Republican National Convention Fundraising Bleg

by Sean Hackbarth

Because I’ve been busy with some projects and travel made me do a poor job pushing my Republican National Convention fundraising drive. Immediately after my announcement two donations totaling $30 came in. It’s a start, but I really have to ramp things up.

I need at least $2000 to cover trip expenses. You’re help is needed. All that’s needed are 200 people to give $10 to reach my goal. I have over 250 RSS subscribers. Each of them could give $8 and the goal would be met.

What will sponsors get for giving? They will have the inside track to how I cover the convention. They will receive a heads-up on upcoming stories as well as special access to me. I will also give sponsors priority for their story ideas and interview questions. If the sponsors have websites or products of their own I will also mention them and plaster their logos all over TAM. Requests aren’t limited to these. Send an e-mail my way (sean–at–theamericanmind–dot–com) with your sponsorship ideas.

Above is my ChipIn widget. Through it you can donate safely via PayPal and allows all of us to follow the progress of this fundraiser.

If you want to send me a check by snail mail e-mail me for my address.

If you can’t donate please send this post to your friends, family, and social networks. If you’re a credentialed weblogger also lookiing for sponsorship let me know and we’ll pool our marketing resources.
