I'll have some time later this evening, so I'll get that out to you sometime tonight. What is the height constraint? Also, does it need to have the ability to pledge from the widget, because 150px wide is not very much room.

The ability to pledge, I think, is always better. The blogger said there isn't a height constraint. Also, clickable like the others, if it is a widget, would be nice.

The Free Independent Sun graced us with an article to help promote the moneybomb.

These still need added to the coalition:

http://freeindependentsun.com has also put up a widget. No banner to put up.

Also, Ron Paul Flix does not have a widget, would you email them? One that is obvious and on every page would be nice.

http://ronpaulfilm.com has a widget up.

Banner they use: http://ronpaulfilm.com/includes/templates/theme497/images/logo.png

They are also asking for a widget that is 220px or smaller in width.

LibertyClick needs removed until they can get their website sorted out.

Political Realities has added a widget and needs added to the coalition. Looks like they need a smaller one as well:

Man, I thought these were pretty neat: http://www.printglobe.com/Products/ProdDetail~productid~18341~_plist~7_1947_18311_1993.asp

However, they are somewhat expensive and wouldn't be ready in time with a 20 day production cycle, unless we wanted to maybe pass them out right before Iowa Caucus. =/

Any other suggestions for print advertising?

Any other suggestions for print advertising?

The creation of a PDF, and/or a .jpg file that can be printed by any person, at any time, hosted on the teaparty11.com site, a flyer that advertises the T-Bomb, and then some good SEO for the flyer and a push to get "Street Teams" to print and distribute.

This FTW.

Dusman, two questions. Are we still going to be sending daily updates to the email list or have we decided not to do this now? It's getting pretty late, so we better start now if we're going to start doing it. It's intended to keep people focused on our promotion goals and build excitement for the money bomb. They don't have to be long emails. We could just provide some new pledge stats from the website and Facebook event and notify people about any new ways to promote the money bomb.

Also, we need to get the pledge competition underway or else it's going to be too late. Have you figured out the problems with the cheating yet and do we need to raise funds for prizes?

Yes, we will still be doing this. I'll see if I can get this prepared tonight before I head to bed.

I just need someone who would be willing to write the posts or set a schedule for certain people to write them on specific days of the week if that is preferred.

I will work on this tomorrow and prepare a strategy for how to get them out quickly and effectively.

I thought we have a flyer. It is posted on the planning thread.

I still need the websites I posted above added to the coalition and Liberty Click removed.

Do they have any graphic they want us to use?

Contacted them.

just letting you all know that i´m with you on promoting this!

This place is becoming too discouraging to me to visit when i see so few actually helping Ron Paul to win this!

 

[flybeech]

I just checked a Google search for "tea party" and found TeaParty11 has slipped back to 35th place. What's keeping it from going up and what can I do to improve the rankings?

 

[qwerty]

i encourage people to post about the tea party to Ron Paul related facebook walls SEVERAL times a day! It´s working!

update e-mails ???

What about the pledge competition though? I know you said there was cheating with BTO and you were trying to figure out how to prevent it from happening again with the Tea Party competition. Have you figured this out and do we need to start a chipin to pay for any prizes?

Well, we can generally see if they are; however, the problem is how time consuming it is to sort through each pledge.

As for prizes, I've sent a message to the gentleman who has 4,400 t-shirts available. Perhaps if he is for the idea, we can offer t-shirts to everyone who gets 50 pledges (or something similar). If we did that, we could make a goal of 1,000 people getting 50 pledges, which would be 50,000 pledges. I think that would be feasible and would avoid us having to raise a lot of money to create a highly active competition.

If he says yes, I'll start the competition right away. If not, I'm open to ideas to how we put together a competition.

And the daily update e-mails are going out like we talked about ?

Yes, they asked me to help out with it, but I need to figure out how to use MailChimp.
