Great Way to Start the Week

Posted on February 11th, 2008 as Site News

The Winning HandI was doing my normal Monday routine; sitting at work drinking an energy drink and catching up with my rss reader. I normally don’t read my rss feeds on the weekend and try to do my best to semi unplug to clear my head on the weekends. Also I am 23 and single so I like to go out and have some fun on the weekends.As I was going through my reader I was getting caught up and got to the feed for Internet Marketing Blog with Josh Spaulding. I just recently subscribed to his feed, I found it mentioned on another blog and liked it. He had a contest Easy Blog Contest - $350, Books and Free Coaching. I really liked his idea for the contest to enter you had to answer 3 questions (and the usual subscribe to his feed):

  1. If you had $10,000 to invest in your Business, what would you invest it in? This could be one thing or any number of things.
  2. What is your breaking point? In other words, what would cause you to quit trying to create a full-time income online?
  3. What are your three main priorities in life? (most important to least important)

I liked the questions he asked they are very creative. To win the contest Josh picks the 3 answers he likes the most.

To my Surprise this morning I won 1st place. It was a cool way to start the Monday work week. So what did I win? - $200.00 Cash, “Purple Cow” by Seth Godin, Free Coaching via email by Josh until March 1, 2008. I know it does not compete with Gyutae winning the Elite Retreat ticket but it still was cool in my book.

I wanted to share my answers that won the contest and I would like to hear your answers to these questions.

  1. If I had $10,000 to invest I would be lost. I have only been blogging a little over a month. I would use it mostly for promoting and link building over a period of time.
  2. There is no breaking point for me. I know I will not stop even if it is a part time thing.
  3. Number 1 would be my family, number 2 being a good person, and number 3 making something of myself

    Yeah I think some link building and buying a few ad spots is in the future soon.
