Word of mouth advertising

 We could offer incentives and bonuses for customers who help spread a good word about Under Armour. We could create an incentive system where referals could result in free merchandise.

Door to Door marketing campaign

 Sales representatives could trail door to door handing out promotional coupons and helping to inform potential customers about the product lines that we carry.

 This would be beneficial to people who might not have cable T.V. or that don’t listen to the radio.
