The Ultimate Sports Social Media Job - Persons Interested?

I wanted to take a quick moment to share some details about an exciting new sports social media related contest we launched with XFINITY in case there were any persons  that were interested in entering for a chance to win.

We recently worked with XFINITY to launch The Ultimate Sports Social Media Job contest in search of the next sports social media star. The winner will receive a full-year salary and will go behind-the-scenes at dozens of the biggest sporting events in 2012, sharing insights and unique vantage points with fans at home. The winner of the contest will essentially win the ultimate launching pad for a career in sports and social media.

Contest Link:

To enter, interested participants can submit a :30-2:00 video on the official contest tab (located on the XFINITY Facebook page) through February 6th. Check out the details in the link above and please be sure to share the contest with any of your industry friends/colleagues/young employees who may be interested!

Best Wishes,

Brian
