You scanned the shirt
A business built by college students, reinventing the advertising game.
We're three people from Frederick, Maryland who thought local advertising was broken — so we started printing it on something people actually want.
How this bottle got to you.
Four steps. None of them involve you paying for anything.
-
One business buys the label
A business that wants to reach a certain group of people pays for a whole batch of water. Their name and artwork go on the label. They bought an ad — it just happens to be wrapped around a bottle.
-
We print it and fill it
We design the label with them and send it to a bottling plant in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Then we deliver the finished cases somewhere the people they want to reach already spend their time.
-
Another business hands it to you
It's free because it was paid for long before you walked in. No signup, no email, no catch. The business on the label would rather you drink their ad than walk past it.
-
And gets paid for every bottle
The place handing these out never buys a thing from us — we pay them for every bottle they give away. That's why they said yes, and why the cooler keeps getting refilled.
That's the whole model. An advertiser funds it, a venue hands it out and gets paid, and you get a cold bottle of water for nothing.
Want your business on the next run?
Five hundred bottles, one venue you've approved, and your name in a few hundred hands. We'll send a written quote.
