Hi all! Terry Starbucker here, reporting on the latest results of our 2008 Marketing contest.

We have 19 contestants going for the grand prize, a free registration to SOBCon08 plus two hotel nights thrown in for good measure. Let’s also remember and thank our contest co-sponsor, Plante Moran Financial Advisors!

For those of you not entered, there’s still 22 says left in the contest, so if you’d like to jump in send me a note at terrystarbucker(at)gmail(dotcom).

Here are the Top 10 linkers as of 6PM EST on 2/23/08:

1) Todd Jordan - 71
2) Alex Shalman - 49
3) Jesse Petersen - 46
4) Joanna Young - 22
5) Char Polanosky - 20
6) Phil Gerbyshak - 19
7) Troy Worman - 11
Stephen Smith - 9
9) Becky McCray - 5
10) Chris Brown - 4

Looks like quite a contest we have going here! Keep up that promotion - there’s a long way to go.

Thanks all, and tune in next week for the latest results.

Oh, and don’t forget to register!

(PS: I’m so pumped about this I’m going to put out a little hint on our very imminent hotel announcement - just think Petula Clark!)

Thanks for the update. I’ve been trying to get my offline friends excited as well about this. Tell your whole set of offline contacts as well. The encouragement will help.

Thank you for the update, I thought I was doing better. I have re-issued a campaign and according to Feedburner I gained 21 clicks just yesterday!

Great job to all! I have some people interested. I think I will have six actual sign ups - but they will be coming in after the contest. Oh well! -

Hey SOBCon; I loved how last year you started publishing the list of attendees, and kept adding to it, so we can all see who’s coming. Will you be doing that again this year???

Hey Derrick, Terry here - we’ll certainly be adding the attendee list soon - stay tuned! See ya in Chicago!
