So despite what I do for a living--work with companies to share the benefits of social media--I haven't ever been asked to pitch product, or prove via my own means that social media gets stuff done. Until today.
I'm in Cincinnati at P&G for what some is calling a digital hack night. They are making me work for my supper! They've issued a challenge--for me and about 100 other digital people--to raise money for one of their Tide''s successful charities, Loads of Hope. In other words, to put my money where my laptop is and to show the folks here how it's done. OK, so I need to Tweet for my supper, sort of.
I didn't realize how competitive I am. I feel like I'm defending freaking democracy or something. So here I am blogging (Chas from Federated is sitting next to me, as is Jason from MySpace) thinking, how to we get folks to buy T-shirts?
Tell you what, if you don't buy one to help victims of natural disasters, then buy one because they look cool. If you don't care about looking cool, do it to prove that social media works. If you don't care if we can prove that social media works, then do it because at some point I lent you a pen, or held the elevator door, or you are my mother. Pleeeeeeeease buy a shirt before 9p 11a ET at the link below:
