Thanks For The Christmas Gifts Google!
Posted on December 17, 2007 by Tim Schroeder
For the past few years Google has been sending me a Christmas gift. It’s always exciting to see what will show up.
A couple of years ago it was a huge Google Beach Towel. You might notice the small hole in the upper right hand corner of the towel. It has had some use.

Then last year it was a pack full of cool goodies such as a cordless Google mouse, a 4 port Google USB Hub, a Google Thumb drive, Google headphones, and a USB flashlight.

This year Google sent be a really cool 2 GB Flash Drive that is slightly larger than a credit card!


Along with the flash drive Google sent a $100 gift card for making a donation to DonorsChoose.org. Pretty cool.
You might be wondering how much you have to spend with Google in order to receive a Christmas gift? At the moment I personally spend anywhere from $6,000 to $9,000 a month with Google Adwords. I think that is going to increase a lot next year as I refocus on more PPC marketing profits.
I think your specific gift also depends on how much you spend because there are some getting even bigger gifts such as a mini Google refrigerator.
Thanks Google!

I have also been using adwords for sometime now. I never thought google will send us Christmas gifts. So kind of them in this regard. We i don’t spend more than 1000$ per month. 6000$ per month is still a long way for me. Congrats!

Last year’s package looks awesome. I wonder why Google doesn’t send something cooler, like a wristwatch or Google branded iPod socks.

I spend from $3000 to $5000. Must have just missed the mark. I just got the card. Pretty cool though for friends who don’t know what I do. They think I’m special to get a card from Google. LOL

I guess one has to spend over $5,000 a month with Google Adwords to get those gadgets from them. Wow Tim! You are an Adsense fanatic. Nice gifts though! Javier.-

We’re currently ramping up our PPC campaigns, we were at around $800/mo in Oct 2007, and have tripled that to $2,400/mo right now. Hopefully that puts me well in line for some cool stuff next year. I wonder what the cutoff is?

Very nice gifts. But i think they give the gifts according to geographic location. I did not receive what you got there. Instead mine was a Google mini fridge.

I’m loving the towel. Wow I can’t believe you spend that much but it must be worth it or you wouldn’t be doing it. You blog is an inspiration.
