30 Chefs, 3 Days, 1 Winner: Fall Potluck/Contest


We try to foster a sense of community here at AWeber, be it through friendly video game rivalries or joshing about Bob and Eric’s excessive decorating. Our bonding and socializing can lead to the discovery of common interests, as evidenced by this conversation, which may or may not have occurred at some point in AWeber history:

“Hey, office pal, do you like to cook?
“Yes.”
“Wow!”

This startling revelation inspired us to organize a company event in order to showcase the vast culinary talent we have on staff. A “put your food where your mouth is” scenario, if you will. Those of you more familiar with email marketing may be familiar with the technical term “potluck.” We decided to document the event, because everyone likes food.

(Mary actually won an American Express gift certificate for her fantastic dish, but we thought Fitzgerald’s roman à clef might help to class up the video a bit).

You can also watch the video on YouTube (plus another jokey one, not for the weak stomached!). Be sure to subscribe to our “emailmarketing” YouTube channel for more videos in the future. And feel free to check out our brand new Flickr page for fun photos:

    This is the kind of content we need to add into our email marketing mix… content that’s not specifically about promotions or education… but content that is more personal… to build rapport with our readers/subscribers!
