social media online marketing quantastic contest It’s the Holiday Season when friends and family, fun and gifts all come together. And it’s no different here at QuanSite. We’ve got a REALLY COOL CONTEST that begins Monday December 26th, 2009.

What makes it so cool? Well first . . . we’re giving you the opportunity to win some cool prizes. But second, and I would argue even cooler, is that by participating in the contest you’ll be giving yourself an even greater gift.

Here’s what I mean . . .

Look, everyone knows that you can’t grow your business in today’s marketplace without an effective Web presence. It doesn’t matter if you make your sales 100% online, 100% off-line or somewhere in-between — it’s an undeniable fact.

Obviously since you’re using the QuanSite New Media online marketing and Social Site-building system you’re intelligent enough to know that static old Web sites, single page sales sites or
regular old blogs just aren’t going to cut it in today’s New Economy.

The dichotomy dilemma . . .

The challenge is we all have a lot on our plates trying to grow our businesses. The “urgent” things take control and the not-so-urgent, but MUCH more important actions that have a long-term impact on your sales, profits and success . . . they fall by the wayside. And it can be even more of a challenge at this time of the year.

All too often, one of those low-urgency / HIGH-IMPACT actions is the creation and improvement of a powerful and EFFECTIVE Web presence. And when I say “effectiveness”, we’re talking about going beyond looks and just having a “site” or “sales page” up online. The QuanSite team has been hard at work coming up with ways to make that simpler and more fun for you.

The Zero-to-Quantastic contest is born . . .

We wanted a contest that is fun and engaging. But we also wanted a contest that would not only reward the top prize winners, but everyone who played full out. So, the Zero-to-Quantastic contest was born.

Your goal in the contest:

To create the most dramatic change in your QuanSite in a 30-day period. This can and should include:

  • Getting your QuanSite EZ-Ranking Home Page set up & live online
  • Adding content to your QuanSite Business-booster Blog module that will attract & engage your target audience

  • Creating an enticing opportunity for visitors to opt-in to your subscriber list
  • Utilizing the videos and audio features of the New Media Dominator module to build rapport and trust with your Tribe

. . . bottom line — anything else you can think of that will help grow you business. You don’t need to integrate everything listed above. Just what makes sense for you and your business.

The Zero-to-Quantastic contest rules . . .

The 30-day contest for QuanSite improvements begins on December 26th and ends on January 25th.

You can enter anytime during the 30-day contest period, but realize that the later you start the less time you have to make your improvements. The closer to December 21st you start the more time you’ll have.

To qualify to enter you can either be:

  • A new member on the QuanSite online marketing software system in the last month (registered on or after November 15th)
  • An existing member who, despite your good intentions, hasn’t done much serious work on your QuanSite

IMPORTANT! To be officially entered you MUST:

#1: Be an active member on the QuanSite New Media online marketing system.

#2: Submit your name and the domain of your QuanSite in a comment on this post

#3: Submit via a support ticket at http://QuanSite.com/support “before” images of your home page (http://yourdomain.com), blog home page (http://yourdomain.com/blog), and any other sales/landing/squeeze pages you may have created.

You can use either of the following methods to submit your “before” images:

- Still image screen-shots of each area using screen capture software like SnagIt

- A quick video screen-capture showing the “before” look and content of each area of your QuanSite. This can be done quickly with either of these two free tools; http://www.jingproject.com/ or http://www.screentoaster.com/

I personally like Jing better but use whichever works better for you. These are great tools to get introduced to the power of video screen capture in your business too. Another sneaky “gift” you get by participating in the contest. ;-)

#4: Along with your “before” images, submit a minimum 250-word essay on what you’re looking to achieve with your QuanSite, your online goals for your business. Explain why the actions you’re going to take to win the contest will make a big difference in the growth of your business. (This is also a sneaky way of helping you layout a plan for what you need to do to win the contest. :) )

How you can get an edge in winning:

You’re welcome to use any of our services to get you rolling out of the gate. When you take advantage of the QuanSite Power Jumpstart . . . Custom Site Build . . . Sales Booster Blueprint or other Ambassador “done-for-you” services — your site gets set-up faster.

But that’s just the foundation for getting the results you want. You still will need to take action to create a QuanSite structure and content that will engage your Tribe, help you grow your list and make more sales.

The really BIG advantage you already get for FREE with your QuanSite online marketing software membership is — QUANIVERSITY!

This same content we’ve included in the seven classes of Quaniversity when delivered to a live in-person group commands $1,500 and up per person for pure-content 3-day event. And much of what is shared in the Quaniversity classes forms the basis for $10,000+ strategic consulting projects with private business clients and politicians.

That’s the value that’s packed into Quaniversity waiting for you to take and apply it to explode your business growth online. You can access it all right from your QuanSite admin dashboard.

Putting what you learn there to use in this contest will make you one smart cookie. :)

How winners will be determined:

Winners will be determined by the judging of the QuanSite team combined with votes by other QuanSite members. There will be one first-place winner and one Runner-up.

Winners will be chosen based on the amount of improvement seen between the “before” images and the “after” live results. Although aesthetics will be taken into account, this is not a beauty contest. The main criteria we are looking for in contestant sites is the effectiveness of the resulting QuanSite to grow the members business (I.e.: grow their prospect list, make more sales, etc.)

The contest period ends on January 25th, judging by the QuanSite team and QuanSite members begins that same day with the winners begin announced on January 28th.
