Stephanie, Fawn, Beth and myself are all pretty fond on Arkansas Women Bloggers and we think you are too! Well it turns out that we have another fan, a pretty famous fan! Ree Drummond (yes, the Pioneer Woman) thinks what we are doing is pretty cool and has offered two autographed copies of her books to two lucky members of Arkansas Women Bloggers! Pretty cool, huh? We think so!
We will be giving the autographed copy of Ree’s cookbook, The Pioneer Women Cooks, to the member of Arkansas Women Bloggers who refers the most new members between 7am TODAY through 7pm on Sunday, December 4th.
We will be giving the autographed copy of Ree’s love story, Black Heels to Tractor Wheels, to the member of Arkansas Women Bloggers who refers the most new members between 7am Monday, December 5th through 7pm on Wednesday, December 7th.
It’s that simple! We have added a ‘Referred By’ field to the registration form to make it easy for us to keep track. All you have to do is ask your local women blogger friends to list your first and last name or the name of your blog in the ‘Referred By’ field!
Here are four suggestions to help you drum up some referrals:
1. Tell Your Friends
