A Concord Carpenter Contest


There’s something interesting going on over at A Concord Carpenter Comments. The Concord Carpenter has come up with an innovative way to drive site traffic, gain followers, and appear on other blogs. He’s giving away a socket set and readers of his blog earn entries into the contest by following his blog, posting about his contest on their own blogs (this post earns me two entries!), Tweeting, and emailing others about it.

As readers of Concord Carpenter’s blog know, he’s one creative guy, and I’ve got to hand it to him on this. What a great idea!

As I learn more and more about life around the blogosphere, this is one marketing effort I’ll keep in mind for my own promotional toolbox.

Check out this contest, and while you’re there, look around Concord Carpenter’s blog. As he says, he’s not only a Carpenter; he’s also a Cop and a Character, and all elements of his personality are on display on his blog.
