One week ago, I announced a program in which I was going to be selecting one person each month to receive $25 plus some bonuses to help jump start their own tiny businesses. I have some awesomely cool friends in the industry, and some of them have decided to jump on board and up the ante! I’m not yet sure how big this will grow, so that’s still up in the air, but at the moment we’re up to $100 (instead of $25) plus bonuses galore! And some of those bonuses include free hosting for six months, free consulting, and free logo design.

Let me send you on over to one post by my pal David Harry, in which he describes all the goodies that he is throwing into the pot. You’ll see that he, along with several others are jumping in to help make Project Jump Start even better. Gotta love this industry!

I’ll list more as I have more info on who is joining in and helping YOU jumpstart your business. This is great, great, great!

Don’t forget – I’ll be selecting the recipient on the 25th of each month. Make sure I know about you! You can get all the rules, etc. here. Once selected, if you are that month’s recipient, I’ll be sharing your name, email address, and paypal address with my friends who are also giving money to the project, so that they can send you their contributions directly. Just want to make sure that’s clear.

I’m very happy that David, Samir, Jeff, and any others that plan to come on board have joined up with me to make Project Jump Start even better! Thanks!

Update I’m keeping a tally of who is adding what to this project on the original post. Just go there and scroll down to the end to see everything that’s included by all the wonderful people who’ve jumped in to support this. If the list changes, I’ll update it there.
