I’ll admit it — I’m a gangsta. I hustle. I holla at the ladies. I run my own game. I got my own tracks. I even got a gold chain.
All kidding aside*, I truly adore pimping people out. So this is an open call to all wannabe gangstas who need a little pimp-love from A-Diddy.
Are you rad? Got mad skills? Unemployed? Job-hunting? Launching a new bizness? Trying to rock an Etsy shop? Send an e-mail to alexandra@alexandrafranzen.com and (assuming you’re not 100% mental) I’ll feature you in a weekly blog post called … you guessed it … Pimpity-Pimp!
What else? I’ll promote you on Twitter, shout your name from the rooftops, and visualize prosperity and piles of bling falling into your lap.
And what else? You don’t have to do anything in return, except reap the pimp-love. But hey, if you wanna tell your crew about my resume design services, copywriting skills, or public broadcasting chops, that’s cool. Even A-list gangstas need good karma.
So shoot me a note. Or leave a comment. Let’s make Unicorns For Socialism the International Center for the Study of Pimpitude.
P.S. In case you’re wondering, I’m flashing both East-Side and West-Side symbols in my pic, AND I’m wrapped in (faux) fur. Told you I was a hustler.
*I’m not kidding.
I’m interested! I’m a performance artist, writer, creative dabbler, and creatrix of awesome :D Always looking for opportunities and fun people to create more awesome with!
TIARA: Gorgeous! I will send you an e-mail to discover the exact nature of your pimping needs …
I think this sounds like a great deal and would love to be pimped out. Maybe it could be a swap – you could do a guest post on the pimped out blog about one of your specialties. You’ve got lots of good karma going today with your resume give away and now this :)
ERIN: I just checked out your site — “Earth observation data discovery and access?” Damn, girrrl! Consider yourself pimped, smarty-pants. E-mail on the way …
I would *LOVE* to be, as the cool kids say, “pimped” (but in a web-only way, of course). But can I hold off until July, when my fancy new blog is up and running?
ANN: Absolutely, mon cherie! Pimpity Pimp will be a weekly feature, so shoot me an e-mail whenever you’re ready. And congrats on the imminent re-blog launch!
Sweet! Sign me up. Would love for you to pimp out my resume at any time.
P.S. – I absolutely love your two part article on Yes and Yes, “How to hustle like a gangsta.” I sent it to all of my networking friends. They loved it, too.
CAITLIN: Glad you liked my guest-post over at Yes & Yes! Sarah Von is a queen among rapscallions. J’adore!
My theatre company always wants pimped out! We need the PR badly. I MAY want to hold off until either our summer fundraiser or fall production-but keep us in mind? And peruse the website for now? (I linked it)…
Also I VERY soon have an acting/directing/arts administration website coming…so maybe that could be pimped too? (Once I’m ready) I also link to websites that feature me, as does Gadfly, so you would certainly qualify for that :)
KATY: You can hold off till whenevs. Hustling has no expiration date. Just hit me up when it’s pimping time!
would love to be pimped!
BETTY: I’ll send you an official pimp-vitation via e-mail … hooray for Etsy gals!
Hellz yeah I wanna be pimped! And I give good pimpin’ in return. (Contrary to common belief, pimpin’ actually *is* easy.) I write, sing, run a magazine, be awesome, and other stuff too.
EMMA: I’m gonna holla at you via e-mail. Huzzah!
Oh pimpety-please tell me this offer is still open…Dian Reid’s the name and rockin’ authenticity’s m’ game. Found you via the lovely & amazing (& recently pimped-out) @ealvarezgibson. Cheers!
DIAN: Heck yeah! I’ll shoot you an e-mail, and we’ll get you slotted for the next Pimpity Pimp round-up.
Hey Alexandra! Found my way over here from the awesome When I Grow Up Coach. Love what you’ve got goin’ on here lady! I’ve just launched my cheerleading/coaching/consulting/conspiring business and I would love to be pimped out here on your incredible site. AND, I would love to feature YOU in my Inspiring Minds Want to Know interview series… where I feature amazing women entrepreneurs types and creatives that just rock my socks off. (You pimp my back, I’ll pimp yours…. or how ever that saying goes!)
Look forward to hearing from you!
xo & belief in all things YOU,
Carmen
CARMEN: Heck yeah! Sending you an email in 3…2…1…
From the home of some of the worlds best renowned hustlas, (I met a 5 year old in India that was more gangsta than than any rapper around but he wouldn’t give me his real name, I’m ready to be pimped. I own a Bikram studio and I’m opening a studio (purists call this a rogue studio) in Bed Stuy with meditation, hot yoga, pole dancing and other cool *ss movement to save the world. After watching that movie, “very young girls”, i’ve got a rather unusual possibly temporary inability to use pimp talk without cringing. thankfully I can still throw around motherf’ers with the best of ‘em.
