WIN $100, COOL SWAG FOR SENDING THE PALMETTO SCOOP/MADE IN MULTIPLES A FUNNY TWEET

Are you a marketing genius? Do you play one on Twitter? Or, at the very least, are you capable of coming up with a creative idea every now and then?

If the answer is “yes,” then you could win $100 and some cool prizes in the first ever ‘Marketing Genius’ free Twitter t-shirt contest — emphasis on FREE — brought to you by The Palmetto Scoop and Made In Multiples.

The contest is simple… we want YOU to help us come up with a short, humorous South Carolina-related phrase to go on a Palmetto Scoop/Made In Multiples t-shirt. That’s it.

For example, “Mark Sanford went to Argentina and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.” Or, “South Carolina: As seen on Mark Sanford press conferences.”

Keep it funny (and PG-13), be creative, and have fun. Here’s how it works:

  1. Follow @PalmettoScoop and @MadeInMultiples on Twitter (must be following both to win).
  2. Tweet as many phrases as your creative mind can conjure up to @PalmettoScoop and @MadeInMultiples and include the hashtag #TPS. It should look something like this:

    @PalmettoScoop @MadeInMultiples YOUR PHRASE HERE #TPS

    You have 104 characters after the hashtag and everything, so you may have to abbreviate a bit.

  3. The Top 5 phrases will be unveiled on The Palmetto Scoop next week. Readers will then be able to vote on their favorite phrase.
  4. Everyone who makes the Top 5 gets a free t-shirt and tote bag. The person with the winning phrase gets a free t-shirt, tote bag, $50, and the title of “The Palmetto Scoop/Made In Multiples Marketing Genius” (along with a cool trophy to show off about your genius). That person will also be featured in all their glory on The Palmetto Scoop.

So basically, you can win beer money and some damn cool swag for doing nothing other than sending us a funny Tweet. It’s that simple.

If you’re not on Twitter and want to enter the contest, then simply go to www.Twitter.com and create an account. Then see above.

Happy Tweeting!

    I won’t enter the contest as it wouldn’t be fair.

    But here’s what I would put on a shirt:
