I want YOU.
It all happens so fast.
First up, Thanksgiving, and then it’s a blur until you find yourself sitting on your living room floor December 25th, surrounded by shredded paper and empty boxes thinking, what the hell just happened here?
Christmas.
Equal parts holiday cheer, equal parts OH MY FUCKING GOD.
If you area small business, this time of year is stressful. Like, never sleep, working constantly, why am I sitting in the bathtub eating maraschino cherries out of a jar in my underwear, stressful.
I want to help.
Times they are a changing. We’re standing in the middle of a stronger than ever movement to give a voice to independent business owners, and encourage consumers to shop locally.
Promoting your business is pricey and complicated. Let me make this easy for you. Through the month of December, I am offering you, small business owners, the ability to promote your shop on the sidebar of my blog at a ridiculously discounted rate.
See that header there in my side bar? Small Business This Christmas?
That’s for you. I want to put your ad there through December 31st, 2011.
The Details…
Price: The ad spaces are $60, running from now through December 31st, 2011
Size: I will run 125px by 125px square ads.
Pssst…they look like this!
Where: Your ad will be in the right sidebar, under the heading Small Business This Christmas!
Why: Because so far this month, I have had over 660k impressions, and my readers are fucking amazing people, you should totally want them to buy your stuff!
So what’s next? Easy. Email me, tell me you want a bazillion eyes on your shop this holiday season, send me your button, and Bob’s your uncle!
Got questions? Send me an email or hit me up on twitter!
Need a great button ad tutorial? I love this one!
Just one more reason you are fucking amazing
Genius. Not only do you help people out with a discounted price but you’re going to make money this holiday season as well. Well played.
Thanks for making it easy for some of us lazy but interested in “sticking it to the man” shoppers. :-) I generally take the easiest route (read: gift cards galore) but clicking on your blog is just as easy.
DAMN THE MAN SAVE THE EMPIRE!
OK, so I want to do this. How the fuck do I make a button?
I linked to a how to at the bottom of the post, SUPER SIMPLE. Picnik.com (Word text and sizing), Photobucket.com, BOOM DONE.
Pretty much, everything you do makes me like you.
So was this your big announcement? Or are you just blowing our minds multiple times this week? :)
Nope, gotta a bit of a reveal Monday, this was just something I have been dying to launch!
monday we have to wait til monday?????
Can I just say this is so awesome that you are doing this. I’ve made it my mission to buy as much small business/etsy stuff this year for X-mas as possible. I’m about 75% done with shopping and so far not one thing was bought at a big retailer.
