'Never waste a crisis' MEGA SALE!
G'day everyone,
Hope you're going OK as the financial year draws to a close. We know that everywhere people are doing it tough but we don't want hard financial times to mean people miss out on Biblical Storytelling. That's why we're having a 'Never waste a crisis' Mega Sale.
Mega Discounts Available
- 25% off for Email List Friends
- 30% off for Twitter Followers
- Bonus! Another 25% off for non-Sunday Bookings
Conditions:

- Only one booking per person.
- Email list discount comes when you reply to this email - SO CLICK REPLY NOW!

For example...
Theo is on the email list. He has the idea for his church to run a Luke storytelling. He replies to this email, downloads the Luke hosting invitation letter and gives it to his church leadership. He then negotiates a date with Rob and books in a Saturday night as a special church event. He gets both the Email List discount and the non-Sunday booking discount making the cost: $380 x 25% off x 25% off = $213.75
Naomi wants to have a Ruth storytelling for her Sunday school at church. She has a Twitter account. She begins to follow @RobTurnbull. She retweets Rob's original message and then replies to Rob asking about a Ruth storytelling. She gets the Twitter discount: $220 x 30% off = $154.
Hannah wants 2 stories from the Samuel presentation for her school Christian Education class. She also is on Twitter so she gets the maximum discount (Twitter + non-Sunday discounts): $180 x 30% off x 25% off = $94.50
I hope you get the idea :) - Ask me if you have questions.
Here are the websites for the various storytelling presentations to spark your creativity:
