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

Oh, and I'm still wondering about the pledge meter. I think it would be a great tool for motivation. Read my replies below if you haven't already. I want to know what Dusman thinks...

I've been thinking, we need something on RonPaulForums that keeps everyone updated on the money bomb's progress. I know we have an updating pledge banner, but that doesn't show us how far away we are from completing our goal. I think it would be a great idea to create a horizontal pledge meter, similar to the SuperVoterBomb money meter that was at the top of the forum for the last couple of weeks. It would show our overall progress and how close we are to reaching our 65,000 pledge goal. It would also create urgency and show people how far away we are from our goal. Would this be simple to create? I think it would help to rally the forum around the pledge goal and get them promoting the website. Not everybody reads these promotion threads, so we need to put this goal right in front of their faces so they're constantly made aware that there's work to be done. Right now everyone seems to be too relaxed and assured of victory. The pledge meter would show them how far away we are from our goal and wake them up to this reality. It doesn't cost any money to fill the pledge meter either, only their time. It might also be a good idea to have some text on the side of the meter that says something like "Learn How to Promote Here" and it would link to my promotion thread. When could something like this be finished?

What do you think about the pledge meter idea Dusman? I think it would really help to rally everyone around the pledge goal, just as it did for the SuperVoterBomb. Not many people even seem to realize we have a pledge goal. I've seen people on here posting about the money bomb that were clueless. This would make everyone aware of the goal and encourage them to promote the website to fill the meter up.
 
Ok, I'm done creating the first TeaParty11 update email. I'm just waiting for WD-NY to check it and send it out. It basically lets people know that if they want the campaign to be able to air the attack ad in Iowa and New Hampshire, then they better start helping out in promotion so we can get the campaign the funding they need to air more TV commercials. The whole email is designed to send people to my promotion thread so they can learn how they can help out. All of them are already signed up, so there's no point in sending them to the website. We just need to get them involved now. The next emails will include more ways for people to help. Oh, I also included an image of a YouTube player that leads people to the new video. I thought it was pretty cool looking in the email and would get people excited that hadn't seen it yet.

Thank you for your great work! :)
 
Trying to get GhoeberX to set his video as a video response, but it's the middle of the night where he is, hopefully he'll see it first thing this AM.

I was actually in a neighbouring country for most of the day (no roaming), that's why it took me so long until I was able to get it on youtube as a video-response!

But I've done the request an hour ago; a bit late and still the question remains whether RonPaul youtube-account will accept the video-response.

Could you try to get the ronpaul2008dotcom channel to post your video ? I think he owns ronpaul.com too...

As far as I know, the campaign gave ronpaul2008dotcom to a supporter. So that's not the same person as ronpaul.com

I'll contact ronpaul2008dotcom anyway! Good idea, qwerty
 
Good idea. I'll start with this one:

Dusman, that Facebook Competition app you're working on, are you trying to make it so it only gives you points when someone pledges?
 
I was forced to create this thread because of the lack of activity surrounding this money bomb...

http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showth...aul-32-Gingrich-21-Romney-17-Cain-15-Perry-7-.........

Dusman, if you are online the best thing we can do right now is to get that pledge meter at the top of RonPaulForums and start this pledge competition. I hope I'm not bugging you, but we seriously don't have a lot of time to get things moving. Is there anything you can tell us about the meter or the competition? Any kind of update at all?
 
Perhaps this lack of activity is the result of this thread being stickied?

Nathaniel wanted it stickied but I don't think that's it, because we have another promotion thread that keeps sinking to the 2nd or 3rd page.
 
The widget on Daily Paul has fallen clear to the bottom... The widget on RonPaul.com is still only at the bottom of their site.
 
Ron Paul Flix still doesn't have a widget.

If there is any reason this won't be successful, it's the fact that not even Ron Paul sites are taking it seriously. I've contacted every single Ron Paul site and supporting site in existence two and three times. You can tell because we have more in the coalition than ever before, but it's only a fraction of the sites out there. Most never replied back.

It really makes no sense, like they don't even care if Ron gets elected or not. Why would they not reply when it would help the campaign? Ron Paul Flix is even hosting TeaParty11 aren't they? They of all the websites should have a banner up. RonPaulVolunteer owns that site. Have you contacted him about it on the forum?

On the forum? No. I have emailed him.
 
Maybe because it would cut out their main advertising space? These guys need to afford to keep the websites running.
