* * APRIL IS CAMPAIGN MONTH * *<\/p>\n

April is Campaign Month here at Roswell Campaign Headquarters. We’re

\nthese efforts a huge success. I know that everyone can’t wait for the new
\nRoswell episodes. Let’s make sure that the whole world knows the return
\ndate — April 16th !!!!!!<\/p>\n

*** The Big Giveaway Campaign!! ***<\/p>\n

We can’t stress enough how important it is to promote Roswell right now.
\nMany fans have done a lot of hard work e-mailing the WB, Sponsors, WB
\nAffiliates and the Media. Others have been recruiting like crazy. We would
\nlike to reward some of that hard work. In addition, we are hoping to
\nencourage more fans to participate in the campaigning.<\/p>\n

Effective immediately, we are starting a new Giveaway Campaign. Fans should
\nnow include the following e-mail address in the bcc: portion of their
\ne-mails to the WB, Roswell Sponsors, WB Affiliates, Media organizations and
\nany people that you are recruiting. This should be in addition to putting
\nthe 4 WB addresses on the cc: bar. We would also like to know about any
\nactivities that you do to promote the show. Have you been handing out
\nRoswell Flyers in your city? Are you sending e-mails to friends to create
\nnew fans? We definitely want to know about it. Send all such information to
\nus as well.<\/p>\n

roswellgiveaway@theddd.com<\/p>\n

In recognition for all of your hard work, we will be giving away prizes and
\nRoswell merchandise. Each week, a really active Roswell Promoter will be
\nrecognized for their efforts. We have a Lexmark Z32 color jet printer 1200
\ndpi (7.5 pages per minute) to give away. We also have Roswell trading cards
\nand copies of various Roswell scripts to give away. This is going to be
\nreally fun! Please join us. We want to make sure that season 3 becomes a
\nreality.<\/p>\n

*** Roswell’s Return – Hit the Media! ***<\/p>\n

It’s about that time! We really need to make the media aware of Roswell’s
\nreturn on April 16 and request that they publicize these remaining episodes
\nas much as possible.<\/p>\n

So we ask that you email and\/or send snail mail to your local media –
\nnewspapers, WB affiliate, radio stations, magazines, websites, etc. You can
\nalso find a list of contact info for several national media outlets at black
\nwidow’s SOS site: http:\/\/www.fanforum.com\/howto\/SOSsite\/page4.shtml<\/p>\n

So get to it! And *please spread the word about doing this to as many fans
\nas you can – those who are online and those who are not.*<\/p>\n

Roswell thanks you!<\/p>\n

~The Campaign Crew
\n——————
\nNOW’S OUR LAST CHANCE!
\nRecruit! Promote!
\n*Write to sponsors, affiliates, and WB – go to Ros2!*<\/p>\n

—————————————————————————-
\n—-<\/p>\n

* * E-MAIL SPONSORS AND COPY THE WB * *
\n* * SEND SPONSOR REPLIES TO THE WB * *<\/p>\n

In each newsletter, this section highlights a few sponsors from Roswell.
\nThese sponsors spend thousands of dollars to advertise during Roswell. ***It
\nis the advertising dollars that pay for the show to be produced.*** Please
\ntry your best to send a quick message to these sponsors indicating how much
\nyou love Roswell. Thank them for supporting the show and encourage them to
\ncontinue their support. It is also wise to mention the sponsor’s
\nproduct(s), if you know what they are. Please be very courteous and polite.
\nPlease contact them in your spare time. This is really important!<\/p>\n

AT THIS VERY CRITICAL TIME, FIONNA (BLACKWIDOW FROM ROSWELL 2) HAS
\nRECOMMENDED THAT WE CC: THE WB ON EVERY SPONSOR E-MAIL USING THE FOUR
\nADDRESSES SHOWN BELOW. FIONNA’S SAVE ROSWELL SITE ALSO HAS A LIST OF
\nSPONSORS: http:\/\/www.fanforum.com\/howto\/SOSsite\/page3.shtml<\/p>\n

faces@thewb.com
\njamie@talk.theWB.com
\nsusanne@talk.theWB.com
\njordan@talk.theWB.com<\/p>\n

IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT:
\nWe got a response a few weeks ago from Andrew at The WB that he is
\nforwarding sponsor replies to The WB’s COO! So *please remember to send any
\ngood responses you get from the sponsors to the 4 WB email addresses listed
\nabove* – most of the sponsors’ responses are great so pass them along to The
\nWB!….THEY ARE NOTICING!<\/p>\n

Please spread the word about doing this, folks! We’ve got even more
\nincentive to do this now that we know our efforts are being noticed by The
\nWB’s COO!<\/p>\n

Please find out who this week’s sponsors are and join our discussion:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/bbs2.fanforum.com\/Forum12\/HTML\/002427.html<\/p>\n

—————————————————————————-
\n—-<\/p>\n

* * WB AFFILIATES * *<\/p>\n

An important source has recommended that we focus more attention on the WB
\nAffiliates. These stations are an important part of the WB family. Many of
\nthem are owned by the Tribune Company, which owns a major share in the WB.
\nThey can provide major feedback to the Burbank office. They can also choose
\nto promote the show more frequently if we bother them enough. ARE YOU UP
\nFOR THE CHALLENGE?!!!<\/p>\n

Please join our WB Affiliate discussion and see this week’s featured
\nstations:

* * IMPORTANT VOTING * *<\/p>\n

USA Today’s annual poll for which shows should stay and which should go is
\nnow up at their site. Go here to vote to keep Roswell:<\/p>\n

www.usatoday.com\/life\/enter\/tv\/saveourshows.htm<\/p>\n

Let’s get those #’s high, everyone! Please spread the word about this as
\nmuch as possible! Roswell got 42% of the vote last year. We can do much
\nbetter than that this time!<\/p>\n

Thanks!<\/p>\n
