Pass It On

Posted on October 6, 2008

We are big believers in “movement making”…and how, one, beautifully simple idea can ignite the masses.

Our most recent find is Obama Baton.  This idea is a nice one.  Leverage the kinship that marathoners feel to spread the Obama-virus in a visually stirring, emotionally poignant and creative way.

What is even more impressive is the timeline for this project…from concept to community…in about ten days.  It is amazing what a shared passion and the courage to “just jump” can enable one to achieve.

 

 

Nice job El GaffneyClay Parker Jones, Kevin Panke & Hustlewood.

    Hey, thanks for the link!

    Care if we list your blog among the supporters? Also, make sure you list Seth Gaffney (elgaffney.com) as one of the creators of the idea.

    Making the leap is the first step. In today’s world, I always say, “Fail fast, fail cheap.”

    Thanks for the props and the help spreading the word. The timeline was very aggressive but it was a lot of fun working with both El Gaffney (http://www.elgaffney.com/), Clay and Hustlewood. Seeing this idea develop has been an amazing ride.

    Hey thanks–like the concept(s)!!!

  4. As you know we’ve been hustling (getting everything like this site up/running) and hustlin’ (getting the word out) when it comes to Obama Baton.

    It’s nice to see it all start to come together as well as see some people start to take note. In particular, we want to say thanks to (and direct you to) Peacock Nine and Hee-Haw Marketing for blogging about us.

    Thank you, PN. Hope you don’t mind if we “borrow” some of that language when pitching it to the press.

    And thank you to everyone who has shown interest thus far by visiting, commenting, following and/or joining this movement.
