13 March 2008 Welcome, Thank you very much for your interest in helping to support the video. And special thanks to those who supported our on-line fund-raiser on February 24th. It will likely be over a month from now before we have sales figures from iTunes, but we'll announce them and the donation amount as soon as possible. This page is designed to give anyone who wants to support the video loads of ideas on how to do so. Anything you can do is of tremendous help and is sincerely appreciated. Please note: all text that looks like this is a link to the website being described. Enclosed are various ideas and suggestions, all of which make a big difference. INTERNET ITUNES BUY THE VIDEO ON ITUNES 100% of the proceeds from the video are donated to NICIE - that's $1.39 of the $1.99 price here at the US iTunes store And £1.32 of the £1.89 price at the UK iTunes shop RATE THIS IMIX Please click the link below and give this iMix a 5 star rating (doing so is free). This link will open up your iTunes program. Click here to rate! This is an iMix that includes the Irish language version of "Get Up". An iMix is a group of songs with a theme that iTunes' users submit for publication. As people will be looking for Irish music at this time of the year, my distributor said that making an iMix would be a good way to increase record sales and that iMixes with strong ratings get higher placement. So, please just click and rate! Thank so much for your help!!! I really appreciate it!! Distribute the Video Online -- Here is a list of all of the websites hosting the video and how each one works and the options you have to promote the video on them. Also please consider making one of these sites your web browser’s home page for a week or so. That means each time that you open your browser, another view is counted. YouTube YouTube includes both the link to the video and the code for the video. You can send the link to others via email asking them to check it out, and with the code, you can post the video on your website, webpage or blog. Also, please give it 5 stars while you’re there. Those ratings really help. And if you like, leave a comment there. Myspace If you’re on Myspace you can email, bulletin, blog and add the video to your profile. You can also use the code to place it on separate websites, webpages and blogs. Please also rate it a bouyah - positive! One thing that is unfortunate about the Myspace code is that it is inconsistent when trying to place the video in the comments sections of your friends pages. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. So I recommend simply posting the link to the video in comments on Myspace. Bebo For all of you there in Ireland and the UK - Bebo allows you to add the video to your profile as well as gives you the code to add it to your website, webpages and blogs. I just put this page up - so please also make friends with me there. Yahoo Video Like the others, you can rate it and their site gives you code to place the video on your website, webpages and blogs. They also count the views, so sending this link helps as well. And unlike the others, you can post your review of the video at Yahoo. Make Friends with Awakening Queen Maebh if you're a member of these sites. Bebo Myspace NEWS COVERAGE Read the press stories that have run. It demonstrates to editors that this story is important and that the public supports a message of peace, and some good news in the paper! And if you’re really motivated, please write a letter to the editor expressing your appreciation. Here is some of what has posted and run. The Irish Herald - March, 2008 Newtonards Chronicle - 17 January 2008 BBC Radio Ulster - 02 January 2008 - the story is about 52 minutes into the broadcast and the site will likely only have it posted until the next day's news replaces it. If I can get permission to rebroadcast an audio copy, I'll post it here. NICIE's website - December 2007 - there will also be a story in the next edition of their newsletter. MusicDish - December 2007- and all of their sister sites. The Spectator - December 2007 - but they do not have an online edition. RADIO Request the Song and Thank Radio for Playing It -- So far we’re on Raidió Fáilte in Belfast. They are of course an Irish language radio station, but you don’t have to speak Irish to thank them and request the song. If you’re not in Belfast, you can listen online and thank them via the contact button there. And shortly I'll announce details on an American NPR affiliate who are doing a story which will include the music. THE MUSIC You can buy the “Get Up” single and music video at iTunes, and the single tracks here at the Snocap store. At iTunes, the single tracks and music video are under the artist Awakening Queen Maebh. The first single, “Hey Dublin,” is available on Amazon 10% of all sales is donated to NICIE. YOUR FEEDBACK Share your thoughts and suggestions. If you know of another outlet for the video or way to promote it, please feel free to click here to email me. Thank you again for your consideration and support. It’s making a very positive difference. Happy Holidays! Cheers, Elizabeth
