Editing The Pen Addict 101/transcript (section)

== Giveaway Results ==


'''Brad Dowdy:''' But no, I knew it would be several hundred entries. I didn't know that we'd actually crack like 500 or so, but just doing the basic giveaways on my blog, I know there'd be enough. I know there'd at least be several hundred that would go in and fill out the form and, you know, try to win one of these awesome prize packages. And on top of that, we sold, what, like 113 t-shirts so far, something like that?

'''Myke Hurley:''' Again.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. I was worried we would sell 30.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I was like, oh, we have to sell 30. I really, really hope that we'll sell 30. And we sold 110, which is insane. So I've sold t-shirts once before, and I mentioned this. I used Teespring for the 70 decibels t-shirts. And we sold 93 in two weeks. And we sold 113 in one week. And again, you can go and buy the t-shirt. But at the point now, like we tried to sell them for, and not intending to make much money from them. But now, because we sold so many of them, it's profit, which is good, which helps me and Brad do this show. So there is now an added incentive. Like if you enjoy the show, it's a great way to now. Before it was just, we want to make a t-shirt for everybody. We feel like we've done that now. So if you enjoy the show and want to help support me and Brad, and also if you want to help try and fund Nakaya for Brad, go and buy a t-shirt. And that's at teespring.com slash penaddict.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, and you still have another week or so for that too. I think it expires like Monday night or maybe even Tuesday morning, something like that. A little under a week left to get that. I can't wait for people to get these in their hands. I can't wait to get mine. I'm pretty excited about this t-shirt thing, to be quite honest. So hopefully we'll see them out in the wild and we'll see some pictures. Maybe we'll have to have our own Flickr photo set or something.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, I was going to say I wanted to do that actually. It kind of sucks because so many people are going to have one before me. I remember the 70 Gecebels t-shirt. Maybe for like nearly two weeks, people were sending me pictures of them wearing them. I was like, it's my network. Where is my dude? Because obviously it takes longer to ship them to outside the US. And I think they give estimations of it all.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I remember getting mine super quick. Once it closed, it was here like fast. So I still wear it all the time.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Teespring are actually really awesome. I've been super impressed with them and pleased with them on the times that I've used them. And this time too. If you are someone who wants to sell a t-shirt, just go for it because they're a great... It's a great way to not have to worry about it. Like we could have got t-shirts printed ourselves and all that sort of stuff. But this means that we don't have to worry about any of it. Like we don't have to get a stock and try and work out how many to make. That sort of thing.
