'Altruistic' business model for Smart Drugs?
Original post in this thread

There's this 'altruistic' business model where for each unit of a given product you ship to a customer you give a unit away for free to someone in need. I'm thinking about implementing this with the proprietary smart drug Caballo that I'm launching soon. We would give a monthly supply to a University student for every unit a customer purchased.
It adds like 25%-35% to the cost for the customer, I would obviously provide the actual customer with a photo, first name and country where the recipient of their generosity lives.
I'd love to get some feedback, is this business model...
1. Great idea
2. Evil genius
3. Or just annoying, thinly veiled self serving marketing
4. Totally inappropriate to do with a Nootropic product
Just respond with 1, 2, 3 or 4.

Obviously! What university student wouldn't want their picture sent to a stranger, like they are a child dying of hunger in Africa? If you could get Alyssa Milano for a commercial that would just seal the deal! Perhaps some Alanis Morissette playing in the background. You could call it Tom's Nootropics.
