Do you want to bolster your resume and stand out from your Summer Startup Academy colleagues? We’ve got the perfect contest for you to showcase your Hustler/Hack/Hipster/Hack skills: The “Always Be Closing” Contest is on. Here’s how it will work:
First Prize: Dinner with Paul Judge at the July 23 Bonfire
Second Prize: A Set of Steak Knives
Third Prize: You have to use IE6 as your web browser
The Game Plan
- You have from now until Monday, July 22 at 11:59 PM ET to secure the most # of gifts of $50 or more to Hypepotamus, Inc, benefiting the Summer Startup Academy.
- You can use any of the materials we’ve shared on www.savethebabyhippos.org
- You can create your own videos, images, text, or other media to share why people should support the Summer Startup Academy
- This ain’t cut throat, so do this with honesty and integrity
- To get credit for a gift made, you need for your donors to put your name in the data field “Who Referrred You?” that can be found on the online giving portal.
- If your donor wants to write a check, make it payable to “Hypepotamus Inc.” and send it to 817 West Peachtree St NW, Atlanta, GA 30308. Fund need to arrive before the Monday, July 22 at 11:59 PM ET deadline.
If you have any questions, just shoot an email to Scott Henderson.
