Partner Program Success!

I'm happy to report that I hit my goal of 10 new Pixel Lava Partner Program sign ups by May 31st and actually sent out 12! For a brand new program, I'm really happy with the results and I've already helped one new client (and sent out an $80 commission check). Win-win! I'm going to keep the magic going with a new Partner Program promo for June - a raffle prize and new business-building resources in my Partner Portal so stay tuned! Joining the program is totally free, all you have to do is sign up and you'll get an artsy, hand-made card holder with custom cards AND a cool sticker. Why not sign up now, it's justa few clicks!.

15 social media ideas
Content marketing is a fancy term for promoting yourself online by offering useful material. It's successful because it works on the power of attraction instead of distraction. In the same way we skip commercials, it's easy to tune out cheesy stuff online. Instead, we want to put out appealing, relevant content. Simple! Or is it? Do you have a hard time seeing your business through the eyes of an outsider? What may be an everyday, mundane thing to you (ho hum, here I am meeting with the wine rep again) might be wonderfully exotic to a new client (the handsome Italian wine rep - are you kidding me?!). With the goal of harvesting cool content for your social media marketing, here are 15 social media ideas that come out of the everyday things you probably already do.

May brings two fun social media promo opportunities- Mother's Day and May the 4th, aka Star Wars Day. Most of you can undoubtedly come up with a creative promo for the ubiquitous Mother's Day whether it's a free dessert for bringing in Mom this month or a moms-only discount coupon. But if you're looking for something more unique and geeky, go for a May the 4th promo. May the 4th is a lispy reference to the Star Wars "May the Force be with you" - a way of saying goodbye and good luck. It's a great way to tap into Star Wars mania and connect emotionally with your audience. Here are 10 great short videos to bring your May 4th social media alive. Don't forget to add the #MayTheFourth hashtag to get your posts seen by as many people as possible!
