NEW
DESIGN
We
have changed the design of our newsletter, making it
mostly text now for easier reading. We hope you like
the all text version.
INTRODUCING OUR NEWEST SITE:
We are
launching
www.eat-n-run.com
this week. Eat-n-run.com has been in the works for a
long time and our hope is that it will be more than
just a website. We hope it will be a community for
people like us, who enjoy good food and get to visit
all of the local restaurants.
Eat-n-run.com
has a message board where everyone can share their
secrets about the best food, best time to go to a
restaurant and anything else related to eating out.
We will need volunteers to moderate the boards,
mostly to get rid of SPAM, but also to make sure
unsubstantiated allegations against any of our local
eateries.
We
also added a BLOG and we hope some of more active
diners will want to write reviews and share their
experiences about local restaurants.
We
expect it to take a little time to build up traffic
and postings on the message boards and BLOGs but we
ask that you understand that is normal for any new
online communities and hope you will help us spread
the word about it and keep coming back to
participate so it can grow into something big.
Please
go to
www.eat-n-run.com
and register for the message boards and the BLOGS,
which is under "Reviews" and start sharing.
HOLIDAY DESIGNS
Some
of you may have noticed we have started changing the
website theme on holidays. The Veteran's Day theme
is currently on the site. We are looking for ideas
for the Thanksgiving them which will be up the
entire week of Thanksgiving.
COMMISSIONED SALES POSITIONS
We are
always looking for people to do sales part time. The
positions are commission only but they can be done
in your free time. The best way is to set up
appointments over the phone which saves you a lot of
time.
This
is a great way to earn extra money for Christmas
with a very flexible schedule that you set up
yourself. Go to the contact us page on
www.mainetakeout.com
to contact Chris for more information. |
SURVEY
We
thank everyone who has participated in our survey
already. We apologize for the delay in sending out
pens. Someone posted a link to the survey on a
freebie bulletin board and we had to literally sort
through hundreds, maybe even thousands of responses
from people all over the world.
We
invite anyone who hasn't answered the questions to
check it out and
help us improve our service. It is a fairly short
survey that should only take a few minutes and we
will even send you a free mainetakeout.com pen.
WIN
$25.00 GC TO VALLEY CHINESE CUISINE
You
love their food and so do we, and they are allowing
us to give away gift certificates in November and
December to anyone who enters to win on
www.mainetakeout.com
Don't forget to check out their menu and if you are
like me, that also means placing an order.
MAINESPORTSPAGES.COM
This
is another site we are launching this month. We will
be covering youth sports across the state from Pee
Wee to College, recognizing the hard work and
accomplishments. To get an idea of what the site
will be like check out
www.windhamsportspages.com,
and we are launching other community sports pages
across the state over the next few months. We will
also be launching
www.westbrooksportspages.com
in the next few weeks.
It is
not quite ready but I wanted to let everyone know
this month that we will be launching it with a
special contest. Visitors will be able to pick the
winners of the College Football Bowl Games and win
great prizes to local companies like Casa Novello in
Windham, Valley Chinese Cuisine in Portland, Eastern
Engraving and Awards ($100 Gift Certificate: They
have great sports items like photo sports balls),
Digital Video Magic (1 Hour photo session valued at
$250 and you will get all of the negatives to use
however you wish.) Best of all there is no cost to
enter. All we ask from you is you spread the word
about
www.mainesportspages.com
by telling your favorite sports fans about it. We
have a newsletter sign up form there and we will
send out our first newsletter when we announce the
start of the contest.
We
have other contests planned for all of our food and
sports sites so keep your eyes open and make sure
you visit them on a regular basis so you don't miss
out. |
