October is Women’s Small Business Month. To celebrate, PostcardMania, ShoeDazzle.com, Rebecca Minkoff and Women Power Up — all women-owned businesses — have joined forces to sponsor a contest for women business owners.
The contest, aimed at "women who strike the balance between work and life," centers on contestants answering one simple question: "How do you make owning a business fabulous?" Scores are compiled with 25% coming from the contestant’s answer and 75% from how many votes she receives.
Founder and CEO of PostcardMania, Joy Gendusa, says the contest is "a way to support women business owners. We wanted it to be more than just marketing help, though — we wanted it to be personal, too. We’re so pleased that ShoeDazzle and Rebecca Minkoff agreed to sign on."
The winner receives over $5,000 worth of free marketing, a three month subscription to ShoeDazzle.com and a Rebecca Minkoff handbag — a prize that tends to both the professional and personal lives of hard-working, successful women.
Women business owners from across the country will be promoting themselves and their business over the next few weeks to get as many votes as possible — and that’s exactly what this contest was created to do, says PostcardMania PR Director, Jessica Aguiar.
"Inspiring business owners to keep growing and moving forward, and giving them the tools to do it — that’s what we do every day at PostcardMania and this is a way for us to give back to women business owners on a large scale. Plus," she added, "They get fabulous shoes."
Voting on the contest opens on October 6th and ends November 12, 2010. Contestants can enter by visiting postcardmania.com/fabulous.
