100% Charity Tuesday on now!

It’s Tuesday today, and that means it’s 100% Charity Tuesday. So, how do you take part and make money for charity?

Well, this is what I’m going to do:

I’ll tweet about the digital camera I bought last week and recommend it to my followers – but before I publish it – I need a Good.ly link.

To create a Good.ly link, I need to find the camera on the retailers website, and copy the URL.

Then I’ll open Good.ly in a new window, and paste that URL into the space on the Good.ly homepage.

I can select one of the three charities, then click ‘Make it Good’.

The Good.lyfier 3000 will pump out a new, shortened URL for me to use in my post. I just copy it, and paste it wherever I want it, and if someone clicks on the link, sees the camera on the retailers site, and decides to buy it themselves, 100% of the resulting sale commissions will come back to the charity I originally clicked on.

The more people that click, and buy, the more cash for charity!

Do your bit on #CharityTuesday!

Sunny London Sunshine

Miss Good.ly Two Shoes is slightly taken aback today; as we’re faced with a heatwave here in the UK; quite out of character for our neck of the woods!

However, the weather got me thinking about all the lovely things I need (or really, really want) to help me get through the warmer months, and the particularly sunny knock-on effect should I happen to tell all my friends about the products that I love! If I post the product URLs using a Good.ly link, and my friends buy – the commissions from the sale will go to charity!

So I’m thinking I need a hat. A nice little quirky hat that can offer shade and a few extra style points. http://good.ly/u35ku7

Ok, well there’s a boy wearing this Urban Outfitters hat in the picture, but that doesn’t mean it’s not for girls! I love the pattern, and it ticks all the right tribal trend boxes! Oh, and HELLO! It’s on sale even!!

The boys have all the fun don’t they! This New York Hat Company style is bang on – shall we call it…unisex? http://good.ly/mjtjke

I also have a wee nagging feeling that my three-seasons-ago shorts just aren’t going to cut it. I need to go cut-offs.

This pair has just the right amount of worn-out with a 5.5 slouch factor that ensures you’ll wear them all summer long! http://good.ly/um9lwo

And of course, I will need a soundtrack – I’m feeling a little La Roux http://good.ly/aiobdg, maybe The Gossip http://good.ly/axhru2 and where would I be without the late great Michael Jackson’s Greatest Hits? http://good.ly/axhru2

Well, you get the picture! This is how Good.ly works – you write about what you love, and just like word of mouth, sales happen. But with Good.ly – the commissions from the sales go to charity!!

Try it yourself – it’s 100% Charity Tuesday tomorrow, all the better reason to give it a go!

You know what time it is!

It’s Tuesday tomorrow and that means we’re going to give 100% Charity Tuesday another crack!

All you have to do is post a Good.ly link for a product or service on your Facebook, Twitter…anywhere, and if the link generates any commission, we’ll give it all to charity!

Yep, the whole 100%.

So get shortening for good!
