Alright, I was not thinking very realistically, however I was thinking optimistically, and I will not retract the level of fame I invision, but perhaps the level of intricacy. It seems to me that people like selling lemonade; however 72nd and Dodge would be better. The problem is, there is not really any place in omaha that gets heavy pedestrian traffic except for the old market. Instead of a lemonade stand at 90th and center, have one that goes all different places in the city.
Also, look respectable. A bunch of guys in suits selling lemonade is going to get a lot more attention than some kids in tie-dyed westside debate team t-shirts. Also, go on some roadtrips this summer and bring the stand with you (the suits too).
What is going to be most important is shameless self-promotion. Dig into the cyberspace culture and also into the real space culture.
The goal is to get on cable and promote the lemonade in the same way, except on television.
I suggest an info-mercial on late night TV-Guide Channel.
