Back-to-School Prep + Sampler Event July 15 – July 23
Can you all believe we’re already talking about back-to-school prep? It’s crazy how quickly this summer break flew by for us.
What is the Back to School Sampler Event?
We’ve teamed up with a bunch of amazing brands and blogs for a Back To School Sampler Event! If you participated in any of the Ultimate Online Baby Shower Sampler events, you’re already familiar with how this will work. If not, prepare for an overload of IMPORTANT information!
Step One – RSVP for the event!Click here or use the button below to let us know you plan on participating in this event. By doing so, you’ll be entered to win a grand prize gift basket valued at over $250.
Step Two – Mark Your Calendars for FLASH GIVEAWAYS! As I mentioned, there will be lots of fun flash giveaways throughout the week. When you RSVP for the event, you will be given access to the full calendar of flash giveaways. These flash giveaways will be held multiple times per day on the participating bloggers’ Facebook pages. Print this calendar, put it on your fridge, next to your bed, on your bathroom mirror… memorize it!
Step Three – Wish For It! What’s unique about a Sampler event is that only a Facebook FRIEND can send you a sample from the participating brands. You will not be able to send one to yourself so you’ve got to WISH FOR IT! After RSVP’ing for the event, you will not only receive the calendar of events but the links to wish for each sample! Let your friends know that you would LOVE to receive a sample from each participating brand. I’ve included an example of what a Wish for It Page will look like:
Hint: Buddy up with Facebook friends to send each other sample from the participating brands.
Step Four – Send Samples to Friends! This is the most exciting time of the whole event. You have to act at the exact moment that the sampling events begin because thousands of samples will be gone in a matter of minutes. Be ready Monday, July 20th – Friday July 24th for these events. We will be announcing the event updates on our Facebook page, so make sure you follow us!
Important – Be sure to follow all of our participating brands and bloggers on Facebook!
