App Ad Opportunity.

Baby Countdown app

 

 

On Thursday May 9th just before Mother's Day we will launch our new facebook integrated Baby Countdown app.  The app is available for both iphone & android.  The app lets customers enter name & due date, change background or upload a photo & is shareable on Facebook.  Great for baby showers or baby birth announcements.

There is an opportunity for sponsorship advertising in this app.  There are 4 spots 300x250 square; for this 6 week opportunity; the cost $250.  See photo below, where sponsorship ads will be.  This is a paid app, so users will not be forced to view the option.

 

 

Additionally we are:

  • Sending a press release to over 800 journalists & 20,000 moms - about 7,000 of those are mompreneurs.
  • Distributing 4,000 post cards to 50 obgyn physicians in DFW and 3 Babies r us locations.

Ever wonder who your favorite entrepreneurs & celebrities follow?

A powerful twitter tool, with a silly name can tell you.

QUEENS OF SHARKS - Shark Tank that is...
Using Who Twarted, I learned that Barbara Corcoran & Lori Greiner, two women entrepreneurs from ABC's "Shark Tank" both follow, the following 20 people. In other words, they have 20 people whom they follow in common. i.e., they're both interested in the 20 people/twitter accounts on this list.

Barbara Corcoran & Lori Greiner

Click link to view and/or sort 20 People Followed by both Barbara Corcoran and Lori Greiner.  Users can be sorted by name, location or follower count.  If interested, I could save these results in a list, or I could sort the list by location and save only the users in a certain location to my list.  The image below shows users followed by the two Shark Tank queens, sorted in descending order by number of followers.  Jimmy Fallon, and his 8 million plus fans is the largest twitter account followed by both Ms. Corcoran & Ms. Greiner.

GLASS TWEILING
Interesting to me, there is only 3 women on this list.  Between Lori & Barbara; they are collectively only interested in 3 women (and all 3 are celebrities).  Is there a Glass Tweiling?  Does one have to have balls or be on tv to be of interest to top women entrepreneurs?   It's kind of funny, I tweally mean it!  A social glass tweiling?  I'm not throwing stones ladies, I'm a huge fan.  It's only an observation.  Look at the 26 people that both Mark Cuban & Daymond John follow in common.  There's 3 women on that list, 2 of which are Lori & Barbara, and a 3rd named Litter SF.  Click here to view the list of accounts both Mark and Daymond follow.

For the sake of rounding out the Shark Board, I've linked here a list of the 13 followed by both sexy Robert Herjavec & Kevin OLeary. These two don't follow many women either, but check back next week and see my upcoming post titled, "100 women entrepreneurs you must follow on twitter."

NO SHAME

This post is a shameless attempt to get attention of potential investors for my products; which I've listed below.

http://www.WhoTwarted.com - sorts any users followers & builds lists.  I find this very helpful for editing my app NFL Player Tweets, when players leave or move from team to team.  This is an easy method to updating my lists.

http://www.SendMoola.com - mobile payment system that's "easier than Dorsey's" - a quote from entrepreneur Michael Sherrod.  The site also performs fundraising and sends e-greeting cards with cash to paypal. It's like "KickStarter" with a twist.

http://www.AzulSocial.com - social media management dashboard that bulk schedules to both Facebook & Twitter, YES IT DOES.

http://www.FormsEmail.com - a wicked cool site for non-programmers to create forms, and email forms, all kinds of forms.  Even paypal integrated forms.  Think "contact" forms, sign up forms, etc etc....

http://www.WeatherMom.net - weather alert system built using technology from the National Weather Service.

Plus a handful of android apps in Google Play

Strange time of year for Zuma the dog

by Samantha Morgan

User is currently offline
Friday, 08 March 2013 Category Home

The season of change and love is upon us, while we look towards the spring, we reflect upon the birth of new life, new growth and a new wardrobe of clothes. It’s a strange time of year really, for many of us the sun is shining brightly and we can feel the summer is just around the corner. We want to get out those t-shirts and shorts and hang out at the beach. Come out of our winter hibernation, but it’s still not quite warm enough. I see Mummy getting ready in the morning pausing at her summer dresses and trying on her t-shirts only to opt for the warmer style of long sleeve tops layered with a sweater or cardigan and wishing for the cool wind to give way to the hot summer sun.
The stores are now moving into their spring ranges and in just a few weeks the summer ranges will be available to buy. For many the weather is still cold and although you want to bring some colour and sunshine into your wardrobe it seems just a little too early. While we are working on new products all the time at Zuma the Dog HQ and our summer styles have been ready for many months, some of our classic styles are still great for this time of year. Your little ones can still be warm yet still have a summer look about them and still stand out in a crowd.
We are pleased to announce that our classic range is still going strong and with its launch in stores across Lisbon, Portugal we know our bright yellow and orange hoodies and tops have got a lot of mileage yet. Torino, moda infantile e juvenile on Avendida da Igreja in Lisbon were the first to acknowledge the bold style of our brand and saw the value in our bright colours for all year round. With more following suit, soon children all over Portugal will be glowing in the excitement that wearing Zuma the Dog styles brings.
Of course we sell our brand worldwide and also via our website www.zumathedog.com. Visit us on Facebook and even Tweet us we love to hear from you.
Much Love
Zuma XX

FIND CUSTOMERS

To find customers, you must know where to look.

Use these tools:

The tools are http://www.WhoTwarted.com http://www.Tweeplesorter.com &http://www.AzulSocial.com

This first screen shot (image 1) is from http://www.TweepleSorter.com . It shows the number of common followers of two twitter users:  Kathy Meyer, iphone app developer @2cre8 and Kim Lavine best selling author @mommymillionair

Results are displayed sorted by number of friends aka # of twitter accounts they follow.  At the top of the sort is HootSuite .  Out of the 331 people following both Kathy Meyer and Kim Lavine, Hootsuite is following the most people.

Click to view (image 1)

 

The second screen shot (image 2)  is from http://www.AzulSocial.com (an alternative to Hootsuite) and it also shows that 331 people follow both Kathy Meyer & Kim Lavine.  This list is sorted by the number of followers.  What does that mean?  That means, this screen shot depicts the most influential follower of both Kathy & Kim.  Turns out it's the President of the United State Barack Obama with his 2770668 followers!  Needless to say, many people follow Barack Obama on Twitter!

Click to view (image 2)

Who are your most influential followers?

The 3rd item (image 3) below shows a complete list of the 331 people following both Kathy & Kim, sorted by location.

HERE ARE THE CUSTOMERS

These are people interested in both women (brands)

Extremely Valuable Tool

The real value lies with http://www.WhoTwarted.com 's ability to display users, then sort them by location and even store query results as a list.

When visiting http://www.WhoTwarted.com and http://www.Tweeplesorter.com if you don't get desired results, that means the api limit has been temporarily exceeded, so wait a few minutes and then try again.

The tools do more than I've explained in this post.  They show you who follows you that you don't follow back and even more.  Please feel free to visit and check out what you can learn.  Come back here and let me know what you found.

Click to view (image 3)

Find Customers

HILARIOUS FOOTNOTE:

I'm a real fan of Kim Lavine's which is why I used her as an example in the post.

The final screen shot (image 4) Use the twitter tools, to see if one persons follows another.  I entered @mommymillionair and myself @tammywjones and noticed, she doesn't follow me!  LOL  So with the tool's feature of (see those you follow who don't follow back) , it was easy to unfollow her!

Yesterday, I placed by voice controlled game in Google's android market.

It's not the first voice controlled android game, but it is ONE of the first!  Looking through thousands of apps, I saw only 3 others.

The game, titled "Don't Pop it" features a bright red balloon, controlled by the players voice.

On Google Play, click here.

Players must avoid the flying thumb tacks to get points.  Pass more tacks, get more points. Thumb tacks fly faster the more you pass.

This simple game is really fun and it's available NOW in Google Play. I hope you'll help me spread the word.

Tribute to Chris Kyle

Chris Kyle tribute android game

Scan code with android device to download the game, American Sniper.

My husband, retired police officer (tac team sniper) is a huge Chris Kyle fan.  We had the opportunity to lay eyes on him at a local Constable's event a couple years ago.  My husbands not a talkative guy, so simply seeing Mr. Kyle with his own eyeballs made him very happy.

As a tribute to Chris Kyle, I created this game.  If Mr. Kyle's family agrees, I'd like to sell it in the android & iphone markets & give a portion of each sale to the estate.

Chris Kyle American Sniper Game

http://gamegalz.com/index.php/gamez/5-americansniper

Chris KyleFrom the Craft International site

Chief Chris Kyle (USN, honorably discharged in 2009) is one of the top snipers in the history of the American armed forces. From 1999 to 2009, he recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. Iraqi insurgents feared Chief Kyle so much they named him al-Shaitan ("the devil") and placed a bounty on his head. His extensive combat experience includes sniping, close-quarters battle, reconnaissance, long-range desert patrols, personal security and the training for foreign allies. In addition to working and training with the elite Navy SEALs, Chief Kyle has also served with units from the Army, Marine Corps and other government agencies.

SEAL Team 3 Chief Chris Kyle served four combat tours in Operation Iraqi Freedom and elsewhere. For his bravery in battle, he was awarded two Silver Stars, five Bronze Stars with Valor, two Navy and Marine Corp Achievement Medals, and one Navy and Marine Corps commendation. Additionally, he received the Grateful Nation Award, given by the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs. Following his combat deployments, he became chief instructor for training Naval Special Warfare Sniper and Counter-Sniper teams, and he authored the Naval Special Warfare Sniper Doctrine, the first Navy SEAL sniper manual.

Chief Kyle is author of The New York Times number one bestselling book "American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History."

Chris Kyle had the dream of forming Craft upon completion of his last enlistment so that he could continue to serve this great nation by helping those headed into harm's way. When he founded Craft, he pulled together a remarkable team who share in his vision to provide the best training to those who need it the most.

Chris Kyle was murdered Feb 2, 2013.

Hey Mom! You too can create an online store

by Tammy
Tammy

Wednesday, 20 February 2013 Category Business

Open an online store - it's so easy!

You too can create an online store

I had to check it out & see if I could do it myself, after I purchased Payload Games, an auto updating video game site.

Yesterday I built 2.

The first is Stacy Bakes Cakes.  An online shop that sells bakeware., cake pans, cupcake pans, decorating tools, etc.


Stacy Bakes Cakes - Bakeware and Accessories



 

 

The second is Kennedale Racing (a old domain I'd once used to compliment a printed publication that still gets alot of traffic).  It's a now a car parts store!  It features Performance parts and accessories; stuff like air filters, spark plugs, engine parts...

Set it up

Amazon makes it easy.  To get started, login to your Amazon affiliate account.  Click on "astore," then "add a new store."


Then follow the instructions for selecting the products or categories you wish to sell.  For my sites, I choose amazon categories.  You'll be presented with pick and choose options for colors and layout.  That's it!  Your store is built.  Now all you've got to do is drive traffic and customers to your store.

To get started share the link of your store, or embed the link provided by amazon in your site/page.

My links are:

Share the news

This is the hardest part but here's a few suggestions:

  1. Get on social media.  Create social media sites for the store and invite your friends and colleagues
  2. Advertise online.  I've got a suite of about 12 sites and I run reciprocal banners on all of them.  If you'd like to run your banner on my site of sites, a 468x60 pixel banner is required along with $25 per month.
  3. Advertise in print.  Currently I'm running a classfied ad in a local college newspaper, not sure how effective it is just yet.
  4. Direct mail marketing.  Create postcards & mail them to your customers.  You can also use the artwork in email marketing.
  5. Email marketing - ask a friend to swap email ads with you.  Speaking of that - Interested in swapping ads with me?  Or I can send an email for you.

Who'd ever thought I'd be selling cake pans, video games & car parts?  LOL!

Good luck and let me know how it goes!

Facebook charge $1 for message

I must have missed this a few months ago, but apparently if you'd like to send a message to someone whom you are not connected too on Facebook, you can do so by paying $1 for the message to be delivered.  Else, your message will find its way to the "filtered" message folder.

SERIOUS TOOL - STUPID NAME

 

http://www.WhoTwarted.com may look silly but underneath the goofy exterior it's a very userful tool.

Just yesterday, I sorted the 16 million plus followers of @theEllenShow, in paginated results of 5,000 each.  It takes a while on larger accounts but works like a champ.

 

Whotwarted.com will perform the following functions

When Not Logged in:

Display & sort followers or followings of any twitter user

Display & sort common followers & followings of any two twitter users.

Example use: You want to see followers of two users @DrPepper and @WinstarCasino. Enter two twitter usernames in the "Common" box and select followers/following; then click the search button.

The result is a list of twitter users who like both, Winstar Casino AND Dr. Pepper. Now you have a list of people who visit Winstar Casino and also drink Dr. Pepper. The list can then be sorted by location & saved in your twitter account - courtesy of whotwarted.com!

When Logged in:

In addition to functions mentioned earlier, WhoTwarted.com users can also do the following:

View followers that you are not following AND ALSO those who you follow that don't follow you back.

Sort users that follow/don't follow

Choose users to follow/unfollow

Add any of those users to a list OR create or edit a list.

I do hope you'll share this information.  The website is http://www.WhoTwarted.com  Follow Who Twarted on Twitter http://www.Twitter.com/TweepleSorter

Mom Entrepreneur deep in app development world

by Tammy
Tammy

User is currently offline
Monday, 28 January 2013 Category Technology

That's what the December 2012 headline of the Fort Worth StarTelegram said....

Kennedale mom is deep in the app development world

Photo by Terry Evans/Star Telegram
The story was written by journalist Patrick Walker, a very nice guy. Our first meeting he was checking out the story possibility with a reporters slanted eye, (and I'm paraphrasing here) "These products are yours? YOU developed these? Are there any other owners? These are YOUR products?  No one else has right to these, right?"

My husband and I laugh when we think about it.  It seems most publications (we've been trying hard about a year to get some media recognition) don't get it; that one, extremely, motivated person with a little skill, a little 401K plus a lot of tensity surely can build digital products.  But it ain't easy!

So, yes I do have rocking, working, selling products & I'll list some of them at the end of this blog post.

Razzle Dazzle Jewels by TWJ on CNET

Patrick Walker's article was nice AND I'm very appreciative of it.  (to date the Star Telegram is the only media outlet to respond)

The article bills our products as unique, inexpensive Christmas gifts... hey I'll take any slant I can get.

It skims the nitty gritty life as a boot strapping entrepreneur devoted to developing digital products without the help of a rich uncle or venture capital.

The story mentions some lessons I've learned along the way about running a server, and mentions dealing with free lance coders in other countries.  One thing not mentioned is the practice of "Couch Surfing."  I learned all about couch surfing from a guy named Aditya.  Aditya is a young developer in India whom I paid $500 in advance for some development work.  I didn't mind paying him in advance because I had worked with him for about 8 months prior. Couch surfing is a practice where people travel around from place to place, meeting, greeting and partying with strangers then crashing on their couch!  I know this because I followed him on twitter, watching as he spent my $500!

Read the Star Telegram article, here.

I'll  put all that junk in an e-book someday.
In the mean time - here's two of our products.
