We do not do anything like that. I do not believe there is much trick-or-treating going on in an office building.

Yes we do. We have a day care in our shopping center & it's great to see the kids all dressed up.

We don't do any prospecting on them.

Pretty hard to include another subject in Halloween or to switch the subject. How about a separate sign where it can be seen by parents that says: Parents we have a treat for you too in regards to any Real Estate transaction...

We always have candy out, but rarely do children come up to our suite.  However, we do have visitors I have caught brining a bowl with them, to fill it up and return back to their office (w/in the building) with it!  I stopped one guy doing it.  He was caught with hand in jar, dumping candy into his own bowl, and laughed, saying, " I just wanted a few."  I replied, "a few is fine, a whole bowl is beyond rude."  He stared at me in disbelief and said, "really?"  What nerve!

Our office is our home, which is not in a subdivision, so no kids stop by. But if you have lots of kids and parents come by it seems like a great way to hand some kind of marketing out with candy. Even just a business card attached to the candy or something? -K
