Black This Out, looking to make a HUGE push

[Spanky]

I was told by a member to make a separate thread so I did.

Here's my plan

Raise enough money for 10,000 BTO flyers http://ronpauldesigns.blogspot.com/p/specials.html

The sooner I raise the money, I can order and get them! I plan on doing a 6 day blitz of sun up to sun down passing these out and sitting down with families.

I live on a campus of 14k students
Indiana-heavy republican state, plus I going to school in the 2nd biggest city here
Also my hometown is the orthopedic capitol of the world, where I can get some BIG donors, and even bigger for our PAC.

Thanks for looking! Ron Paul 2012!

Has my donation shown up yet?

[Spanky]

It is not showing up on chip in, but it IS showing up in paypal, after I'm guessing the fees, it's 38.14? That's what's showing in my account!

Yeah, I gave 40USD.
Steep fees :(

That's paypal, but it's $38 more than we had!

Now we need $139.86, I'll edit the chip in to show that!

edit: when I go to MY chip ins, it shows it, but on the actual link page, it does not show your donation (I do have it though)

Looking at the RSS feed, my donation is there. The actual widget takes a bit longer.

So don't worry about editing the chipin.

Good, glad you could see it. I'm hoping I can order them tomorrow and get them before my friday push!

[Spanky]

It is now showing up on the widget. Come on guys, let's make this happen!

Title of that first video is very misleading. But all of the videos are good!

Shameless bump before bed.

Come on guys, youth movement here. Instead of drinking and partying on the weekends, I'm going to go out and spread the word and get voters. I'm ready to help us get to 6 million!

[Paulatized]

Just chipped in 20. You're going to need a lot of help and good organization to hand out that many flyers. Recruit a team of people to help you and map out a plan of coverage. Thanks for taking this on, I like to see ambition for the cause of liberty.

Already have 10 people willing to help.

I got the donation. Thank you!

Let's go guys, a little over a third of the way there!

[Spanky]

last bump I'll be making, if I don't garner anymore interest, I'll add whatever I have to and just get 2000 or however much I can.

But if we can raise enough for 10k, like I said I have interest in 5-10 people willing to help pass out and spread the message knowledgeably.

Young generation revolution right here :D thanks guys!

The objective here of 10,000 BTO flyers seems way to low.
A few years back I was involved in distributing flyers for an organisation. Typically one person could give out a 800-1000 cards an hour, but we would work in a set of four and give out aroud 20K in a day which included stopping for a snack and a drink.
The cards we used where 2" by 3.5" flat business cards made from card not paper. Four of us would get together, one person would drive and we would go to big car parks. Typically big shopping centres, big show grounds, multi storey places, anywhere with lots and lots of cars. The place to put the cards is to slide the edge in the bottom of the drivers window (you could place them up under the top edge of the window which saves reaching down on low sports cars, or in the door handle on a few new cars where the window fitting is extremely tight although that is rare). Always drivers side because you'd know at least the driver would see it. Once you do a few hundred you can put them on effortlessly as your walking by without any delay, then you walk to the next car and do the same. Some times to make it fun we would race each other. Occasionally(about once an hour) people will stop you and ask what your doing and that is a chance to talk to them about it. Once or twice over a period of six months or so a car park wardens would not allow it and then we'd just drive off to the next car park. Best to check that flyers on cars is legal in your state before you start, because you'll be on CCTV in many places. Walking through car parks is not for everyone but if your the kind of person that is motivated it's really a simple task.
Hope that helps.

I would definitely would order and do WAY more....but I'm having troubles even gaining enough for 10k :/ I'm a poor college kid, all I can really do is give my time and spread the word

[Spanky]

Trust me if I could raise enough for let's say 50k-100k, I would drive to my state capitol next weekend and take this to the next level

Great job organizing thus far.

Document the handouts well, and I'm sure people will donate more generously to proven results.

That's why I'm at the VERY least trying to start with 5k. As it'll still allow me a little time to sit down with people who have questions and answer them. Then the next week I can take it to the streets of Indianapolis!

[Spanky]

need about $30 more for the first 5k. I can do a trial run and document the first 5k, and then hopefully I can do like a 50k flyer handout before the 19th

[JamesButabi]

$10 more headed your way. Good luck man. Make sure people you are giving these too realize tens of thousands will be joining them.

While all my roommates drank last night, I was here, getting ideas on what to say and make sure I spread the word :)

[Spanky]

it starts with us, the street runners. People people people, we can do this.

let me prove my 5k gets out, and then let's run a 100k campaign RIGHT before the 19th

I am willing to take a day off of school and run an 8 day blitz if we can make this happen.

I can talk to people, I can get people to donate, I can get people to sway their vote. But we need to do this soon (along with the radio thread)

I'm sending out the texts to my team now, going to be a busy weekend! I'm hoping I can run a small "moneybomb" to get some the weekend before the moneybomb. If I can raise enough for 25-50k fliers. I will be painting the town in Indianapolis, Indiana!

[Spanky]

By the way, justin the guy that makes them just contacted me. Should be sending them out soon, let's hope I get them quickly! :D
