I feel like it's only PR for them during contest-time. The fans they got on facebook or the people who started to pay attention to them and did not get a print will probably not care much about Lilly again until the next contest.

i also want them to do this more than yearly- i'll hold my breath until they give me a SK print!

I agree with this. I'll be honest and say that I was really thinking about it and if I ever wanted to start a business-I would most likely connect whatever I am marketing to Greek life because you know there will always be people who will buy it. Look at some of the ugly Greek items they sell out there-and people buy it! I think you commented about the vast amount of Alumnae and Collegians-that's so true. Even if I don't buy a print, I have sisters at other schools who will make up for me not buying any by buying up the entire line of LP (should they make one for my GLO). That's why I think LP will be def. doing another promotion like this and eventually open it up to all the 26 NPCs (and possibly other councils).

I could see them opening up to maybe NPHC, because they also have so so so many collegiate and alumnae members. I don't, however, see them making prints for professional GLOs. From a business perspective, making a print and products that 100,000+ women might be interested in is much smarter than making one with 10,000+ women.

I could see them wanting to do NPHC but it not happening. I know (and someone who knows more can correct me/add on) that the NPHC is VERY particular about the use of their letters. Members do not use their letters in fabrics that are not their color/fabrics with any pattern on them. I just can't see an NPHC giving lilly the go ahead to put letters into a print since they are so stringent (from what I learned about the NPHC in college) about letters.

Anchors (and owls) are on everything right now. I've always envied DG and XO for having such trendy symbols-- It's hard to pull off kites, and stars on anything just brings us all back to middle school
