Hi Guys! A few weeks ago, I received an email from a woman who works for a PR company looking for brands to provide gifts/products for a celebrity party. I shy away from that form of advertising but I always appreciate being included so, as a rule, of course I wrote back. Out of the blue a week later, she sent me an email recommending to me that I enter this America’s Favorite Small Business contest being held by Microsoft/Mastercard/Dell for a huge prize.

I looked over the rules Thursday night, made a plan on Friday, put together the video all day Saturday and then entered it on Sunday as the contest closed. It makes me cringe to re-watch it because it’s so horrifyingly honest and unabashedly corny. However, it’s all true, my mom seems to like it and the contest people picked it as a finalist so I guess it’s not all that bad.

Anyway, the contest goes on for a month and anyone can vote once per day without singing up for an account. If you’re able to vote even just once, I’d really appreciate it. If you’re able to vote everyday, you deserve some sort of prize that we’ll flesh out later. (Feel free to email me if you want a daily reminder: kw@wintercheckfactory.com)
