Mark Your Calendars: Great Day on the Horizon

Put a Big Green Circle for Go on March 29. That is the day that something big in your life will happen if you just follow the instructions below. By doing so, you create happiness, do something good and feel great all at the same time. It's like Christmas in March. All you need to do is buy a copy of Age of Conversation from Amazon.com to support the Social Media Bum Rush!

But you have to put a hold on your buy-the-book enthusiasm until March 29. Here's why: Chris Wilson has set out a plan of action designed to push the Age of Conversation up the best seller charts. Here's how it works:

Plan of Action for March 29, 2008

• Buy the Book & send others to buy the book. This is the number one call to action, because this is where we want to see the most impact. NOTE: Please buy one copy at a time because Amazon counts bulk orders once, and please use this affiliate link, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1847992994?ie=UTF8&tag, which will help us in tracking sales. Remember, all the proceeds from the book sales and referrals will go to charity.
• Blog About It - Make sure you have a prominent link to the Amazon listing so that readers can easily purchase the book.
• Twitter Commentary - Join Gavin (@servantofchaos), Chris (@Freshpeel) and Drew (@DrewMcLellan), as they give a Bum Rush play-by-play on Twitter.
• Trackback or Comment on the post that Chris leaves on March 29, at 12 a.m. CST, so that everyone can follow the conversation and help promote exposure on social sites (Digg, StumbleUpon, Del.icio.us, etc.).
• Digg the posts listed on Chris' site and send emails and shouts to friends requesting Diggs.
  Stumble the posts listed and tell friends to do the same.
• Bookmark your posts on Del.icio.us
• Add your post to other social media outlets ( Technorati, Ma.gnolia, Furl, BlinkList, Newsvine, Facebook, etc.).
• Send an old-fashioned email to your friends about the Bum Rush for AoC.
• Keep talking. Get on ooVoo, iChat, Aim, or where ever you like to talk, and start talking.

What you can do right now

• Spread the word - Surely you are connected to people outside of your marketing cronies. Start talking … hence the word “conversation” in the title of the book.
• Add the Join the Rush Badge to your Blog or Web page. (Just copy and paste the HTML: <a href="http://freshpeel.com/2008/03/AOC_BumRush_March/"><img src="http://www.freshpeel.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/AOC_banner.jpg" alt="Join the Age of Conversation Bum Rush on March 29th" /></a>)
