Start-up Puts Advertising on the Backs of Students

March 6, 2010 – WeWearYou.com, an Ann Arbor start-up wants to wear your company on their backs — literally.

Christopher Boll and Brian Hurd, two Juniors at the University of Michigan, recently launched WeWearYou.com, an advertising and marketing agency built upon “t-shirt” advertising. The company outfits students with shirts bearing a client’s logo and they continue their day, wearing the shirts wherever they go. 

In addition, the client receives exposure via Facebook, Twitter, flyering, and numerous other avenues. Interested businesses simply pick a given number of calendar days and send in their design.

In less than a month, WeWearYou.com has already had over 2,000 unique visits to its website.  This led the Ann Arbor T-Shirt Company, a full service t-shirt printing studio, to forge a partnership with the young entrepreneurs. At about $100 per day, WeWearYou offers effective advertising priced well below other forms of marketing.

“We realized a glaring vacancy in the world of traditional advertising, the absence of mobility and exposure”, said Christopher Boll.  “Stationary ads such as billboards, web, and print ads remain stagnant in the mobile world we live in today. WeWearYou recognizes this reality and redefines how businesses broadcast their services”.

    Way to go Brian! Good luck to you and Chris.

    Does he have relatives in G.P? There are lots of Bolls on this side of town.

    And Happy St. Patrick’s Day-
