The iContact contests that we were running officially wrapped on the 15th of February as we tallied and calculated all entries from verified sales that were referred during the month of January. A big thank you to all the affiliates that participated, and I hope every keeps up the great work they did during the contest period!
Now for the winners!
The first contest we were running was for any affiliate who had never had a verified sale prior to January 1st, 2009. This was to see which of these affiliates could see the greatest number of sales in a one month period, and they did not disappoint. Ultimately there was a nine way tie, and the ultimate winner was determined by random drawing. Congrats to Richard Bailey of Client By Design and Martial Launch! Services on winning a brand new Sony PS3!

The second contest was open to all affiliates and was determined by a raffle drawing. Each affiliate had to have5 verified sales to gain the first entry into the drawing, and for each additional sale received an additional entry.
