I Want That Badge: 4SqDAY
Posted by CBanks in 4SqDAY, Badge, I Want That Badge on March 31, 2011
Just like last year foursquare is joining in on 4SqDAY fun with a badge! 4SqDAY is a fan-organized global event founded by 4SqDAY.com. You will unlock this badge with your first check in on 4/16! Easy right!
Here in Indianapolis we have a great idea on which venue that should be! We’ve spent months planning one of the biggest 4SqDAY celebrations in the world with a 4SqDAY Conference at the Marriott Downtown (just lowered the ticket price and they’re going fast!) and an after party right down the street at Scotty’s Brewhouse (don’t forget to use the #ILoveSBH hashtag). Come out, check in, get a badge, have tons of fun, and get some cool foursquare swag!

#4SqTIPS: Indianapolis #Foursquare Ambassadors
Foursquare has started shipping the Ambassador Cards in the mail, and at 4SqINDY we want to make sure that our local Foursquare Ambassadors have the tools to tell local businesses what Foursquare has to offer. Justin Kadis has designed a simple deck to walkthrough with local businesses to help them get a better understanding of what Foursquare is and how they can use it. You can browse through the deck below or you can download it here (PowerPoint) if you’d like to modify and use it.
Also to our local Ambassadors we would like to open our Indianapolis Special Offers page to you! We want to use that page to continue to show how Foursquare is being used right hear in our backyard. We’ve also set up a Twitter list so you can get in contact with other Foursquare Ambassadors more easily. If you want to be added to this list please comment on this post or at reply to us on Twitter at @4SqINDY. We’ve also started a Facebook Group for you, the Foursquare Ambassadors, to share tips with each other.
What other resources can we provide to help you make Foursquare more awesome in Indy?

I Want That Badge: Check in to the #Superbowl From Your Couch
Posted by CBanks in Badge, I Want That Badge on February 6, 2011
Foursquare is trialling a new nationally featured “place” to check into. What better way to try it out than Superbowl XLV?

“Super Bowl Sunday” will be available in the “trending now” section on Fourquare’s mobile apps. If you check in and shout which team you’re rooting for, you’ll unlock a Packers or Steelers badge. Badges will come with redemption codes for 20 percent off at NFLShop.com.
Though no money is changing hands with the NFL, I have a feeling we’ll see more of this soon, as an engagement tool for brands. A number of companies such as Miso, GetGlue and Badgeville have already begun to extend the check-in to things like TV shows and websites.
This represents usage growth opportunities and monetization events for a wider range of advertising. Foursquare, being the leader of the check-in game — and a proponent of constant evolution — is primed to get this going in unique ways.
