Winner Announcement of the "Life! By Design Contest" By Tom Ferry

This past weekend at RainCamp LA, the winners were announced of the "Life By Design Contest" that was being promoted over on Bob Stewarts Blog Post.  It was announced on Saturday that Tom Ferry's Book "Life By Design" is now a National Top Seller ranking #4 in the Nation.

Congratulations Tom, and thank you for joining us and speaking at RainCamp in Los Angeles.  We have received great responses from all those who attended, and your presentation was over the top! We were honored to have Tom Ferry as a part of the RainCamp LA event.  Tom's humor, insights, stories and content was "Top Shelf!"  We have a good suspicion that the "Life! By Design" book will soon be the #1 National BEST Seller.  Why, because Tom said so, and if you know Tom, then you know he's going to make it happen!

So here's a repeat of the contest description and rules:


THE CONTEST:

1. Read the preview chapter of the book found here: Chapter 4, The Problem of No Problems

2. Choose one of the following exercises and write a 300-500 word blog post about your experience with the exercise.

  • The exercise on page 39 of the excerpt
  • The exercise that starts on page 46 and goes to page 48. Pick one of the three areas: Professional, Lifestyle, or Health and Vitality and complete the exercise for that section
  • The exercise on page 54 (pick one question and write 300-500 words for one question or feel free to pick more than one question and submit smaller answers to multiple questions in one post)
(**completing the exercise itself, doesn't qualify you for the challenge. You need to have a 300-500 word blog post about your experience with the exercise. What did you learn? Did you realize something you had previously been ignoring? Did this bit of reflection cause you to want to get more introspective? You get the idea, right? Get something out of the exercise and share it with us)

3. Blog posts should include 'My LIFE! By DESIGN' somewhere in the title of the post.

4. At the footer of your post, please include this (including the picture):

THE PRIZES!

2500 points for every post submitted

  1. one (1) Apple iPad (16GB) ~$499
  2. One (1) hour of consulting with Tom Ferry via skype or phone (If you are local to Tom you can come into the office) ~ $1500
  3. One month of Power Coaching ~ $499
  4. Upfront seat for 2 at Tom's Success Summit ~ $598
  5. Expired Edge program and one month service of MojoSells.com (auto dialer system) ~$369
  6. Copy of Tom's Home Study Course ~ $75
  7. Autographed copy of LIFE! By DESIGN ~ Priceless!

The contest will end on April 23rd at Noon Central Time. Any posts written after that will not be eligible for the points or the prizes. Each post will be given one entry in the drawing for these great prizes. We will announce the date of the drawing soon, but it will be shortly after the conclusion of the challenge.

(RainCamp LA was the chosen place and time for the contest drawing!)

THE WINNERS!!

Now I could just list the names and what they won, but watching the actual drawing seems so much more exciting and something that everyone would probably enjoy more.  So here it is, a live recording of the drawing which took place backstage at RainCamp LA with Tom Ferry, myself, Lauren Bernstein, Doug Ching, and Jon Washburn as witnesses to its authenticity.

Congratulations once again to Tom Ferry, and to ALL the winners of the contest, especially the "winner" of the New iPad.  I have to admit that I was a bit jealous, and had I not been doing the video recording for this post, I think I could have out-run everyone there.  I could actually visualize and see myself snatching up and running off with one of Tom's books and the new iPad he was sporting for this drawing!  lol~

Hi Everyone!

Just wanted to say again CONGRATS to all those who participated in the blog contest ... and for taking the time to read the chapter ... or maybe just contemplating the exercises!  Well done, all of the way around!

My hats off to Jon, Brad, Lauren and Brad and the entire AR team who made this contest come to life! The AR team is one sharp group and quick to take action! Awesome! It was super cool to reach into that bag and see SO many names as well as read your blogs.

For all of you who I had the pleasure of meeting in LA over this weekend at Rain Camp, remember what we talked about ... "Level 10 baby!" I am looking forward to seeing a lot of you at the Summit!

Now let's all go out and kick some "booty"!!!

TF

P.S. For all of you winners ... My team should be mailing out the prizes on Friday, once I sign the books that I have with me, since I am out of the office until Thursday!

Brad (and ActiveRain) - Thanks for setting this up and as I said in my post, I hate Tom Ferry (for those that didn't read my post, I don't really hate him).  Tom's been a great guy to connect with in bits and pieces here and there via Twitter and ActiveRain.  I didn't know much about him, but have come to like him and look forward to each time I hear from him.  Now of course, I won something from him, so I like him even more.  (I can be bribed it seems.)

Tom - As always thanks for being active and (more importantly) interactive - even with those of us who haven't been a part of your coaching or didn't know much about you.  To me, that already puts you above most of the coaches, systems, gurus, swamis, and ninjas.  I look forward to seeing what my coaching experience is like...I've never had any official coaching (other than an awesome broker and great friends in the real estate business I can turn to when I need to ask questions), so I'll be curious to see how it affects me and what results I can achieve with it.

To the winners - Congratulations.  I think this is a contest where I would have been cool with any of the prizes.

To everyone who entered - Congratulations.  You may not of won a prize, but I bet you took away something good, I know I did.

And with that, I walk away from the podium and end my acceptance speech.

That ipad sure has my attention. I like the way it fires up without a long delay to use in listing presentations. I wonder if it works with our MLS in the DC area?
