Is your phone being bombarded with election "robocalls"? How about your e-mail box -- is everyone you know (and a few you don't) -- forwarding you e-mails that have been forwarded a thousand times already, talking about McCain's economic plan or Obama's get-out-the-vote effort?
Michael Murphy
Viral marketing sounds like a sort of kind of sickness, right? After all who wants to be involved in something that is "viral"? But the concept that a marketing idea can be "spread" like to a virus can have a tremendous effect on your business. If you have ever marveled at how the "gurus" of Internet marketing could have viral explosions and make huge profits, then learn the five basic principles behind viral marketing.
There are some unique sponsorship opportunities available out there, with audiences and cost to fit just about every need and budget. If you are looking for sponsorships for your web site, send us an e-mail ( support@baptistadvance.com ) so that we can include it here.
Featured Opportunity: EyesOntheUSA.com is seeking sponsors for its live Election Day coverage event. Sponsor links will also remain on the home page for 30 days following the election -- or longer, if there is a contested election. There are 5 slots available at $100 each. All links (including your icon) are at the top-left of the home page so nobody needs to scroll to see you. These positions need to be filled ASAP, so a $50 banner advertising credit is being offered on BaptistTop1000.com for each EyesOnTheUSA.com sponsorship purchased by BaptistAdvance readers. Help Christians have a voice this Election Day and get exposure for your web site!
Baptistology.com - 12 slots @ $199/slot; each sponsor will have a button/icon at the top of the home page (where that banner ad currently appears) for the entire year.
BillySunday.org - 12 slots @ $229/slot; each sponsor will have a button/icon at the top of the home page (where that banner ad currently appears) for the entire year + mention in the newsletters;
