Ultimate Swag Bag Auction Series — Introducing the

An idea for domainers to help charity.

Following paying $127.50 for a sugar cookie in the name of charity, I had an idea. Couldn’t we auction off some other swag for charity?

So I’m going to give it a shot. I’m introducing the “Ultimate Swag Bag Auction Series” on Reglike.

Here’s how it will work. For each auction, a domain name firm will put together a nice swag bag. Now I’m not just talking regarding a handful of chotskies that I could just pick up from your booth at a tradeshow. It needs to be really cool. Ideally, you throw in something really cool plus offload some t-shirts and trinkets from your swag closet. The total package ought to be worth at least a couple hundred dollars in total, and perhaps more.

What’s in it for domain firms:
-Get publicity on Reglike
-Help a charity
-Get some domainer to proudly wear your t-shirt around town

What’s in it for bidders:
-Help a charity
-Get some cool swag
-Get mentioned on Reglike

At first we’ll just try auctioning a swag bag off on Reglike using the comments system. If necessary we can upgrade to a real auction site.

So what do you think? If you’re a firm interested in putting together a swag bag for auction, hit me up at editor (at) domainnamewire.com.
