If you knew that this past week was National Design Week than you probably also knew that TOM'S shoes was the winner of the People's Design Award. TOM'S shoes has an incredibly philanthropic 'busi-
ness' model. For each pair of shoes sold another is given away! But, if you already knew that, you may not know that you too can share the love ...
This from Blake Mycoskie's MySpace Page:
TOMS Shoes Sole Ambassador Program
This Fall, TOMS Shoes will be introducing it's new Sole Ambassador Program.
The Sole Ambassador Program consists of the following:
1. We send you a bunch of cool TOMS stuff, press clippings, post cards, etc.
2. You put your favorite pair of TOMS on and take some of this stuff to the best boutiques in your community.
3.
You introduce, not sell, TOMS to the store owner, buyer, or manager. We
will send you some great tips for doing this, but mainly it is just
sharing our story and your passion for the shoe and cause.
4. You fill out a short online form for each store that is interested so our sales people can follow up.
5.
Once you have submitted profiles on on 3 interested stores, we will
send you a very special, limited edition pair of TOMS and a Sole
Ambassador Certificate.
If you are interested in being a Sole Ambassador, please send an email to blake@tomsshoes.com with your:
Address,
phone number, shoe size, and a preferred time of the day that we should
contact you to go over any questions and/or details you need to get
started.
Thank you for considering this opportunity!
Carpe Diem,
Blake Mycoskie
