ToolBarn - Free Shirt Friday

By Jeremy Schoemaker 34 comments

Yesterday I got a package from toolbarn.com that contained this wicked cool shirt and also a gray t-shirt.

Toolbarn

Toolbarn frickin rocks. If you dont know about toolbarn they are one of the largest online retailers on the net for industrial tools. Brian Mark, the companies CTO, is a regular at pretty much all major SES events. Thanks for the free shirts Toolbarn!

Also Brian has a great podcast about optimizing for Google OneBox. It is a must listen to for anyone doing online commerce.

Excellent! You’re “perverse”. Well, apparently your contest is. I don’t understand the uproar. Sports Illustrated’s biggest issue every year is the swimsuit edition. If something works and its not hurting anyone, why not use it?

I don’t know why I felt like typing in hillbilly voice. Talked to my family in Kentucky today; might be it.

Anyway, do they have an affiliate program?

The polo looks good on you (i’m not bicurious). They’re more expensive but they give the company that distributes them a more professional look. Also, thanks for photoshopping my url out of the background. I was wondering why my traffic was down 80%.

We don’t currently have an active affilite program. That should be rolled out in 2 - 3 months tops. And yes… it’s sort of a coincidence. We didn’t actually meet until SES San Jose last year.

Brian Mark said on May 12th, 2007 at 7:20 pm

100k? You mean per month… because it was over $1M last year. That’s a slightly different number.

What’s funny is everyone says “must send shoe free shirts” but so few people actually do.

I received a coupon for a free shirt form a company called teno, and they claim to “dress bloggers” (seems to be a german company). Let’s see if a cool t-shirt’s gonna be the outcome.
