Hey guys, this website is giving away a grant worth $250K to a small business.

My wife (and I a little lol) has started a small business that does wedding planning. It has grown over the last couple years into something that is worth investing in. We are thinking a location maybe, advertising, more staff etc.

I hate to have you guys go vote, but we need to have 250 votes on this website by Friday to be considered for the grant and it doesnt look like we will get there without me putting some stuff like this up. I could tell you more about the business if you want but I didnt want to seem like Im plugging the business here. If you guys have two seconds and a Facebook account (you may be able to vote without one) then please click this link:

https://www.missionsmallbusiness.com/pledge/3678119-chad.gutteron

Search "MAG events" in the box, and select Colorado. It will have you "log in using your facebook account" and you can click vote. I figured I would add all that because it was kind of a pita for me to find it myself. and linking the actual voting page didnt work.

So, to wrap it up, if you are bored and want to help us get to the point where we might be considered for a grant, that would be awesome!!!! if it matters to anyone, we will be raffling a $50 gift card if we reach the 250 votes to get entered. So that might be something to think about too...

Thank you co-ar15 community!!!!

Vote for wedding planning? On the list of "things to vote for", that's somewhere near Obama, cancer, gun control, herpes, and castration.

I kid! (really honey, if you see this, I'm joking!). I'd vote for you, but don't do the facebook thing, and it seems to be the only way to vote. Good luck!

Done. If I had my business started yet, I'd register there for the grant too. But I've got a bit of time ahead of me still.

Thank you man!

Once the business' get through this voting stage we will meet with some people to discuss biz plan and whatnot. it sure would be cool to get something going... My wife is doing some pretty high end weddings these days. Did one at the brown palace, did one that was about 400 people and everything down to a $2000 wedding on the beach on Oahu. she has come a long way!

Sorry but you have disqualified yourself. You should have read the rules

VOTING RULES

You may not entice Consumers to Vote by offering any type of consideration, gift, award, or inducement, including merchandise, cash, online currency, discounts, vote trading or anything deemed to have value in exchange for Votes.



So, to wrap it up, if you are bored and want to help us get to the point where we might be considered for a grant, that would be awesome!!!! if it matters to anyone, we will be raffling a $50 gift card if we reach the 250 votes to get entered. So that might be something to think about too...

.....Lol...... Thanks.... Looks like no dinner on me guys. Now you can just vote because you want to support small business....

Anybody who voted because they wanted to have a chance at a gift card can withdrawal your vote.. Or maybe I'll just meet you guys and buy a round... But not to entice you to vote....

And espamerica, I promise I won't give you anything if you vote for my small business...

I decided to try to get in on this myself.

Bavarian Motors is the business to search for and I will vote for you guys as well. Good luck to everyone!

Voting for us is voting against Obama and for Capitalism!

Just think,, with 409 views, we should have been able to let this thread die by now ;)

jk.. thanks for supporting guys, I know it's kind of a pain to log in and search and all that... MAG still needs over 200... so any magic that we could pull out would be awesome!!!
