Last week I posed this question to Small Biz Bee readers.
To "encourage" participation we offered a $20 Amazon gift card to one lucky respondent.
The Question Was…
You’re given $2,000,000 to open a store (can be a physical or virtual) and your only requirements are:
- You have to give your product/service away for free
- Your success is judged on how much you give away
What Would You Do? How would you decide what to put in your store? What would it be, and why?
The responses we got were fabulous (I expected no less from the outstanding readers of Smallbizbee.com!). Well thought out, and creative, and let me just say I’m glad we picked the winner of the $20 by random, and not by the quality of the answer…I don’t know if I could have picked “the best”.
And the Winner is…
Wayne Liew!
Congratulations to Wayne for being our comment winner. As the winner he’ll be receiving a $20 Amazon gift card on us! In case you’re curious, here is Wayne’s response to our question:
As a business consultant, the $2,000,000 will be a big extra for me to help more small business owners. Because I enjoy learning and passing on my marketing and business building skills to others, I actually don’t mind giving away this service for free. In fact, I am thinking of allocating part of the $2,000,000 fund to creative small business owners who just don’t have enough money to grow or to spend on small marketing campaigns.
Wayne also runs a small business entrepreneurship blog that is well worth checking out if you haven’t done so already.
On the Up and Up
Wayne’s winning comment was picked by Random.org, from the 14 comments that were submitted between April 19-26, 2009.
A Big Thanks!
Thanks to everyone who participated. The quality and thoughtfulness of the responses was impressive to say the least…if you haven’t, take a few moments to see what our readers came up with.
