Looking For Fillers Asap!

[AJOY724]

I am looking for anyone interested in sending me samples, business cards, or any promotional materials you may have. I am going to start handing out goodie bags at my parties with your materials. There is no limit to how much I will accept and no minimum.....anything will work! e-mail me at spagirl724@hotmail.com for the address to send materials. Thanks!:rolleyes:

I am very curious as to why you would want to hand out goodie bags with other people's brochures, cards, etc.

This isn't a negative post - I'm just intrigued; this is a new approach and I'm wondering how it works both from a set-up point of view and if you get the results you are looking for.

This is something done by tons of people....the groups I belong to in yahoo all support each other and we do this to help promote fellow moms. Plus, the customers enjoy getting little treats from others to sample and to learn about businesses they may have never heard of otherwise. I am surprised you have never heard of this because almost all the groups I belong to the ladies do this.

I can't recall the website name - I'll search for it and repost - but some company gives out free 3 day/ 2 night vacation certificates. I think you have to buy them ($1.00 maybe?) - then THEY get the free hotel stay, no airfare included, of course.

Just a suggestion - not a plug!!!

Yeah it's called twentydestinations.....A girl I know uses them all the time and she said she has never had a problem. You have to pay a $15 processing fee to use them and taxes on your room, but that's it (and of course provide your transportation.) They are 20 cents each. Here is the link:

Audrey - nope, never heard of it!!

Travel certificates - the people who use them aren't being roped into some kind of time share presentation are they? I am, by nature, cynical LOL!!

[AJOY724]

No....from what my friend says that uses them all you do is pay taxes and that processing fee.....sounds too good to be true in a way, but I guess the hotel sees it as a way to get you there once and hope you will come back as a paying customer. She said there was no presentation. I guess she gave like $100 of them away in the last 6 months and no one has complained. I haven't personally tried it yet.;)

Along the same lines -- a lot of internet marketers team up in this way...

One person has a product they are selling... they solicit 'free bonuses' from their colleagues.

The sales letter will pitch all the bonuses along with the main product.

Everyone wins. The product gets sold -- the customer gets the freebies and other marketers get the exposure.

I think it's a neat way to network :)

I think it's a trully lovely way to help fellow moms out.

Talk to you soon.
