BUT....
For this to be a success, there is one major component that ultimately, I cannot control. And that is you, my... ummm... Wit's Enders. Without any of you, all of this effort will be for naught. Now, that doesn't mean I can't TRY to control you! So, I am going to ask each of you for a favor. It's very simple. Together, perhaps we can all work to make this a huge success through a tiny, little selfless act. But first, a very short story...(you can skip to FAVOR below, if you must...)
As I remember, however, the essence is this. Each of those sleuthy dudes called 5 additional friends and asked them to either spread the word about something or be on the lookout for something. BUT, they also asked their friends - because they had influence (which I am certain you have) - to also call 5 more friends and relay the same message. And asked them to call 5 more... and you can see how this, plus a little 7th grade math, makes this the greatest ponzi scheme, errr, I mean communication scheme in the world.
FAVOR
I have started a kickstarter campaign. You can read about it through the link below, but if you are ever going to go to Wit's End, this will be worth it. Wit's End also has an Instagram, Twitter and Facebook account. I am asking for your support and for you to join the kickstarter campaign (again, will be worth your while) as well as like/follow these accounts. Here's the favor, can you do that PLUS, send an email or SHARE the kickstarter campaign with your network, but more specifically, ask them to do the same (between you and me, I think a personal email to 5 trusted friends might go just as far as a "Share," but ultimately, it's your call)?!
That's it. Please, do it now? I know you are super busy. But if you don't, you'll never come back to it, you know that. I'll owe you one. And, well, you'll know where I'll be for you to collect! Click below for each!

(and my new personal Facebook Profile)
In the end, this is all is being done to serve you, my current and future friends. So I thank you genuinely for helping me to make this venture a success!
Humbly,
Pete
Just came across this - very excited to hear about the new place in the neighborhood where I both live and work! I'll mention to my coworkers and friends, and I'm looking forward to checking it out once it's open!
ReplyDeleteOn the kickstarter, I understand encouraging people to donate in larger amounts, but would you consider a smaller reward? I would donate $20 for one drink, or $35 for two. (I also might donate some amount anyway - but don't let that sway your consideration!)
Elizabeth - Let me think about adding a "dinner for 1" award. I thnk that should cover your need! Thanks for the idea!
