b5media Is Having a Small Business Contest
Did you hear?
There is a really nice little contest that b5media is running for Start-up and Fledgling businesses. I heard (Ok, read) about it from Liz Strauss of Successful Blog.
The Jumpstart Your Business Contest is easy to enter, just submit an abbreviated version of your Business Plan by eMail by September 25 (check out Liz’s Announcement for Full Details). They have some great prizes, but 2 really got my attention…
1. A Web Developer host package for one year (consists of 5 domains, 600 subdomains and 200 host external domains; 300 GB web space 3,000 monthly transfer volume and 50 ftp accounts; 4,000 email accounts and 2 GB mailbox space; $475 of vouchers to get you started with Microsoft adCenter, Google AdWords, Yahoo Search marketing and Citisearch; 10 free blogs and more), courtesy of 1and1.com
2. Over $1000 of free business advice (in the form of email, phone or Skype) from their experts to get you started! The experts include:
- Tax tips from Kelly Phillips Erb of taxgirl.com
- Consulting and marketing advice from Jim Norton of smallbusinessboomers.com
- Identifying business purpose and strategy for a blog from Des Walsh of deswalsh.com
- Copywriting tips from Brian Clark of copyblogger.com
- Home business advice from Mary Emma Allen of homebiznotes.com
just to name a few.
There is a lot of talent willing to help you with your home business, if you win. They also have some of the same type prizes for 2nd and 3rd place runner-ups.
So, if you are just starting out (under 1 year) or are planning on a Start up Business soon, you may want to enter this Contest. It sure couldn’t hurt and it could be well worth your while.
(I hope they don’t mind that I used their badge)
