"May there only be peaceful and cheerful
Earth Days to come for our beautiful Spaceship Earth as it
continues to spin and circle in frigid space with its warm and
fragile cargo of animate life."
--United Nations Secretary-General U Thant
March 21, 1971.
What Is Earth Day?
"Earth Day
is a time to celebrate gains we have made and create new visions
to accelerate environmental progress. Earth Day is a time to
unite around new actions. Earth Day and every day is a time to
act to protect our planet." (Earthday.gov)
Earth Day Landing Page & Coupon
Check out
the Earth Day landing page
here.
This has loads of Earth Day gift ideas for your website's
visitors. Here's the link you'll need to add to your website:
Gaiam has
also got the ultimate Earth Day gift idea
here.
Eliminate the production of 22,000 lbs. of carbon dioxide
emissions with our new
Global
Warming Action Kit.
If only 1
million Gaiam customers put our kit into action, together we can
eliminate the production of 22 billion pounds of CO2! And if all
125 million American households took these tiny steps, we'd
eliminate the production of 275 quadrillion pounds of CO2 — an
enormous step toward mitigating global climate change.
Here's the link you'll need to add to your website:

Gaiam Linkshare RSS
Gaiam is
pleased to announce that we have implemented Linkshare's new
RSS feature. As of writing there are two RSS Feeds available
to affiliates.
1. Gaiam Pre-coded Consumer Videos
Add
Gaiam's video files (see below) to your website through RSS.
The videos will have your Linkshare Affiliate ID embedded
into the video files to track your sales. Check out an
example of the Video Feed in action
here. (There'll be loads more video files added
shortly). This is a easy way to promote Gaiam's products to
your consumers. For help on implementing this RSS feed
email us.

Add Video Files
Promoting Gaiam Products To Your Website
Would
you like to like to have high converting promotional videos on
your website that contain your own Linkshare affiliate links?
Would you be even happier if you don't have to worry about
bandwidth and hosting the videos yourself? Would you be ecstatic
if it took less than 1 minute to generate the code for the video
player and add it to your site? Read on...
Get Started Now And
Promote 'An Inconvenient Truth'
Through Video!
Instructions below...
The links that
will be built into your video player will all
include your Linkshare Affiliate ID. By simply cutting and
pasting the code below into your website you can easily turn the
promotional video above into a powerful, revenue-generating tool
that can quickly be added to any web page...
After you've generated and tested out your video player that
promotes 'An Inconvenient Truth' you'll notice the
following:
The text
link at the bottom of the video player
is a clickable affiliate link. (You'll have to check your
cookie cache to see your LinkShare cookie that's dropped via
the software).
When the video is done
your visitors will automatically be directed to a landing page for
'An Inconvenient Truth' through your affiliate link.
Anyone can add your video player to their site via the "Add To
Site" button, and of course the video player includes your
affiliate link.
You can email a friend a link to your video player via the
"Share" button, and again the video player will include your
affiliate link.
The video file you'll generate is 100% viral! We believe
that this system will take affiliate marketing to the next
level. Try it out and see.
***Important*** Once on the pages above do not enter a link in the
box on the page. You need to provide your unique Linkshare Affiliate ID code
that is contained within your affiliate links. Your Linkshare Affiliate ID code
is: [SITE.CODE]
