I admit I was tired of hearing about the new iPhone release. I don’t have the “old” iPhone and I generally live a full life with my crappy cell phone at my side. My cell phone doesn’t even pick up a signal at Denver International Airport … something that drives me crazy when I travel; and that I completely forget about once I’m home. I don’t make enough calls to have a monthly plan. As much as I love tech toys, I can’t get excited about cell phones. Maybe it’s because I’m not really that verbal. I’m more of a writer. I’d be perfectly happy with duct tape on my mouth and a keyboard in my hand (come to think of it, that would make my husband delirious with joy).
HOWEVER one of the blogs I read on internet marketing is partnering with a marketing firm to give away a new iPhone. And if I post about their contest, I get not one, not two, but FIVE entries to win this iPhone. And here’s the best part – I don’t want the iPhone for it’s calling features. I want to use the itty-bitty keyboard feature and Twitter while I’m out and about! Of course the idea is that more people will enter the contest if I post about it – but we all know you are one of ten people (including my relatives) that read this blog right now, so I’m not too worried about the competition. Oh, the joys of a new blog!
Social Media Magic
June 7th, 2008 Annie Posted in Internet Marketing 2 Comments »
One of my favorite Tweeters (also one of several great mods in the upcoming 2008 Thirty Day Challenge) has written a very clever article about my favorite topic — leveraging social media. In seven simple steps, Allison Reynolds shows us how to turn a single piece of brilliant content into a whole bushel of goodness.
The icing on the cake is that she took the time to make a pretty diagram for those of us who really don’t understand anything without pictures.
Speaking of pictures, how about this sloth!! I stole him from Allison’s article. Yeah, the one about social media. It’s magical how she works the sloth bit in. I’d say more, but I don’t want to ruin it for you. Here’s the link — I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
