Giveaway News From Bernie

Hey all you Product Creation Giveaway partners!  I thought I would tell ya why some of the gifts are disappearing.

No freakin’ referrals!

A giveaway is a simple concept.  A group of partners get together and supply a gift in return for ALL OF THE PARTNERS promoting the giveaway.

We have some partners kicking some serious posterior, like Odinn Sorensen and Scott Drake, while others who will remain nameless are simply along for a free ride.  I say they will remain nameless, but I am going to start a database of freakin’ freeloaders so that other giveaway owners can remove them from their contributor lists, so that they don’t get any more opt-ins without promoting.

Why so harsh?

Think about it.  Micheal, Odinn, Stephanie, Scott and a host of others are making their list available to everyone else.  They are diluting their own money making in order to participate in a giveaway where they stand to gain a few new subscribers.

That is a risk.   And by allowing people to just steal their opt-ins without contributing a few new people to the mix, that is just wrong.

I had a complaint about some of the gifts not working, so I freakin’ deleted them.  I get so freakin’ tired of answering support emails, that I just say screw it.  The morons who can’t upload a working zip file won’t get any subscribers from us… period!  I mean, how tough is it to test your downloads?

Ranting is supposed to be good for your health, so I should be able to live at least a couple more years (unless pictures of me start circulating on the web).  But I digress.

Micheal asked me (truth be told, he said “get your lazy ass back to work, or I will fire you so fast it will make your head spin as fast as your eyeballs do after a double shot of espresso!”)  to start deleting the gifts of anyone without at least two referrals.  Since I love the dirty work, I accepted with glee!

So get out there and promote, so I don’t have to delete so many gifts!  Think of the subscribers you are going to get as your gift moves up the ranks!

Have a freakin’ great day!

PS - Micheal is launching a blogging school that won’t cost you an arm and a leg! (maybe just a finger and a toe…he he) And he is looking for people who are interested in doing some blogging teleseminars!

Just email us and we’ll get something set up!
