We've had many requrests to get an update on the business, and I'm happy to oblige! Today is our two month anniversary, and we're happy with how things are going so far. We've exceeded the 50 customer threshold, which isn't bad considering we haven't done much marketing to speak of. We owe a lot of that to PGLers and referrals; thanks to everyone for helping our business grow!
A couple of exciting things on the horizon:
- Wii contest winner to be announced in mid-August, after two week trial periods expire
- Local radio station promotion
- Maxim satellite radio promotion
- Search Engine Optimization project being launched
We've just begun looking at SEO options; if anyone has knowledge on this subject, I'd love to talk to you!
We've got a cool promotion going with a local alternative rock station. We'll be travelling with them daily for about two weeks doing a "games on the street" promotion, showing off the new games and promoting the site. We'll also have a showcase booth at their huge annual concert on 9/29. We'll have some TVs with Wiis, a little Guitar Hero action, and be doing a promotion to sign their listeners up that day. They are expecting 20,000 people!
Lastly, if any of you listen to the Maxim Radio channel on Sirius, they have a show on their devoted to video games called "Level Up." We will be doing weekly spots for them detailing the top new releases of the week. We've very excited for this opportunity because it will help us reach a nationwide audience.
So, that's a little glimpse inside of the GYG world. Thanks to everyone for continuing to support us!
