prize-27-11

A $5000 value call with the man who can tell you how to CRUSH IT with your passions.

Do you have a biz or idea and need help branding it? Are you struggling with figuring out how to put your passion to work for YOU? Do you want to figure out how to become superman? If you’ve answered yes to any of those questions, or any other question you’ve ever been asked, then this prize is for YOU!

Gary Vaynerchuk has become a LEGEND for his passion. From Wine Library TV, to becoming a best-selling author, this dude has the formula DOWN — and he says it’s living your passions. Are you ready to put Gary’s multi-million dollar mind to work for YOU? This is your chance to talk to @garyvee himself, 1-on-1, for an entire hour — that’s HUGE! In fact, that’s about a $5000 value in GV wages.

Now you have to make a move to win this week’s BIG prize. It’s a 3-step process: FIRST – Hit that “ReTweet!” button on the left to enter the contest. SECOND – watch for all the tweets from @tweetaprize on Twitter that start with “Clue #27-11-” — 10 to 12 clues in total. THIRD: Use those clues to answer the Prize #27-11 question correctly (on Monday) for a chance to WIN!

That’s it. You don’t have to do anything else. And don’t worry if you miss any clues — they are always listed on the Tweet-A-Prize frontpage after they’re tweeted, or you can check them out on Twitter Search.

Not convinced yet? Just go watch a little Gary Vaynerchuk at his website and you’ll understand why this prize is so special!

For fun and introspection, here’s a question for the comments discussion: What passion of YOURS would you most like to do ALL THE TIME for a living? Why? Answer in the comments below! Who knows — someone might see your comment and be able to help you on your way

Prize #26-3 - WIN an AUTOGRAPHED copy of Blink 182's "Greatest Hits"!

The ULTIMATE in Autographed Music Technology.

My friends: I welcome you to the next generation in music playback. No longer do you have to worry about losing your music when your hard-drive goes down – no magnet will kill one of these. Afraid the RIAA will come after you for sharing MP3’s? This next generation of music playback will keep you from the temptation of illegal pirating. Scared you just have too much disk space and will lose track of all your music? This new medium is just large enough to be visible from anywhere in the room – even when your laptop is on standby. Play it anywhere with a big slot in the stereo: the car, the home theater, even a computer. And best of all: it’s physical, so the band-members can actually autograph it instead of sending along PDFs with pictures of them and strange inside jokes.

Ladies and gentlemen: I present to you the Compact Disc – “Greatest Hits” – signed by all members of Blink 182. You can thank State Farm and the Blink 182 Summer Tour for this high tech miracle!

You know the drill: hit that green retweet button to retweet this post so you’re entered, and then answer the Prize #26-3 question when we tweet it out. If you get it right (we promise it’ll be easy and we’ll give you several hours to answer) you’ll have a shot at winning! Full rules HERE.
