it's about my daughter... Izzy
Published: Mon, 04/19/10
With your permission... I'd like to introduce someone special to you!
I'd like to introduce you to my daughter - Izabella Mills (Izzy).
Many of my online friends have watched Izzy grow up infront of them
via the web over the last 6 years.
Isn't it wild that my daughter's entire life will be easily documented from the web,
seeing her grow up, go to school, ride a bike, play with friends, get a job, boyfriend,
married, kids, someday... Grandkids and have it ALL documented via the web
with Video!
Well, that's the kind of world we live in now. It's what we are doing for Izzy.
Well, I am excited to announce, Izzy is turning 8 years old on Thursday, April 22
(Earth Day).
And I've been working with her for the last month or so, getting her ready for her
first ever - PRODUCT LAUNCH!
That's right - I think this maybe qualified as the YOUNGEST person I know of
to do an internet product launch, and we'd like to invite you to become a partner
in Izzy's success.(we just need evangelists who will share her site with people as
there's really not any commissions she can pay! Don't let that be a buzz kill either, cool?)
Izzy just began her first blog, which I think you'll enjoy seeing here too:
So far, she's posted a few videos about herself there, and we're doing a launch
video sequence right now too. So all the launch videos will be revealed there.
You can even see her first ever screenplay and movie that she directed, called,
"The Zombie Princess" which is pretty good actually.
So... Today - you can see her first product launch video.
We'll be releasing another one on Wednesday, then Thursday and then on Friday.
We'd be honored if you can share her site with your family and friends. You'll
see what she is up to when you visit her site. With any luck, and some passionate
friends, many of you will share about Izzy and her site on your twitter feeds, facebook
streams and blogs, and again, we'd be honored if you helped out for her launch week. (all she can pay you with is free hugs... is that ok?)
She's starting a website for kids to play learning games, win cool prizes like iPods, Wiis, DVDs
and other really neato stuff that kids love.
She's also gonna help parents learn about internet safety for kids which is so important
for little eyes and ears when they get on the web and start surfing, it's hard to keep the
bad stuff outa their vision.
"Be careful little eyes what you see"
Don't you think this is a cool project to get behind?
Do you think you can post about Izzy? Blog about it? Post to Facebook, Twitter and
all the social web and create a storm of publicity for her? Create some buzz?
Wouldn't you all love to see this 8 year old have the best birthday ever beginning her
journey as a web entrepreneur while doing good at the same time?
People will happily send top marketers $1000's but never open the boxes to the DVDs
and use their product.
That is not what we are asking you to do here.
We're just asking you to be "the social web". Share this with everyone, watch it grow
viral and as a marketing test, we'll see how far it goes in 1 week.
Maybe she'll even get on the local news eh? I think that's my goal is to see some local
publicity come from this... she'd love that! :0)
If you are a local or distant reporter, email me back if you wanna feature Izzy
in the news where you live.
So, please check out her site: http://izabellamills.com
Then, watch for emails from me Weds, Thurs and Friday. She'll be revealing the new site
to you all on Thurs, so you'll have to wait with anticipation until then! (typical of product
launches right? Making people wait, until launch day!)
In His Grip, ><>

PS- Izzy love reading comments on her blog, so if you have a nice encouragement
for her, please post her some birthday wishes or well wishes for her product launch
on Thursday!
