Online marketing guru sells his company on Ebay
March 30, 2006 at 12:24 am | In Ebay Auction | 21 Comments
Freestyle Media founder and director Fred Schebesta is putting his company under the hammer for cancer in the first Ebay auction of online marketing consulting services from Australia.
‘My girlfriend recently got diagnosed with cervical cancer, which really knocked me for six. . I’m trying to be as supportive as possible, and be there for, but I felt helpless. and really felt the need to do more, so I sat down and thought about what I could do’.
I tried to think about what I know how to do – and in the end came up with the conclusion that all I had to offer was the sweat of my brow, and thought that it would be nice to . I then had a chat with the guys I work with, and they all unanimously agreed to help out and volunteer their time as it’s such a great cause.
What do you hope to achieve?
Ideally, I would like to raise some money, but more importantly, raise the profile of cervical cancer, and contribute in some small way to awareness of this terrible disease.’
How do you see the event working?
Basically, our entire team (we have 15 full-time staff) will work with whoever wins the auction for a full 24-hour period, to produce anything to do with online.
We plan to go from midday on day 1, with a client briefing session, to midday on day 2 with a finished product.
What are we offering?
- An entire Web site from beginning to end
- A banner campaign
- Emarketing plan
- Acquisition campaign suggestions and brainstorm
- Complete review of a company's online presence, with a Web audit that starts at midday and finishes at midday the next day with a 10 page report

Total sympathy. Congratulations to you and your team on taking action – I will post about this tonight.
I have people asking how to integrate a blog with their website but I don’t see you offering that: clearly you can do it on your ear. Something to add to the pot?

Yeah blog integration is sweet as a pickle. We have a new website coming out that will have some cool integration going on.
