As a Ford owner, you knew that by hosting a Big Drive House Party, you were part of something special.
Now the rest of the world knows, too.
Click here to read an article about Ford and The Big Drive in today's New York Times.
Is your party newsworthy?
Your local and regional media -- TV, radio and newspapers --may think so. For tips on how to generate "PR" for your own party, check your Party Favors.
Wow! I haven't received a call either but I did contact my local news channel regarding my party.I have chosen to turn my party into a charity event for my work. I work for an autism program and due to state budget cuts we have no money for materials or experiences to provide these children. This program is in desperate need of sensory activities and new equipment so I decided to get my friends and family together and everyone donated an item to raffle of an the proceeds will go to our site.Anyhow good luck to those who win it is well deserved where ever the stuff goes.
Well just found out the ford call was just about media they were contacting the media to see if they would be interested on doing some stories on some of the parties and the ford guy I talked to didn't know anything about anyone being a finalest because they don't tell him that information so I dont' believe I am a finalist oh well congrats to all who made it all the charites or persons will benifet from this great giveaway
WOW Canycerica, It sounds like you could be a finalist. I sent in my request and thought the website said that there would be an email stating that they had received it, but I never got one. I have gotten no phone calls either. GOOD LUCK to you and I hope you have a great party. Donna
I received a call from houseparty on Thursday asking for permission for the media to contact me, then a call from Ford on Friday asking about the ford I own and the Charity I picked Save the Animal foundation or Staf, they didn't say I was a finalist thought, and when asked he didn't know if the finalist were picked,
Thanks for all the extra down loads. The T-shirt ideas are nice. I also like the waiver to sign for a test drive. And the PR information. This is all very helpful. Let the party's begin.
Great PR for House Party! I continue to be amazed by this great opportunity to generate positive public awareness for such great products and services!
Wow this explains a little bit about the calls I have gotten, but have the finalist been chosen already for the Big give or not? that is what I am curious to find out. All the charites or cause will be good.
