Welcome to my online journal and diary where I track my life and keep you up-to-date about my latest doings, pictures, music, poetry and more.


Austin Celtic Music
I was doing some brainstorming this morning after I got some Austin Celtic Association emails as to how to build the membership. And I've been going through a lot of different promotional ideas.

I've always been a big fan of email newsletters like my Celtic Music MP3s Magazine that I publish every week. It's doing quite well. And the link I published above links to an archived copy of the newsletter. For some reason, I couldn't seem to publish on the Celtic MP3s website.

Any case, I was thinking benefits. What are the benefits of joining the ACA?

Well here's what I know about:
  1. Latest Austin Celtic email news
  2. Membership card (coming soon)
  3. ACA Newsletter (when we can afford to send it), and
  4. discounts to Celtic music performances at the Cactus Cafe.
What else would make it valuable to fork over $20 for an annual membership?

Some thoughts I had to inspire memberships were:
  1. Have Things Celtic sell memberships for us and take a $5 profit.
  2. Make it easier to sign up online through our website. CDstreet would handle the transaction and take their 20%
  3. More benefits like maybe a sticker and more personalized contact between board members and new subscribers
That's all that comes to mind off hand. Talk to me if you have any ideas.

Andrew also threw out the idea of selling Elven jewelry online. We were hoping to talk to some faire vendors, but not enough time this weekend to do it. And it slipped our minds. So I briefly talked to The Lady in Green about since she is also a jeweller. We'll see if we can get it rolling.
