Dear all,
As promised - here is the update on the top five prizes (announced on the night) and extra prizes confirmed since the last blog.
Top Prizes
@colingilchrist at Redress - One user licence for Tweetabits - value £495
Tweetabits is:
1. designed for businesses who want leads come to them – a new way of reaching potential or existing customers
2. based on locality so you can search for customers in your area for direct targeting
3. a way you can tag and flag tweets as a way of sorting and streamlining leads and interesting tweets
4. brings the leads to you rather than you having to do endless searches to find them
5. a way for the first time you can choose to not include search terms in the same way as you can include them
6. a way to have as many search terms as you want (normal twitter applications only allow you to use up to 140 characters which is restricting if you want a refined search)
Colin will create a voucher which can be given to the winner on the night.
