Cross Promotion Giveaway Madness

The Center for REALTOR Technology (CRT for short) has announced a contest that will help all of us increase readership of our blogs…

“How's that?"

This goes along the "show me yours and I'll show you mine" approach to managing social media sites.

I was talking to Heather Harrington about it over lunch a couple weeks back. We all have good content blogs, but not much "echo" effect. The key to increasing readership and site relevance is to comment on one another's posts and create community dialogue. Trouble is, its hard to discipline ourselves to do it.

Now comes CRT with a great incentive. They are offering a free NAR Convention registration worth hundreds of $$$. All you have to do is help with some blog promotion:

1. Make a blog post about the cross-promotion-giveaway-madness-challenge and include the Expo widget OR

2. Tweet about this blog post and the CRT session agenda at least 5 days apart.

3. Then Join the CRT Facebook Page

4. Post links to the blog(s) and/or tweets in the cross-promotion-giveaway-madness-challenge Blog comments here or in the Facebook note

5. Sit back and wait to see if you win the challenge.

One (maybe two) lucky people that complete those steps and are a CRT Facebook Page fan by the end of September will win the Full Conference Pass courtesy of NAR.

If this spreads enough, maybe there will be some other goodies thrown in the mix as well. So what do you think? Want to get in on the Super CRT Cross Promotion Giveaway Madness Challenge? Two tweets or a blog post — how simple can it be?
