Since this website is about, “Our Journey to Online Fame & Fortune” we thought we should start sharing with our readers some of the other sites and projects we have been working on.
You can help with our latest case study. We are looking for your tips, suggestions, and comments to help us promote one of our more provocative websites. I addition… we would love to hear some of your ideas for creating additional revenue streams for the site as well.
We created an online business a while back that was based on an annual radio bit taken from our favorite local morning show; the Dave, Shelly and Chainsaw Show on 101KGB FM in San Diego. Every year, just after Valentine’s Day, they give the guys a chance to celebrate a holiday of their own which is known as Steak & Knobber Day, or “Valentine’s Day for Guys“. If that term offends you, this is probably a good time for you to switch to another blog for the day.
Still with us? Good. The premise of S&K Day is this; Valentine’s Day is really all about the women. Guys buy flowers, chocolates, jewelry and do the romantic dinner just for their ladies. We are expected to do this, and for the large part we go all out willingly. With Steak & Knobber Day, which takes place on March 20th each year, all we ask for in return is something we all can appreciate (and somewhat deserve): A good old fashioned steak and a well deserved knobber.
Let’s face it, we aren’t looking for a new car, or even the latest high-tech gadget that could put you back several hundred dollars. A $10 steak dinner is all it will cost you, and the second part you can do yourself for free. I guarantee you will get a compliment even if either part doesn’t turn out the way you would expect it to. We are guys, so all you really have to do is show up and we are good to go. You can burn the steak, drop it on the ground, and you will still have a satisfied customer upon completion of Part II of this little known national holiday. For the married guys out there, we are trying to get you one more other than the one you get on your Anniversary if you are lucky. Some would say that was a joke, while others would call that statistically correct.
You can help us to take Steak and Knobber Day from just a great idea and be a part of the success as we try making money online with it. How would you help to promote Steak & Knobber Day throughout the world? What merchandising ideas would you come up with? Do you find it offensive or funny? As we are both family guys, we tread a fine line with this product. We don’t want to offend anyone, or turn this into an X-Rated product. We do think it is a very funny concept, and would like it to go from a local popular holiday that is favorably practiced to a globally accepted holiday for the better of all mankind.
Visit the website at steakandknobberday.com and tell us what you think. What would you do if you were going to be making money online with the Steak & Knobber Day website? We designed several items through our Cafe Press Store, and rely on those purchases for income without having to carry any inventory.
What techniques would you use to promote your products online? How would you encourage others not only to participate, but to wear and promote your products? We are serious about this, so please include sincere comments with your opinions in the comments section. This is a family friendly website, so please refrain from explicit comments.
