I was strictly looking for sales contest themes when came across this book. Thank goodness I did. It put things into perspective before I launched the contest. I must admit that I almost fell into the trap of having only one winner. By designing the contest using the ideas in the book, it really helped me run a contest that our reps loved and produced so great results. Thank you MArk and Marcy for the information.
