10,000 members - Make A Video - Win A Trip To Jamaica


To celebrate 10,000 members on RecruitingBlogs.com I wanted to do something really special and make it memorable. I wanted to share a place I go to every year that keeps me in line and keeps me sane and teaches me that sometimes, it's good to slow down. In this business, we all need a little sometimes. So, I called Donato at Broadlook and had the following conversation:

Jason:
Hey Donato

Donato:
Oh no, what now?

Jason:
That's no way to greet a friend? Did you see how many logo submissions there have been? Did you see the broadlook logo at the top of that post?

Donato:
(silence)

Jason:
That's right, I'll do the talking - There is this place in Jamaica and it soothes the soul and I think if we can figure out a way to send someone and a guest there for 4 nights and 5 days, life here on RecruitingBlogs.com may be a little sweeter.

Donato:
(more silence)

Jason:
It's in Negril on the cliffs overlooking the ocean and it's the kind of place that fixes everything that's broke. You know what I mean? I have been there 8 times, maybe 10 and before I'm dead, well, who knows how many more times I'll visit.

Donato:
Now we're talking!! We both have the same kind of dog so I figure I'll like that place too. I'll pack and maybe my wife and I can leave in a week.

Jason:
(Silence)

Donato:
Jason?

Jason:
You're not going anywhere. I was hoping that maybe BroadLook could sponsor it and you and I together could decide who is going to go based on an idea I have. Besides, this is a great way for Broadlook and RecruitingBlogs.com to kick off that long term visibility program you and I talked about.

Donato:
Tell me more

Jason:
Tell me yes and I will be the happiest guy in town today.

Donato:
Yes

Jason:
Wow, I can't believe we're going to send someone to Jamaica. Thanks Donato, that is very generous of you and your company.

Donato:
You are very welcome.

Do we really only have 2 submissions for this? So as it stands - it's a 50/50 shot of your name being picked out of the hat? I'll have to come up with something.......and at least make it a 1 outta 3 shot at this thing!

I just started thinking that I might enter the contest. I've got the mispokha in Jamaica and they would like to see me. Oh but I see now that the you win by a draw which means that it's a contest but not a competition so in spite of my superior film making talent I could lose to someone who just turned on the webcam and said "I like Recruitingblogs and Jason P. Davis."
