WAHM Prize Contest #2 - Phase One

by Kelly on August 20, 2007

Here we go again! It’s the second “Who Should Win” contest here on that Work at Home Moms Talk Radio Blog!

Our first contest went great! I can’t wait to give away another gift!
What’s up for grabs?

One year membership to Shannon Cherry’s Penny Pinching Publicity (value of $179).

It includes:

“Penny Pinching PR”, the monthly newsletter chock full of publicity articles, media contacts, resources and expert advice that will help you craft your own PR to get noticed by the media.

A members-only online forum where I’ll post addition information on publicity topics. It’s also a place to ask questions and have me- and other members - help you.

A special section in the forum where I’ll post the “Hot Lead of the Week” - where I will put you in touch with a reporter who is looking for an expert like you for a story that he or she is working on. You’ll get their names and email addresses and their story angles so you can contact them directly. We’re talking big name publications and media outlets like The Wall Street Journal, CNN, and Newsweek, as well as Parents and Ladies Home Journal.

Fill-in-the-blank press releases for you to customize and send out. Each month, you’ll get an easy-to-use, press release ready for you to use to get more publicity. But more than that, I’ll share a simple checklist for you to use to get it to the right reporter, each and every time.

Each month, you’ll learn tactics and skills to get you and your business noticed by journalists in your own backyard - and across the country. You’ll save thousands by doing exactly what PR firms do without hiring a PR firm!

Plus three bonuses:

Bonus #1: A media list of the top 100 business publications in the country, with contact details (a $100 value)

Bonus #2: A media list of the top 250 daily newspapers by circulation (a $300 value)

Bonus #3: Master the Media audio presentation, which shares the techniques to get your own PR campaign started (a $37 value)

So, who would like to win it?

All you have to do to express your interest in this prize is say so by posting a comment (telling us who you are and why you want to win this prize) on this blog post - and be one of the first five to do so.

Note: This Contest is not open to current members of Penny Pinching Publicity

Once we have five contestants… we’ll open up Phase Two.

WAHM Prize Contest - Phase Three (Who Won?)

by Kelly on August 19, 2007

The results are in. The votes have been tabulated. (And tabulated again)

Wow! The race was CLOSE!

It came down to a cat and mouse chase between Alyssa Avant and Jennifer Gniadecki and all three of us have been biting our nails and watching the votes stream in this evening.

With a crazy total of 119 votes overall - these are the results:

45 people voted for Alyssa Avant, making her our official “Who Should Win” Winner!

Congratulations Alyssa and thanks to all who voted.

But… that’s not all :)

There’s a twist.

There has to be!

In this case, the twist is that Alyssa was already a current member of Mom Masterminds when she entered the contest. But, since I hadn’t made it a rule that current members couldn’t join - her submission was fair and good.

But - Alyssa has already paid for five of the twelve months of towards her Graduated Lifetime Membership that she just won - so technically, I still have five months of membership to give away :)

And I have decided to give that five months to Jennifer who came so close to winning.

So, congratulations to Alyssa and Jennifer!

And truly - I am so grateful for the huge turn out for our first ‘Who Should Win’ Blog Contest!

Watch for the new contest to be posted on Monday morning - we’re giving away a One Year Membership to Shannon Cherry’s Penny Pinching Publicity!
