Blogging For A Cause

BIGCARROT GIVES BLOGGERS WAYS TO CROWDSOURCE ADVOCACY USING INDUCEMENT PRIZES

WHO: BigCarrot (www.bigcarrot.com), the Web’s premier resource for creating, funding and claiming inducement prizes, is leading the way for consumers and organizations alike to take advantage of them to facilitate innovation and change. BigCarrot was founded to allow those with common interests to collaborate and pool their resources to create an inducement prize—a method for innovation previously only available to those with substantial fiscal capital.


WHAT: BigCarrot is offering bloggers an opportunity to advocate for their causes through the creation of inducement prize on the BigCarrot Web site. Bloggers who are looking to spur innovation or promote change are invited to submit their inducement prize concept(s). Once concepts are received, BigCarrot will choose ten prizes, from among the submissions, for inclusion on the BigCarrot site. As part of the promotion, BigCarrot will waive the initial inducement prize fee of $100. In addition, BigCarrot will help launch the prizes with a minimum initial contribution of $250. The value of the prizes will increase once interest and demand for the prize grows among the site’s visitors.

BigCarrot welcomes inducement prize concepts in the areas of: computers, electronics, environment, mathematics, household, medicine, science, society and sports.


WHEN: Inducement prizes proposals are being accepted until June 15, 2008.


HOW TO SUBMIT: BigCarrot is now accepting submissions via e-mail. Please send a brief description of your proposed inducement prize to: myprize@bigcarrot.com. Submissions must be received by June 15, 2008. The prizes that are chosen will be notified via e-mail.
