And the Winners Are….

Pin It

Last week I posted a contest to win a copy of Seth Godin’s new book Tribes.

Well the time has come to pick a winner. Actually TWO winners as Wayne Harriman of Wallingford Wired was kind enough to donate a copy of Tribes for the cause.

And now, as people across the planet (seriously! we had international entries) wait with baited breath, I present the video of the drawing…

 

 

Want to know who wins? You have to watch the video! (or wait for the whining and gloating in the comments)

Remember winners, you HAVE to give the book away when you’re finished reading it, that’s the rules!

THANKS to everyone for playing. And if you didn’t win, you may want to seriously consider buying a copy of Tribes. It’s a great book.

Of course, you could also just suck-up to the winners…

 

Edited to add: I can’t believe I pronounced Wayne HARRIMAN’s name wrong the second time I said it. Sorry about that Wayne. Such are the trials and tribulations of “live reality video”…

I was totally apart of that. I’m glad we made it! Thanks for sharing.nice post, i’m glad the bathroom scale really has my best interest sat heart.

I will also send my copy to someone who registered in the initial drawing so if you registered for the book but did not get it - click the link to my site and fill out the contact form with your mailing address. The first person who does that will get my book after I read it. :)

@Rob Cook - Very thoughful of you Rob!

Go ahead and scratch my name off the list though, I just got a copy in the mail yesterday! ;-)

Keep hope alive, non-winning contest entrants! I'm going to forward the copy of Tribes I won to another contest entrant once I'm done reading/internalizing it.

Congratulations to the winners! (Lucky, lucky...)

I've been watching some of Seth's videos lately and then with all the talk about Tribes, well...let's just say I need to make a run to the book store.

**Ricardo Bueno´s last blog post..Social Networking: is it good for small business?</abbr></abbr>

Congratulations to the both of you! Just don’t forget to send it on it’s way after reading it. (no, this is not a suck-up, my copy is in the mail to me already)

darn...i'm not a winner! congrats to those who are, though!

Where are these two winners? I'd like to pay a visit to them so that I can borrow the books, what else? I wish I found this blog while the contest is still on. Let me know when you have another contest. :)

Looks like some ugly August home sales numbers released today.

Uglier more so for residents of Phoenix.

YOY numbers down almost 31%. Worst in the country.

Hi all, I just got to see the drawing Jay and his daughter conducted, and even though I already knew the outcome, it was exciting nonetheless.

I’ll do as commanded and give it away when I’m done reading it. I think I’ll invent some semi-coherant formula to give it to another entrant on the original comment thread. Yipeee!!!

Can't believe I missed by 2!! D'oh! Oh well. I went ahead and ordered the books on tape version anyway. I downloaded it it my Garmin Nuvi 750 and am enjoying listening to it in the car. Congrats to the victors.

Hey Jay,

What fun that video was! And Happy Birthday to Lauren. And congratulations to her and her band. But, it looks like I need to buy the book. Boo-hoo, a loser again! LOL

**Marianne´s last blog post..Figure your BMI in one easy step</abbr></abbr>

Great job Jay and Happy Birthday Lauren.

The contest is a great idea. I just e-mailed the broker associates at The Berkshire Group, and offered a limited similar contest. If a few people in an already established tribe begin to understand the value of the tribe, the tribe can move mountains.

That was a great way of doing the drawing, very creative an fair. One of the few so called "contests" that was actually what it said it was, not just a ploy to get people to your blog. Great job!

Oh, and thanks again to Jay Thomas...uh, I mean, Thompson for having this great contest! (wink wink!)

1) Happy Birthday, Lauren, and congrats to your band for the fine showing in Riverside!

2) Congrats to both winners!

3) Rob, please email me at wharriman (at) gmail dot com with your mailing address so I can get your copy of Tribes out to you ASAP!

**The Harriman Team´s last blog post..Mortgage Rate Update 10/24/08</abbr></abbr>

Jay, talk about linkbait and an excellent marketing plan by Seth! I actually have been looking forward to this day and you sure made it fun by making a video of the drawing. Now to start prepping your daughter (as I have been) for a rewarding career in real estate! :-)

Nice to see someone I know win...

Grats Wayne!

Congratulations to the both of you! Just don't forget to send it on it's way after reading it. (no, this is not a suck-up, my copy is in the mail to me already)

Who is Seth Godin? Is he another one of those internet marketers selling internet-marketing materials to people trying to market on the internet?

Great job Jay and Happy Birthday Lauren.
