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

[dusman]

I don't know if we'll ever top the two megabombs from 2007. The concept was so new and exciting at the time, and now it's been turned into a product...a great one, to be sure, but a product nonetheless...I figure we can reliably count on 1-2 million per MB

If this moneybomb only gets 1-2 million for Ron Paul... I will resign my efforts towards making these successful, by shifting the dynamic of how all moneybombs this year have been approached.

I expect a post in this thread afterwards of your candid surprise how far off you are vs. ever seeing an official resignation from myself in this thread.

Do any of these look reasonable to consider?

So I was just thinking. Forgive me if this was already posted, I didn't read the whole thread. RP has 100,000 individual donors reported. If each of us gave $100 on the 19th, the campaign would have more cash on hand than Romney.

The Ron Paul campaign has been soliciting those 100,000 to get involved in the Black This Out moneybomb. You can see how much has been pledged through those efforts by viewing: http://www.ronpaul2012.com/pages/mbpledgebto.html?pid=1012

We just broke 15k attending on Facebook

I don't think Newsmax viewership is pro Paul.

For those of you that want to run Adwords to promote the MB, I have some extra Adwords coupons ($50 each) for you. I'm banned from Adwords for some unrelated activities.

I think there are a couple guys here doing this. Jordie and Ventron I think?

Gerryb as well.

Whatever happened to InfoWars advertising? I stopped following the thread because there were too many naysayers condemning the idea.

 

[dusman]

I've emailed them numerous times through various ways with no response. Pretty unfortunate.

However, I just got these numbers from Lew Rockwell:

B1 is unavailable, which is the spot at the top of every article. We can do C4 on the blog or A3 on the front page. http://www.lewrockwell.com/advertising/zones-prices.html

$200.00 per week.

I also have a widget for the size of the A3 and C4. C4 is at the top of every blog post.

^I say we go for this. $200 is not that much either, I'm sure we can pull the money together if you start a thread/chip in.

Only 747 pledges so far today!

We need to keep on pushing!

We must break yesterday's record!

We need a minimum of 1,500 new pledges!

 

[pauliticalfan]

Any idea why FB attendance is so slow today? Is it because it's a Friday?

 

[Bobcat]

We have to keep pushing.

We will not reach 25,000 if we do not keep breaking our records.

If you have not yet invited your facebook friends to attend, please do so immediately!

 

[parocks]

Will the people attending still see posts after the event? If so, do they need to unattend to stop messages? Can we get these folks to sign up to the official campaign? Maybe we write a declaration of "how we Win" and post it?

Something like...

We stay together.
Keep in constant contact with each other
Sign up to the official campaign website
ETC..ETC...

Send an email on Oct 19.

Send another email later with instructions about the Veterans Day moneybomb and whatever else dusman or whoever wants to put in the email.

 

[Bobcat]

Keep on inviting people folks!

We are only up to 764 pledges today!

Please spend a few hours of your time inviting people!

Dusman, is there anyway we can get Facebook to draw an image off the website when linking to BlackThisOut.com? I see people linking to it and asking for pledges, but these updates are bland text only updates. We need Facebook to use a promotional image when linking to the website. Is there any way to do this? Maybe it will help pick the pledges up.

Are we going to keep breaking our record?

Oct 07 - 8,893 (+483)
Oct 08 - 9,302 (+409)
Oct 09 - 9,840 (+538)
Oct 10 - 10,713 (+873)
Oct 11 - 11,799 (+1,086)
Oct 12 - 12,904 (+1,105)
Oct 13 - 14,380 (+1,476)

If we do not keep beating our daily record, we will not reach 25,000!

Even if it slows down today or the next day, we might make it up over the last couple days. I can imagine over 2,000 attendees a day when the 19th gets really close.
