I’m an IZEA Insider! Enter to Win a $25 Target Giftcard!

By Laurie | November 19, 2008

A few weeks ago I applied to become an IZEA Insider, and I am happy to announce that I was selected earlier this week. I am both super excited, and also super stressed. What am I going to name my crew? How am I going to get crew members?

A lot of great bloggers and blogging friends also were selected to be Insiders too, so I know that we will all be competing to add members which makes me a little bit nervous. I don’t have a huge following. I plan to work hard and hopefully recruit some new blogging friends. Do you want to be on my crew? Do you have any words of encouragement for me? Any ideas on names for my crew? Please share them with me in the comments.

IZEA has promised a lot of great perks such as free tickets to IZEAFest and other swag for me to give away to Crew Members. I hope that you will consider joining me. I don’t have all the details yet, but I have a lot of fun ideas that I will be sharing with you soon. I hope that everyone who is local will join me so that we can work together to build a great team. If we get over 50 members, Ted Murphy himself will fly out to speak to our group. How exciting would that be?!

I’m already giving away a $25 Starbucks gift card, but I thought I’d give you some incentive to join and help me out. Holiday shopping is in full swing, so how about a $25 Target gift card? To be eligible to win, simply leave me a comment saying you’d like to join my crew, or with some suggestions for crew names. I have until Friday to get back with Ashley with a decision, so I’ll draw a winner next Thursday night. Thanks in advance for helping me out and for sharing your ideas!

  1. Nice prize Laurie! Everyone could use a gift certificate to Target.

    I know you’ll come up with a fabulous name and we’ll all have a blast :)

  3. Thanks for the encouragement, Jessica! You don’t have to be local, so if you do not join one of the other crews… you are welcome to join mine.

  4. Thanks Heather! I think it will be a lot of fun. I am throwing around a couple of names now, but they still don’t feel all that original. At least we still have a week!

  5. Hey There Fellow Insider!

    Just stopping by to see if I can help with the names. Maybe you can spin this off of your french theme.

    La Bloggers
    Notre Blog Group

    then again since Izea is english only . . .

    Maybe an action concept

    Crew It Forward

    :)

    Don’t include me in your gift card giveaway, save that for one of your readers or crew members. My goal is to help both my own team as well as everyone else too. I don’t see this as a competition but more as a way for us all to get organized…

    Maybe you could call your group

    Bloggers United

    or
    Bloggers Unite!

  17. Jeannie, Thanks so much for writing a post about this and asking your friends to come over. I appreciate you! As soon as I have more details I will let you know.

    Posted by: LaurieNo Gravatar on November 25th, 2008 at 9:25 pm
  18. Thanks for the suggestions and support, Brett! Good luck getting your group going too!

    Posted by: LaurieNo Gravatar on November 25th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
  19. Thanks Stacey! This is a great opportunity if you are interested in blogging and learning how to grow your readership. It will also help you network and allow you to grow your list of customers for your greeting card website. There are lots of cool conferences you can go to also where you can learn a lot. When I have more details I will let you know. In the meantime, you can go to http://socialspark.com and sign up for an account so that when they create the crew groups you can easily join!

    Posted by: LaurieNo Gravatar on November 25th, 2008 at 9:30 pm
  20. Aww… thank you for the sweet comment and for the suggestions, Forgetfulone! When I have more details I will let you know. Are you a member of PayPerPost or SocialSpark? If not, go over and join at http://socialspark.com so that you can easily join my crew when they open it up. It’s so nice to meet you (another Texan, too!) and I look forward to getting to know you!

    Posted by: LaurieNo Gravatar on November 25th, 2008 at 9:32 pm
  21. Thanks, ZiJa! My understanding is they are going to be sending us a lot of “swag” and gifts that we will be able to in turn give away to our crew members! If you are not a member of http://socialspark.com you should go join. I will let you know when you are able to join my crew group on that site probably in January!

    Posted by: LaurieNo Gravatar on November 25th, 2008 at 9:34 pm
  22. Thanks Paul! I think it is going to be a lot of fun. I hope that you will come and join my crew!

    Posted by: LaurieNo Gravatar on November 25th, 2008 at 9:35 pm
  23. Thanks Georgie! I hope that you will come back and join my crew and ask your readers to join too. It is going to be so much fun and I will get to give away a lot of cool stuff.

    I am so excited about the SSS. My gift is all packaged up and ready to mail. I can’t wait to see if my person likes it!
