Affiliate Summit West 2011 T-Shirt Auction For Charity

by Jeremy Schoemaker on December 10, 2010 · 22 comments

I am auctioning myself to wear your company’s shirt for 3 days during the Affiliate Summit West Event January 2011 in Las Vegas.

I have done this 3 times before and the auction has never gone less than $10,000 as you can see below from previous winners.  But there is always a chance you could scoop up this great bargain for less!

All of the winning bidders money (not just the proceeds) goes to the Affiliate Marketers Give Back foundation which is a non profit group lead by Missy Ward (Affiliate Summit Co-Founder).

The winning bidder can pay us by Credit Card,  Check,  or Wire Transfer.

Go here to see the auction now

Here is the history of my T-Shirt Auction for Charity and details:

At Affiliate Summit West 2009 I agreed to wear your companies logo EXCLUSIVELY at Affiliate Summit west and the auction ended up going for $10,000 !!!!.

The winning bidders Trainsignal, makers of computer training software, were in attendance. We gave the money on behalf of the Affiliate Marketers Give Back foundation to the National Breast cancer society.

Then at Affiliate Summit East 2009 I did the same auction again for the Lincoln City People’s Mission Homeless Shelter and it ended at $11,000.00. The winning bidder was the giant coupon site retailmenot.com

Once more a year ago at Affiliate Summit West 2010 I held an auction that raised $10,100 for the People’s City Mission again, the high bid coming from ClickBooth.

Its really been awesome raising over $30,000 at Affiliate Summit events by wearing a companies t-shirt.

But now its 2011 and we are ready to do it again!

This is a great chance to get your brand out there and also support a GREAT CAUSE!

All of the winning bidders money (not just the proceeds) goes to the Affiliate Marketers Give Back foundation which is a non profit group lead by Missy Ward (Affiliate Summit Co-Founder).

The short version is this:

There is an auction on here for me to wear your companys logo during Affiliate Summit.

The winner will send me 3 shirts to wear at Affiliate Summit West Jan 9-11th 2011 in Las Vegas . I will wear no other shirt than your shirt during the conference and parties.

You will receive a TON of exposure. And A LOT MORE than just a handsome model wearing your logo!

Video Exposure:

  • At Affiliate Summit this year we have gone through all the background checks, union agreements, and other hoops to be one of very few people allowed to take video inside of Affiliate Summit West. I already have about 15 companies booked to interview them about their services and also will be doing some general video.
  • I also am asked about 10-20 times to be video interviewed (nobody is supposed to shoot video without authorization people will do it outside of conference areas) and your shirt will be shown.
  • I have over 10,000 YouTube subscribers and am by far the most subscribed to person in this niche. All of the subscribers get alerted each time I upload a video. Each of my videos also has a chance of being syndicated by techcrunch/mashable or another large HUGE website and giving your company more exposure.
  • I will also put the video on our CDN which will be ShoeMoney branded and get more exposure on the blog here.

Photo Exposure:

My photo gallery is the most visited section of ShoeMoney.com other than the root domain. Check these stats out from the last year:

(Click to enlarge)

You are not reading that wrong… over 2 million page views and almost 1.7 MILLION UNIQUE page views. That’s quite an amazing reach!

But besides the TONS of photos I will have in my own gallery, there will be loads of them on flickr and Facebook that people will tag and they’ll be seen by many.

So put your logo in front of TONS of people NOW!

Click here to bid!

Glad to see this is back again. It’s not only a great deal for advertising, SEO, and branding but also giving to a great cause. Hopefully this year can beat the previous records.

and in the photo you are wearing your own tee-shirt instead of retailmenot’s, how illogical. :-)

Jeremy you are certainly a great icon.

You are not only showing how to make money but also how to utilize money in right way.

Thumbs up to you.

Would love to see who is going to win.

Thumbs should go to both of you. Person who purchase it (though they will gain profit and marketing from it, but however) and specially to you.
