Black This Out, Want $6,000,000? We Need THE ENTIRE MONTH for Promotion & 25,000 Attendees

I have a much higher goal in mind. I want 100,000 donors. When I started promoting this weeks ago we had 17 attendees and it took all day to get 10 more. Last week we suddenly had a day where we had 50 people attend. I think in the past 24 hours we had 200 more. It is spreading! This happens exponentially. Heck, let's get one million!! Ok..so I am a little enthusiastic....lol

However you get the word out here are some great marketing points for this one:

1. it is a total grassroots effort. We can show what WE can do when we all work together. This needs to be as big as our biggest mbs ever.

2. Anytime you see anyone talk about the media bring this up. This is the Black this out moneybomb! We won't let them black this out. ItsTime..Dusman...whichever...would you change the middle word to be all caps? So it looks like this....Black THIS Out Moneybomb. To put an emphasis on the fact that they can't black out THIS huge event.

3. This is held on the anniversary of the date the British surrendered and we won the Revolutionary War. It is time to win the new Revolution...the Ron Paul revolution!!!

I think those are three very hot ways to promote this. I am so excited to see everyone working on this together!!!! Fantastic folks!!! This is what we need. When we work together, nothing in the world will stop us!!!

If you write articles...please include a link to both pledge pages....if you do videos...do the same. This is going to be THE one folks. We have a full month. The trick is for all of us to tell everyone about it. I agree about all the suggestions so far. What about texting too? I know people can send out mass texts that get spread everywhere...can we do that too? (Old person here who doesn't exactly know what she is asking..but can it be done?)

Nick...I adore the suggestion about the forums putting up a counter for this one!!

If the last moneybomb taught us anything, it is that we need to work to make these things work. We can do the work!!! I am watching it work.

to the poster who talked about sending out messages to all their friends on facebook..would you please tell me how in a message? I have gathered over 2000 friends in the past month, so I can send it out to all of them. I have been doing it one at a time, I would love a way to do that better.

Seriously people! We can get 100,000 or more to donate on one day. I know we can. As soon as we reach that 25,000 goal, I say we raise it again!

But one thing...I don't know about the campaign getting involved. I don't know about you, but I got 7 messages from the campaign in 2 days asking for money for moneybombs. I was ready to block all emails from them. I say, we do this the old fashioned personal way...with us....working together! Getting excited!! Don't panic if we don't get tons of people in this next week..it is happening...it will happen faster and faster as we keep working. Then it will really pick up steam!!

Let's go win another Revolution!!!!!!
 
Alright guys, I made a new test video of my cousin snowboarding to show off an example of the annotated text we could use to add to the end of these viral videos. Here is the full text...

2 Goals - 25,000 pledges & $6,000,000 for Ron Paul!

The October 19th "Black This Out" Money Bomb is fast approaching! Inspired by the MSM's blackout of all Ron Paul coverage, the grassroots plan on throwing a 24 hour fundraising event that is so huge, not even the MSM can hide it!

The goal is to raise $6,000,000 in a single day for Ron Paul, but this can ONLY be achieved if we can get 25,000 people to pledge their support at www.BlackThisOut.com. We've done the math. Without 25,000 pledges, NO $6,000,000!

This is the big one! Promote this thing all you can! Do it for Ron Paul! Do it for the future of America!

Separate box - Pledge Your Support at www.BlackThisOut.com or Click the Link in the Description Below

Unfortunately, from what I can tell it is impossible to use annotations to link to websites outside of Youtube, so they'll either need to enter the link themselves or scroll down to the description. Check out the end of this test video and tell me how you like it. Will the annotations do as an advertisement for the money bomb?
 
When I made the annotation on my video, I just linked it to the Black This Out youtube video. I figured that was a good place to send people.
 
I suggest you cut those 5 lines into just 1 line. You don't give them all the information all out at once that'll scare a lot of regular people away and they wont even bother to read it. One headline and one sentence that's how you grab people's attention. That's why I asked you what do you want me to say :) coz 1 line has to be able to convey all 5 lines. that's how advertising works :)

How do we contact meetup groups ? And all the facebook groups for Ron Paul ? There should be thousands there...

How about trying to contact official campaign & Rev Pac & C4L & YAL and organisation like that ? DailyPaul owner ? Lew Rockwell ?

How about trying to contact people who organised earlier moneybomb and could have mailing lists ? Forum member Gage and Trevor Lyman ?


I can´t do this, cause of my bad english. But i hope that someone takes a mission about it. It shouldn´t take so long but it could generate easily anything from 1 - 1 million new people!

Really! I ask someone to do this cause it could have huge impact with just few e-mails!

This has potential i think... it´s worth trying to send some e-mails around!

PLEASE SOMEBODYYYYYY!

Have commented over 100 youtube videos today! :) Anyone matching me....

I know the idea is to get as many folks as possible so that no one has to donate much at all...but keep in mind Ron pays a fee for each donation. A transaction fee. I am afraid if people only donate 10 bucks and do it over and over, a lot of that money will get eaten up in fees. Maybe we just leave out a figure all together and let people donate what they want?

My favorite is Fuck the Media! lol Although it might offend some folks.. it sure made me laugh!

Ok, I was worried about this. Two things we need to absolutely convey are the dollar and pledge goal. Here is my attempt.

"2 Goals - 25,000 Pledges & a $6,000,000 day for Ron Paul - www.BlackThisOut.com"

Opinions?
 
qwerty..how are you commenting on Youtube vids? When I try to link to the facebook page or the website, I get an error message. How do I get around the sensors?

I would word '$6,000,000 day for Ron Paul' differently. It has to be about the message, not the man.

your gonna scare people with putting a lot of numbers into one sentence like that :) keep it inviting. I know we want to convey our goals, but we gotta think about how itll look to regular people (who are only semi-interested) not diehard RP supporters like ourselves hehe :)

lol im glad you like it :) I know it would appeal to a few people i know haha

You're right. This is about getting people to go to the website. They can find out about the goals once they're on the website. We just need something catchy to get them there in the first place. We need more suggestions.
