Facebook/social media experiment from my day job

**PearlieMae** · 05-09-2016, 10:08 AM

I'm not sure if this is appropriate for the network, so admins, take this down if it isn't, but the company I work for is running a $150 gift certificate giveaway and all you have to do is post a photo of a recent hobby/craft project of yours. I think we have some crafty mers around here, so why not?

We are also planning on bigger giveaways for sharing tutorials in the near future, and also contests that will involve voting...but this one is a random drawing sort of thing...and you can get some mermaid making materials if you win! Resins, clay, tools, mold making materials...

But I said I would put the call out to the mers, so share a photo here, under the image of the mad scientist dog! https://www.facebook.com/micromarktools/

(It would help if you like the page, too!)

Nice but it looks like its mainly for technological crafts like building stuff and making stuff go, not really the place I would go to show off my beading skills. Is it for international mers too or just ones in US/Canada?

Well, we are trying to break out of that very image after so many years of one guy in charge thinking he knew everything. He doesn't work here anymore.

It's international as far as I know, as it's an e-gift certificate.

It's where I get most of my mermaid tail making supplies (except for silicone, and I'm working on that!), and this is our first attempt at social media marketing, so yeah, you can post ANYTHING crafty you've made! EDIT: NOT A RANDOM DRAWING...You have to get 'likes' for votes... and they are giving it two weeks from today (May 9 to May 23, 2016).

Cool! Thanks for letting us know!

**Mermaid Jaffa** · 05-11-2016, 02:32 AM

Neat! Good luck to the mers that enter in the competition!

**PearlieMae** · 05-11-2016, 08:59 AM

Enter anything you've made! Post a picture then get your friends to Like it...each Like is a vote!

This is cool.....I think I will submit something! I just finished a couple baby dragon sculptures, I'll post those! I kind of want EVERYTHING under the "organizer" section!!!

Great! This company is (sorry guys, but it's true) too 'man hobby' centric (the former boss was OBSESSED with model trains, and that's the only market we catered to!), and I am trying to get a wider variety of things posted in order to get some really cool things into inventory that creative folks like us can use!
