Contest By Cash For Comments
When I first participated in the free 4-Hour Work Week Book contest, I considered it an investment for the future, jumped on the train…and look, I won the free book and I’ll be mentioned in “Blogging The Movie“! (See the picture of me on the left…this was taken at midnight…terrible photo…I look tired…but happy!)
As many seasoned and non-seasoned bloggers know, contests are an excellent way to create a win-win situation for both the blogger and their readers. For the blogger it’s the potential of getting more readers and for the readers it’s the possibility of winning something, which in this case is the 4-Hour Work Week Book.
The special contest is sponsored by Cash For Comments. They’ve dubbed it the “Contest Jet Train”. It’s different than other standard trains, in that it gives everyone a chance to become a part of the contest. It doesn’t matter if you are tagged or not tagged on the original list, you can participate by copying the list and adding your site’s name. It’s really a great way of spreading the news and hype of “Blogging The Movie”, Cash For Comment’s site and for those participating.
So How Does It Work?
There are a total of 10 winners, of which I’m the first of the 10 to win. When I won, Cash For Comments sent me my free copy of the book and sent a 2nd copy for me to sign. From there, I host the train and it’s repeated until the signed book has traveled to 10 places around the world. Each winner gets their own copy of the book and the second copy to sign. Once the book has finished its traveling, it will end up being included in “Blogging The Movie”. Sounds neat and unique, huh?
Who’s On My List?
I’ve tagged a handful of fun and informative blogs that I think deserved to be a part of the fun and who I think will most likely participate. :) I don’t see why not. I truly think this is a great investment for the future.
