October 8 October 15 will be National Commercial Week. During this time, Ron Paul TV commercials will air on TVs across the nation.
Your Meetup group is invited to participate in making this week a success for Ron Paul. The only requirement is that your Meetup group raise the required funds (a minimum of $1000) and purchase airtime in your local TV market. Your group can buy airtime on any channel(s) you want, for any amount you want, to air at the times of your choice. Instructions for creating and purchasing an airtime schedule are listed at http://www.operationnh.com/schedules.html.
After you purchase your airtime schedule, your Meetup group will have two Ron Paul TV commercials to choose from, one of which can be viewed at:

The other commercial is currently being produced and will be available for preview at the end of next week. Don't worry about choosing which commercial you want focus on purchasing the airtime. You'll have until 10 days before the ad airs, Sept. 29, to decide which commercial to use.
The sponsor for National Commercial Week, Americans United for Freedom (UnitedForFreedom.US), will be paying BIG money to send out a press release to nearly every media outlet in the country, including 95+% of the TV, newspaper, and radio media outlets nationwide to inform them of National Commercial Week. What does this mean for Ron Paul? Not only will hundreds of thousands of Americans see his commercial on TV, but they will read about our grassroots effort in newspapers and hear about it on the evening news across the nation. That's double the publicity for Ron Paul for free. We would like to inform every single American that the power of the Ron Paul grassroots is limitless. We want to let the country know that Paul DOES have significant support and a significant base, and is a serious contender for President. We want to inform America of what Ron Paul stands for (and allow America to research him on their own on the Internet), because the mainsteam media REFUSES to give him the airtime he deserves.
If your Meetup group would like to participate in National Commercial Week, send your RSVP to info@operationnh.com and include your Meetup name/number, your name and contact info, and which TV market you plan to purchase airtime for (eg your hometown, a neighboring town, an early primary state, etc). You will then be sent further instructions on how to successfully fundraise and purchase airtime so you can help get Ron Paul ads on TV nationwide during National Commercial Week.
Deadlines and Important Notes:
You need to RSVP and purchase your airtime schedule by Monday, September 24 (two weeks prior to the October 8 airing). It is the ad agency's requirement that airtime schedules be purchased at least 2 weeks prior to airing. Although you can RSVP anytime up to the airtime purchase deadline of Sept. 24, we strongly recommend that you RSVP as soon as possible, so you can have ample time to fundraise and we can have ample time to gauge the support for National Commercial Week. We want to be able to tell the media this is going to be BIG.
It's up to you and your Meetup group to fundraise, create an airtime schedule, and purchase the airtime schedule before Sept. 24. Don't worry about which TV commercial you'll be using, this can be decided up to 10 days before the ad is set to air (up to Sept. 29). We can help you, and we can tell you HOW to do everything, but we can't force you to do it. This project is self-administrated.
You can purchase airtime for your locality OR any place in the U.S. An airtime purchase for Iowa or New Hampshire (early primary states), for example, may be more important to you than an airtime purchase for your locality. It's completely up to you and your Meetup group. Also, we advise you to strongly consider late afternoon/early evening/primetime for time slots because although these times are more expensive per commercial, they are far less expensive in cost per 1,000 views.
This can all be summarized in a short paragraph. If you want to participate in National Commercial Week, send an RSVP to info@operationnh.com saying so. Then raise at least $1000. Follow the steps to create your own airtime schedule (operationnh.com/schedules.html), and then purchase your schedule. That's it! Immediately inform us of the schedule you have purchased and the ad you'd like to use (we have until 10 days before it airs to decide on the ad, so don't worry about that). Then, sit back and enjoy all the TV airtime and free press we obtain for Ron Paul. The goal is after National Commercial Week is over with, Ron who!?!?!? will be a phrase of the past.
