The
Springwise Blog has a story on a pilot program in Minneapolis (where I'll be next week) called Get Home Free. Here's how it works:
Launched in eleven Minneapolis suburbs this month, Get Home Free
is a flat rate, prepaid cab card that gets its holder home safely.
Mainly targeted at teenagers and college students, the concept's
initiators are aiming to help out kids who are stuck with car trouble,
have been drinking, or whose ride home has fallen through. Cardholders
place a call to the Get Home Free hot line, and a car is immediately
dispatched to bring them home, no questions asked.
If your firm is looking for a image-boosting promotion, this one just might work -- especially if you regularly represent clients accused of DUI. Having your firms name and number on the back of each card isn't a bad idea either.
