RE/MAX is offering you a chance to win $10,000. This is a nine week, multi-platform social media contest asking consumers, “What Moves You?” Every week for 8 weeks RE/MAX is giving away a $750 apple gift card and the story with the most votes after 9 weeks will win a grand prize of $10,000!
What moves people? Pivotal moments do. It’s when they get married. Or find a job that’s not in their city. It’s when they learn they’re having a baby. Or when their kids leave home and their house feels empty and way too big. RE/MAX wants to focuses on these pivotal moments, and the contest gives consumers the opportunity to develop a more personal connection to the messages.
The contest starts today Tuesday May 29th, and the website to submit stories is here
How it works
The contest runs nine weeks, and participants will be entered when they submit one or a combination of the following:
Story (500 words maximum)
Video (3 minutes or less; must provide a YouTube or other video-sharing link)
Photo (JPG, BMP, PNG, GIF or TIFF not to exceed 10MB)
What moves them (whether emotionally or from one place to another) has to be compelling enough to move other consumers, too, because consumers vote!
The ongoing voting will determine eight weekly winners (tallied Monday through Sunday) and ultimately the grand-prize winner — named after the final grand-prize voting week, which ends Aug. 1, 2012.
The weekly prize is a $750 Apple gift card. Of course, the prize for the most moving entry is $10,000. That’s some serious motivation! AND there’s an added incentive to help kids. For each story submitted, RE/MAX LLC will donate $1 to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.
Interact and share
Although RE/MAX Affiliates and their families are not eligible to submit stories or vote, you can share the entry stories, videos and photos on your own social media profiles using share icons on the contest website.
