Contest: Help the InBubbleWrap King find his kingdom!
UPDATE: The contest has ended.
As the self-proclaimed InBubbleWrap King (having won 6 books so far), I declare this land my own and set forth to think a mighty thought that will enlighten and amaze my followers throughout this land of business book giveaways.
The only problem—I don’t know where my land is or what I’m thinking! If you can help me find my kingdom and give me the proper thoughts to rule, I’ll reward you with one of my 6 great treasures!
My six treasures are:
- The Art of Pricing by Rafi Mohammed
- Persausion: the Art of Getting What You Want by Dave Lakhani
- The Well-Timed Strategy by Peter Navarro
- Satisfaction by Chris Denove
- Laws of Lifetime Growth by Dan Sullivan & Catherine Nomura
- DisneyWar by James B. Stewart
But wait! There is a bonus treasure! If you can refer the most people to this thread (determined by those people stating they were sent here by you in the comments), then you win my most precious treasure of all!
How to participate:
- Download the photoshop file.
- Edit to your heart’s content.
- Upload to your own web space.∗
- Post a comment here pointing to the image you uploaded.∗∗
∗ If you don’t have your own web space, email me and I’ll help you get it online once you have finished editing the picture.
∗∗ You can utilize the <img> tag. Copy the following into your comment, changing the URL to point to the location of the image you uploaded.
[ <img src="http://www.YOURWEBSITE.com/IMAGE.jpg" /> ]
The Rules:
- Export the image at the same size—don’t grow or shrink it. (400×533 pixels)
- You can enter up to 5 entries.
- You can change everything, however the IBW King, his kingdom and his thoughts should be the theme. Don’t upload your artwork for exposure and claim the IBW King became an abstract swirl.
How to win:
Compete in the spirit of InBubbleWrap—make us laugh!
The contest will end the night of April 17, 2006. Comments must be placed by then to win a treasure!
There will be 6 winners, one treasure for each. One of my attendants will send out emails to the 6 winners once I have determined who they are, alerting them of their winner status. I’ll do my best to make sure nobody receives a treasure they already own, but no guarantees.
The bonus treasure will be awarded to the person who refers the highest number of people to this thread. For the referred person to count towards your total, they have to leave a comment stating “I was referred by blah blah” or “So and so sent me” or basically anything along those lines. (Just to be obvious, they need to change blah blah to your name.) It would be ideal if they contribute to the contest as well, but the InBubbleWrap King understands that not everybody has the ability to edit the image, but everybody wants to compete for my treasure!

You are the man. Oh wait….actually, you are the King. Can I have that Jacket?
Hey, I’ve won EIGHT books from iBW. Does that make me prime minister for life or something?
Lance: I’ll send over the paperwork for a treaty between your kingdom and my own … once I find mine that is!
I am happy to simply have joint custody over Mr. and Mrs. Bubblewrap
While you’re at it, can you once and for all clarify what my name is. I thought I was inBubbleGuy, but I’ve heard Mr. Bubbles, inBubbleWrapGuy, Bubble Dude, etc…..I am so confused. I need my identity solidified.
I just have one question, how long did it take you to win your first book on inBubbleWrap? I signed up a while back and use it everyday but have yet to win. :-(
Stephan: Can’t remember for sure, I’d guess two weeks max.
I see coneheads.
BTW, if we win do we get to pick with of the treasure books we want? Or is it at the whim of the Jaacob?
My goal is to make everybody happy with their treasure, but in the end it is at my discretion.
One of my coworkers has so far one 9 times, including 2 grand prizes. (The rest of us are jealous.)
Long live King Trey.
I can’t spell. “one” = “won”
Hey Stephan! I feel your pain…I play EVERY day, and have never ever won…not even once. Was starting to wonder if this was a scam.
I have not won anything yet. Am I not praying the proper prayer to the InBubbleWrap gods?
It’s all just dumb luck to win a book from straight from the source—of course you can win a book right here by entering my contest… ;)
He must be crazy…
Hey, bubble king, paper or plastic? We need to know at Custom Video Productions.
Frank: Not sure I follow you.
