TeaParty11.com - Dec 16th Money Bomb - Ron Paul Tea Party

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.

That sounds good. Just let us know if he doesn't want to do it or if he doesn't answer back so we can come up with something else. I think we should tie it to our official goal though, 1,000 people for 65 pledges. Then if we can get this started early enough, we can go around and promote the competition telling them they can win a free t-shirt if they were to help bring in 65 pledges. I believe 65,000 pledges is possible, but ONLY if we can get the word out about the competition so that around 1,000 people sign up to win something. Not all of these people will make it to 65 pledges, but others that surpass this goal will help to pick up the slack.

Also, this banner on the Facebook page needs to be updated with the new goals...

Last time I looked it was 1,400 something, and now it's at 1,506, so yeah.

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

Thanks, yeah, I'm in the market for some new hosting perhaps, the timing of that was extremely embarrassing too, I was all excited for getting on the coalition :o Fixed now.

I was looking at the pledges and wondering what's going on with that. It's been shared 6200 times and only 1500 pledges... I suppose there are more and more who feel they don't need reminders, and folks who don't think they'll have $100, and more and more already maxed out... what else is going on here? Are we that far from saturated or does everyone know about it but aren't pledging?

i just think that people don´t want to give their e-mails...

13k pledges for BTO --> 45k donors... :)
 
How many shares did we have for Black This Out? I think it's that only a small percentage of shares actually pledge.
 
I've been checking Trevor's email updates and it looks like he didn't do daily updates. He did though send an email every 2-3 days, probably to avoid annoying so many people. We should probably space them out in the same way.

Instead of pledges being the decider of who are the winners, why not do what facebook account Jackie Smith is doing. She has posted hundreds of teaparty photo banners and I believe she has single handily got most of the pledges so far. Who ever posts the most teaparty banners wins. Jackie has 1st place and isn't doing it for a prize. So what do you say :) Bannerfon?

I have something better. :)

If you go to Tea Party Competition, you can join a contest. It awards points for:

1) Tagging photos with the TeaParty11 page
2) Making Posts with a link to the TeaParty11 page
3) When you share the TeaParty11 page
4) When you share the TeaParty11 contest
5) When someone signs up for the contest through your link

I'm still trying to figure it out, but it looks pretty awesome actually! The icing on the cake is anyone who joins the contest, gets subscribed into a new e-mail list.. which we can then communicate with outside of Facebook!

Just need to figure out prizes and stuff. It has a feature to do one of the prizes as a raffle, so that would be a good start.

I'll need to design something for it to explain how points are earned and whatnot, as well.

That's correct! If you PM me your email address, I can send you some e-mail with more information!
 
I've probably asked for a redesign of the Facebook event banner over five times in this thread. Is there anyone here that has the image editing skills to do it? Besides updating the Facebook event, I want to see if I can get the Ron Paul 2012 Facebook page to upload the banner so everyone sees it.

That looks awesome, but would it replace the pledge competition on the website?
