Anyhere on William Nicol in the morning from 6AM, park your van on the middleman island so you can handout both sides.
I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.

Around November last year there was a jacobs van parked at Lonehill shopping centre for two days in a row, handing out free coffee. I was the only one that went there. Even with them handing out free coffee the public still rather came and bought there coffee from me. Not sure if shopping centre's are going to work.

Find any generally-backed-up intersection. A guy used to (maybe still does) sell on Conrad Drive, Blairgowrie, just before you hit Jan Smuts. Incredibly well supported. So maybe look at intersections such as the traffic circle where Republic Rd becomes 3rd Ave going into Linden, or Malibongwe and Republic. It has to be seriously stop-start though so that you can explain it's for free and whatever your marketing "spiel" is.

You hit the nail on the head there, I am running the Jacobs campaign this year and we are looking for better venues. Footcount is Key.

Sorry for a late reply, I lost this topic as I did not receive any notifications.
