ABG Woo Me: How have I made an impact

While I was working as an organizer of the team marketing for the technical fest of our university, the major goal of our team is to attract sponsors and to increase the number of participants taking part in various events of the fest. We as a team are always enough with the number of students from our own university taking participation in the events. However, my team faced with the challenge of bringing a greater number of external participants to take part in the various events of the fest, since the previous version of the fest had quite low amount of external participation. I suggested a solution in which each of our team members will go to the institutes in their respective hometowns along with two other team members and conduct entry-level events related to the main events of the fest and also a quiz, assuring that winners of that entry-level events and the quiz will be provided with one-way travel expenses and also entry into the final round of the events, where the prize money is quite hefty. My team head was quite amused by this suggestion, but also had a benefit of doubt due to the costs involved in following this strategy. However, I made him understand that this solution is going to work and took responsibility for conducting the entire event.  This strategy of us worked wonderfully and helped the team in two ways, one in attracting maximum number of external participants and the other in helping team members know each other on a more personal level increasing the amount of enthusiasm they put into the team.
