This is the part of our job that we're addicted to: promoting our members. Members of Tin Shingle get to list their content on this website, in several designated sections: The Marketplace, Jobs, Events, and Link Love.
We hand-craft social updates for our Twitter and Facebook profiles to promote members when they add a promotional listing to their profile, which is then automatically featured on the home page and side columns of this website. And then, we see it with our own eyes, and write at least one tweet about it (for more details about this benefit, click here).
Most recently, we tweeted about the amazing waterproof car seat cover from Nomie Baby. A person in Twitter saw it, and responded. Nomie Baby tweeted back with a coupon code. We saw that tweet, and gave it an extra push with our tweet that gave a personal recommendation based on my own use of the car seat cover, and bam, a sale happened!
Here's a picture of how the conversation went down, ending with the final tweet of excitement, that Nomie Baby helped this mother, DWwithChildren, solve a problem (to protect her car seat).
We can't guarantee this would happen every time, and the reason we saw these tweets is because we were included on each one, but we were happy to help, and ecstatic to see results. :)
