Free songs for reviewing a doctor?
I wish I could take advantage of this offer - but I can’t since I’m in Canada - so I thought I’d pass it on to my faithful readers. Vimo, an online company that makes it easier for individuals, families and small businesses to shop around for health insurance, doctors, dentists and even surgical procedures, has a great offer for anyone that wants to help them build their directory.
So what’s this offer? Simply go to the Vimo site and rate your doctor. Easy as that. When you finish rating your doctor you’ll receive a code that will allow you to get 5 free songs at emusic.com. See, I’d love that, I could get more music for my iPod. Another bonus- you’ll get a code for five free songs for every doctor you rate. Is that cool or what?
New inventions and New sales techniques
Dancing Ipod Robot
TOKYO Now, you can not only dance to the music on your iPod, you can dance with it, too. A dancing iPod robot went on sale yesterday in Japan. The digital music player locks into the top of a dancing boombox-on-wheels. It looks a little like a ball popping out of an egg. The Miuro dancing robot will also play music from a P-C over a wireless connection. It sells for about 930 dollars. International distribution is expected in the second half of next year.
FREE HYBRIDS
WATSONVILLE, Calif. How do you sell energy-efficient homes in a slowing market? Toss in a fuel-efficient car. Clarum Homes is offering buyers a freebie Toyota Prius hybrid to clear out the last five homes in a Watsonville, California, senior housing development. The half (m) million-dollar-plus homes feature solar panels and other energy saving devices. Officials at Clarum decided the free hybrid would do more for the environment than a price cut on the homes.
