Attention to any upcoming internet entrepreneur out there who has been sitting on a great idea waiting to take action – now is the time to take action! Tim Ferriss (entrepreneur & author) and Shopify (an online store creation platform) have teamed together to put together the “Start Your Own Business & Win 100K” contest. You heard right! Not only is this a great incentive for anyone out there looking to make it as an entrepreneur, but it’s also a chance to get help and advice from someone who is actually living the entrepreneur life. Read on for the full details and how you can get started in this 6 month contest scheduled to start January 1, 2010.
The Contest:
The Start Your Own Business contest is open to anyone in the US over the age of 18 who has a new product or line of products to sell. Here what you need to know before heading into competition (pulled from Tim Ferriss’s blog):
* $100,000 for the grand winner
* $120,000 total in prizes
* 6 months starting January 1 but you can (and should) get started now. Even two weeks of practice will give you a massive advantage. I strongly suggest playing with it now.
* The best two consecutive months of sales count
* Even if you don’t win the prizes, you should end up with a viable business at the end of 6 months
* The steps and details in the new, expanded 4-Hour Workweek book will be used as ground-zero for instructions
* Contest open — unfortunately — to US residents only.
This is a great opportunity for anyone out there looking to launch an online business. It’s not too often that a contest for entrepreneurs such as this comes around, which is why I would encourage anyone sitting on what they believe to be a good idea to take the leap and go for it! You have nothing to lose here, and participation can easily be done right from your home with a few hours of time invested into it. Here’s where to enter:
- CONTEST: Start Your Own Business & Win $100,000
- FULL DETAILS: No More Excuses – How to Make an Extra $100,000 in the Next 6 Months
