BarterZone of New Zealand recently initiated an aggressive online new member campaign riding atop a free membership and a $100,000 BarterZone Trade Dollar Giveaway.
Patrick Howard (CEO BarterZone) said “The first day we had attracted over 25 new members, the next day saw similar numbers joining, and over the course of the launch more than 180 people had joined. We had no preconceived ideas as to the impact Twitter would have on enquiries or the number of people joining; we went into this knowing that it was pretty much an uncharted territory for such a launch, but with the wide range of people using social media sites like Twitter we thought it was a gamble worth taking.”
BarterZone is a traditional barter exchange located in Auckland, New Zealand. For more information on their giveaway see http://barterzone.co.nz/promo
