WordPress Website Give-away for National Entrepreneurship Week

Author: Kim Beasley

In celebration of National Entrepreneurship Week (February 20 – 27, 2010) I am giving away a WordPress website package to an entrepreneur who needs to develop his or her online presence. According to their website, the purpose is a “Celebration of the heritage of entrepreneurship in America and NEW opportunities for a NEW GENERATION”.

This is the 4th year for the celebration and in 2006, the House of Representative made the following resolutions:

Encourages the implementation of entrepreneurship education throughout the United States;
Supports the goals and ideals of National Entrepreneurship Week so that the people of the United States are reminded of the contributions of entrepreneurs and so that educators are encouraged to reflect on how entrepreneurship education can improve the performance of their students; and
Requests that the President issue a proclamation calling on the Federal Government, State and Local governments, schools, nonprofit organization, and others to observe National Entrepreneurship Week annually with special events in support of entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship education programs.

So to celebrate these resolutions and the implementation of them, I am giving away a WordPress website package to an entrepreneur who needs to develop his or her online presence. In order to qualify, you must meet the following criteria:

Have only one business
Have been in business for 3 years or less
Has a need for your online presence to be enhanced (this means that you don’t have a big presence)

The WordPress website package will include the following options:
