Give Me Some MacBooks!

Shoemoney is giving away not one but TWO Apple Macbooks. A brand new latest gen MacBook (the one with the gimped glossy screen) from Market Leverage and a MacBook Air from Neil Patel. To win, you have to subscribe to Shoe’s newsletter. The winners will be posted in Shoe’s November newsletter. That’s less than three days away so you better enter now.

I think Market Leverage and Neil should each give me a MacBook to give away as well. Comment if you agree!

Great tips on Twitter, did not know you can get banned for spamming though.
Sally Got the Moves!

10 killer bloggers? I wonder if they are being hunted by now.

I love the plugging for the Shoemoney new Macbook contest, when you ripped on them in a blog just last week. You're sending us mixed signals John, haha.

wow, i want to win those 2 notebooks...
why you should get ? :D

Love the video of Sally dancing. She's got moves.

Nice reasons for twitter :) I got 400 followers in just 3 days to start with :)

I say...instead of giving away a macbook, how about you give away a follow on twitter? so we have a better shot of making it into your misc ramblings? ;) lol

yupee....for MR Posts!!!!! Dude, i followed some time ago

I like the idea of giving away free macbooks. I just wish I could offer something like this as a prize.

More contests! I just spoke about contests being a good promotional tool to a business group today. All that taken from online contests like shoemoney and John Chow, plus the tip to partner for the prizes.

John, I wrote you about the potentially fradulant advertising service Inforum Advertising. You'v failed to respond or take down the post, and since I found about the service through your site, I thought I could at least warn some people that take the time to read these comments. I paid for the service but never received anything in return. The owner stopped responded to emails months ago. Because you pay through PayPal there is no recourse. Suck it up as a loss. That's fine and all, I've wasted more money than that, but it is irresponsible to keep up a post that is probably still sending him customers. I hate do this, but after he suddenly stopped responding to emails and failed to deliver any service, I'm trying to stop others from wasting money as well. I've tried to work it out with him, but with no communication it is hard. Feel free to remove this comment, but also remove the post, please.

dude, where is your gravatar? also i couldn't find it? you should start a blog about it. In fact it could be fraudulentadvertising.com

your daughter is adorable!

and of COURSE you should be given more macbooks to give away. goes without saying.

;-)

I'll throw in a vote for you, John! Market Leverage and Neil (or anyone else please!) should definitely give you macbooks to give away on your blog. The more chances to win a Macbook, the better!

Nice man. I would like a look at that ebook.

Here's an item you left out:

$500 turned into $1,300 for the Omaha Children's Hospital... hopefully it gets donated with a few clicks of ShoeMoney's mouse:

Hey John,

Thanks for the link to the interview ebook. :)

And yes, a Macbook or two would be very nice.

Jamie

Yes i agree you should get macbooks, so i can win one ;)

Sally's got her dance moves on. She looks sleepy also, LOL!

I entered Shoe's contest, and I'm going to win it. HA!

I should have tweeted you a message about my Ultimate Fry Sauce Recipe Contest. Oh well, too late. I think I will check out the problogger 9 steps to a successful newsletter. I need to start one.

Well im not a macbook fanboy - esp with the whole glossy screen thing.. but you throw something at me for free i wont turn it down :D

Thanks John for the link, thats was amazingly quick ..thanks to Twitter :)

The Seventh Reason to join Twitter - Follow John and end up on his Miscellanous rambling posts like I did :)

I ll keep following John on Twitter :)

I agree that you should get some macbooks to give away. Hell, we all should get free macbooks to give away.

The blogosphere would be a much better place with macbooks running around rampant.

Yes, the blogosphere would be much better if we all had macs.

P.S. How cute! Tell Sally she is a great dancer. Who knows, maybe she'll end up on "So you think you can dance?" some day.
