The power of the media never ceases to amaze me!
We got home from a Sunday out and fired up the computer and checked on the Car Rally registrations. Cool, another car has been registered and on the line “where did you hear about us” was the answer “The Great South East”.
Wow, we had spoken to the TV show producers about getting a community announcement for the fundraiser. However, that was a few weeks ago and we’d forgotten about it.
So we turn on the TV, flick to Channel 7 and The Great South East is still on! Wow, that was fast. The show is not even over yet and someone has seen the announcement, checked out our website, decided it was a fun day out and registered!
Suddenly, there’s another one…. and then another one! We got three registrations before the show had even finished!!!! You guys are awesome! We also received another one that night – hopefully with more to follow!
Checking the TV Guide, it looks like they replay this week’s show next Saturday (5th May)at 11:30am on their sister channel Seven Two. We’ll be watching for sure (with one eye on the computer) for our thirty seconds of fame!
Thanks to all the wonderful people at The Great South East (especially you, Fiona) – you’ve helped us a lot! Think of the animals lives you’ve just helped save by helping promote the fundraiser for the Australian Wildlife Hospital.
