A collaboration and a new logo
Posted in Soles4souls and tagged with Soles4souls on 02/01/2010 06:00 am by Recessionista PartyI’m not really a starstruck person, not in the least. But when you’re building a business and someone of celebrity status recognizes you in any sort of way, it’s hard to not squeal like a 16 year girl at her first rock concert, literally melting to the ground. Thank-you Ken Paves for becoming a Recessionista follower via twitter and for the retweet love. You rock! And maybe, just maybe, one day you will to turn my hair to gold. (He does have that ability, you know.)
Speaking of twitter, do you tweet, retweet, and share the tweeting love? I’ll admit, the twitter phenomenon sends me into a dither (just ask my pr guru) but I think I’m in love with twitter, deeply in love. Really, where else can you contact celebrities directly regarding their project or cause and get a direct message in return? There goes the 16-year old concert thing again.
Thanks to twitter, we found an incredible organization and became aware of a specific project that fit perfectly with our desires and goals. After many conversations and email exchanges, the official partnership between Recessionista and Soles4Souls has launched. What does this mean? Some amazing prices on our products (we’re doing some ridiculous price slashing) for 50 days, donating a portion of our sales, sending shoes to those in Haiti, seeking your help in spreading the good word and announcing some super exciting things. I will have more on that later today. In the meantime, checkout the
p u r d y new logo celebrating this collaboration. You like? And check-out the prices in our shop. What’s not to like about that?
Don’t go away…..I’ll be right back.

Yes I LIKE and I'm so excited for more great pricing! I wore my hat & scarf combo to a girls night on Saturday night and got a lot of compliments so I was able to pass your name around.

OMG!!!! What could be better than this!? I can actually HELP people by SHOPPING!!?? I have just found my latest and greatest excuse to give to my husband: "Of COURSE I needed it…the people of Haiti NEED me! I am simply trying to do my part!"
Such a great idea, and way to spread the love! Love Recessionista!

I fall more in love with your blog every day! You are always searching for ways to give back and give more, and I truly adore and admire Recessionista for that! Keep it up – this world needs more "Recessionista's"!

That is great. Our ward and neighboring stakes are collecting shoes for soles 4 souls. Great cause. I know they featured it on Extreme Homemake over a week or two ago.
