We are thrilled to announce that we teamed up with Orbit Media Studios and Flanigan Communications, Inc  to launch Chicago Cause, a contest through which one Chicago-area organization can win $24,000 in web, social media marketing, and PR services.

The grand prize:

Recipient will receive:

• New Website designed and built by Orbit Media, valued at $14,000
• Marketing Video – also produced by the Orbit team, valued at $4000
• Social Media – training, planning and strategy by Lightspan Digital valued at $2000
• PR Consulting – a 4 month campaign managed by Flanigan Communications valued at $4000

How to enter:

The contest is very simple. It’s a bit of a non-social-media contest. It won’t require following us, friending us, sharing or retweeting anything. All you have to do is fill in the Chicago Cause entry form.

Any other prizes and perks?

You bet! The ten finalists will get a networking party and 30-second web video on Sept 16! The finalists, friends, fans, supporters, and all those interested will get the chance to network, and  meet other do-gooders in the community.  At this event, Orbit will produce a 30-second web video for each of the finalists.

Be part of the BUZZ!
