If you’re at all plugged in on Facebook and Twitter, you’ve noticed the increased back-and-forth flow of info on the Quirky pages. The Great Facebook/Twitter Fan/Follower Drive is in full swing! Here’s an update on the action thus far:
Our members are killing it on Facebook… we went from 399 to 640 fans in just three days. That’s a 60% increase — amazing! Don’t forget: we’re offering free idea submissions and Quirky gift packs to the community members who suggest the page to the most eventual fans. Check out all the details here. We’ve also posted an exclusive 24-hour Facebook-only discount coupon code for idea submissions, which is only accessible to fans.
The results of our Twitter drive have been a little less impressive. In three days, we went from 1,421 Twitter followers to 1,480. That’s an increase of only 4.15% — not too impressive. Any community advice on how to boost those numbers? We need your help to make this drive a success!

advice on how to boost Twitter followers: sponsor one day of next week’s charity promo launch of TweetMySmile that benefits The Smile Train (sent Ben & Tiffany an email, waiting for a reply – there are already a number of companies participating, Quirky could be one and it will help grow your Twitter following)

Be sure to have a lot going on for #followfriday this is by far the biggest day of the week to get followers – add in anything that will retweet #followfriday and @Quirkyinc as well as #quirky is that is how you track them at hashtags.org Other than than you can make it easier to link to twitter from the website…
