We have decided to change the
current Pertuity Competition, it was clearly too complicated and long winded before – and we are big enough to admit we screwed up (Ok.. I screwed up!)
So, in order to get your hands on the super sleek Amazon Kindle worth $359, read on! (And this is open to bloggers all over the World) .
Pertuity Direct is a new kind of social lending network that rewards good borrowers with great rates. So after talking to the guys there we have come up with a simpler and more interesting competition idea.
If you were loaned $25,000 today by Pertuity Direct, what type of online business would you launch?
Simply write a blog post explaining your idea and why it would work. The guys at Pertuity will review the entries and send the Kindle to the one they think is the best.
Please link your post to Pertuity as it will help your readers know where to visit for more info.
As soon as your post goes live, please email your review URL to help {@} fuelmyblog.com.
All entries will be linked to on the Fuelmyblog website competition page, closing date is now the 1st June 2009
Good luck
