Twitter Trending Campaign for @officialmballas

Ok guys, we need to band together and get Marky on the trending topics! If you've never done a trending campaign before, this is how it works:

  1. We pick a day and a time period (it only works if there is a large amount of tweets at the same time)
  2. We use only one specified hashtag to try and trend. For instance, we could use #markballas or #markballasmusic
  3. You include that hashtag ONLY ONCE on every tweet you tweet that day during the time period. If you include a hashtag more than once in a tweet, Twitter treats the tweet as 'spam' and ignores it. It will not count toward our campaign...and could possibly hurt our campaign.
  4. While you can include the hashtag on all your tweets...even tweets not about Mark, try to tweet about Mark often! The idea is that when we get Mark trending, people will click on that trending hashtag and see what all the fuss is about...and learn more about Marky. :) So, link to his videos, his website, my website, his twitter, whatever! Just promote Mark!
  5. Retweet each other! seriously, it's an easy way to get a tweet out there. Just make sure you are RTing the tweets with the hashtag. :)
So what do you guys think? We could pick a day and time when people are more active and able to tweet. If you can tweet from your mobile..do it! :D

So, give me some feedback about this. What days and times do you guys tweet most often? Would you be willing to do this and spread the word? Got questions? Let me know!

This is a big task, and it takes a lot of tweets to trend...but we can do it! (Just warn your followers that you might be a little overwhelming that day with Mark tweets. LOL)
