Anyone have a flyer sample for Janus?

I've got a great opportunity to leverage for my charity.  The county celebrates it's birthday each year on "Dare Day" in June (think small town festival with funnel cake, corndogs, and a homecoming queen).  The SPCA has a booth at the fair and they have asked if they can hand out flyers with my mugshot to promote my fundraising efforts for them (of course you can!!!).   Oh- and then they asked if I could make an appearance (like I'm some kinda celeb- ha ha ha).  Should be fun, I'll roll up on Fiona in my race kit and sign autographs

Anyway- I'm having a hard time figuring out how to easily direct folks to the Janus website to make their donation.  The URL that goes direct to my donation page is something like 100+ characters long.  But just sending folks to "JanusCharity.com" makes them go through this long frustrating search process.

Has anyone figured out a work around?

  • Have an e-mail sign up so that you can send them the link directly after the fact?
  •  Not a bad idea Michele!  I've come up with a flyer (with Linda's help as well).  The SPCA has been doing a great job promoting the event so hopefully we'll have lots of foot traffic.  This appeared in the local paper last week.  Joe sent the pic to me while we were at TOC with a note that Otto was starting to get a big head from all the attention:

  • Use a URL shortening service such as http://bit.ly/ or http://tinlyurl.com/ - they allow you to chose what comes after the /

    So you could have tinyurl.com/spcanow for example
