We're getting scared over here!

Do you know what's scarier than reaching out to the gay community? Not reaching out to them! What all of us members of the community (both LGBT folks combined with their friends and family) know is that gay friendly businesses are preferred over those who well... aren't. With all of the things that have been in the news lately, such as the New Jersey wedding shop believe it illegal to sell a wedding dress to a lesbian, it's not surprising that the community turns to gay friendly business directories to prevent such situations.

That being said, getting involved in directories who's purpose is to supply the community with gay friendly businesses is the best way to do so. We believe this enough that we are going help make the fright go away with a contest so scary, anything else will pale and shake in their boots in comparison.

What is the prize for this contest?

Well, I'm glad you asked.

There's a reason I've been abusing the scary reference in regards to something that's not scary at all.

On Halloween, we will be choosing one Facebook and one Twitter follower to receive a FREE Home Page Banner package in one of our directories.

A Home Page Banner package includes the following things:

• One Home Page banner that displays at the top of every page
• 5 Single Category Listings, includes one 4x5 full color art along with business name, address with Google map link (or a tagline), 2 phone numbers, fax number, web link, & email link

Great! How do I enter?

It's easy!  All you need to do is be a follower of our Twitter account or like our Facebook account.  It's as simple as that.  We will be choosing a winner from both groups. That means we're giving away TWO of those packages! Plus, if you happen to be a follower of our Orlando accounts, but your business is based in another geographic area other than Orlando (such as Tampa or Miami), you can still enter! We are located in 26 cities across the United States and will honor the package in one city of your choice.  The prize is non-transferable, though. So, you must be affiliated with the business that will be advertised.  

Two Step Entry:

Pick one (or both for two chances to win!):

1. Follow our Twitter account. 
2. Like our Facebook account

Plus, share this post in some way (pick one, please): 

1. Retweet the tweet about the contest from our Orlando Twitter account (or from our twtter feed in the sidebar to the right).

3. Share the link from our Facebook post about the contest.
4. Share this post on Google+ (we have a handy +1 button to the right in the sidebar up there) and link to that post in your comment here or add #OrlandoGayPages to the post somewhere.

When you've followed one of our social media channels and passed this contest on to the network of your choice, if you still have a moment, please post here with your thoughts. It could be on topic, or what you had for breakfast.  If you want to get in the spirit of the month and the contest, feel free to post a picture or drawing of a jack o' lantern so our scary one up top has some friends.  All in all... have fun and good luck!
