Operation 10000
« on: November 12, 2010, 05:44:58 AM »
"Operation 10000" will be launched by the Club at 2pm today. Here's a sneak peek ;)


In the video Benny Gale mentions that the Club's research shows there are 500,000 Tiger supporters out there of which only 42,000 are members. He admits the club doesn't have a clue who most of the remaining 460,000 supporters are but YOU do.

The Club as we know is aiming for 75,000 members by 2014 and so we need 10,000 new members in 2011 as a first step towards reaching 75,000.

The person who can sign up the most new members wins $10,000 which will be presented to them at the 2011 B&F night.


Here's the video (8.5 Mb) [works in Winamp and realplayer] :thumbsup

RICHMOND TIGERS - The Tiger is stirring 2011


SignUp Step - 1

The Tiger is Stirring in 2011 - I just joined the Tiger Army! If you join as a friend of mine and help me get points towards the leader board, you can win prizes too - Try it now! To be eligible to win make sure you sign up with the same email address that you use for Facebook.

More Info

Operation 10,000 is a digital membership referral campaign that has been developed specifically for the Richmond Football Club, it’s members and supporters.

Essentially, Operation 10,000 seeks to join 10,000 new RFC members in 2011.  New is defined by not having been a member of the Club in 2010.  In November 2010, all members will receive an e-mail inviting them to join Operation 10,000.  Joining Operation 10,000 costs nothing.  For those members who do not receive the e-mail or mis-place the e-mail, they can access the campaign via the Operation 10,000 link on the Club’s membership page of our website.
 
By following the prompts and joining the campaign, members are not only assisting the Club in our quest for 10,000 new members but are also entering the running to share in $25,000 worth of cash and prizes.  (See prizes tab)

Step 1 of 2 - Sign Up

Create your Operation 10,000 account. Click the sign up button on the right of the Operation 10,000 home page and enter your name, email address and a password and you are done. After completing this step you will have signed up to the Operation 10,000 campaign and you will receive a confirmation email containing your Operation 10,000 account details and a 5 point bonus to get you started.

Step 2 of 2 - Connect to Facebook

Connect your Operatiopn 10,000 account to your Facebook account. This is highly recommended as it will give you the opportunity to share the campaign with the greatest number of friends possible and increase your chance of earning points and winning prizes. Don't worry if you don't have a Facebook account, you can create one at Step 2 by clicking the Connect to Facebook button, or at anytime after this step by clicking on the Facebook Share buttons on the screen.

If you don't have a Facebook account or just don't want to connect your Operation 10,000 account to Facebook, just skip Step 2 of the sign up process and share the campaign with your friends via the e-mail Send-to-a-Friend feature. With the e-mail Send-to-a-Friend feature you can send the Operation 10,000 campaign to as many people as you like via email, and even include your own personalised message to each of them.

Remember, the idea is to share the campaign with as many Richmond supporters as possible who were not members in 2010.

Earning Points

Once you send the e-mails and post the campaign to your Facebook wall, your friends and family will be able to a follow link to Operation 10,000 online where they can watch the campaign video and sign up to Operation 10,000 free of charge. For each friend who follows your Facebook or e-mail Send-to-a-Friend link to the Operation 10,000 and completes the sign up process we provide you with 5 points. For those friends who also elect to purchase an RFC membership for season 2011, you will receive and additional 50 points. You'll then be well on the way to sharing in the prizes.
 
Your up-to-date points, along with a leader board can be checked any time that you log into the campaign with your email address and password.

Keeping You Updated

As your friends and family join up to the Operation 10,000 campaign you will receive confirmation e-mails. These confirmation e-mails will provide an update on your points total. The Operation 10,000 Leadership Board will update automatically when your friends sign up for the Operation 10,000 campaign.

You will also receive confirmation e-mails when your friends purchase an RFC 2011 membership. Points for membership purchases will be updated in the Operation 10,000 Leader Board every week on Friday.
 
Where a new member who is referred to the Club joins by an alternative means to the website, the Club need to be advised by phone 1300 742 466 or by e-mail membership@richmondfc.com.au to ensure that referring members have their points added.  The competition runs through until June 30th 2011.
 
For any further questions or queries please feel free to call the Club on 1300 742 466

I wasn't at the B&F but I wouldn't think it's the same.  Just a short talk by Benny Gale introducing Op 10000.  Not worth downloading to be honest.

    * One lunch for two people with Matthew Richardson – Randomly selected from any member who refers a new RFC member prior to January 31st through the Operation 10,000 campaign (not available to ACT residents)


LOL. I love Richo but I hardly think a lunch with him would be worth over $25,000.

i wasnt a member last yr or the yr before i see no need. as such i wont be again this yr. i will do the usual and donate in other ways. besides i give more each yr to the club than what a membership is worth.
as long as we all contribute i cant see why so many get uptight about memberships. lets stroke the egos and tell nm supporters we have more members. im not into the whole need to brag thing so long as we all contribute in our own ways.

last yr alone the rfc cost me about $6000,00 most of it just trying to get to see em play. yep theres support and theres memberships.
