The John Hall & Associates agent contest to Win an iPad went down as a complete success! I had a blast checking out all the entries and like Dru Bloomfield said, “I was checking the intranet as much as facebook and twitter.” One of the primary goals of the contest was to get agents more comfortable with the discussion section on our intranet; mission accomplished!

We had 28 REALTORS® submit a total of 58 entries that included photos of their John Hall & Associates real estate signs. Varieties of themes including real deal marketing images, professional listings, local sceneries, retro and comical designs gave the judges some real tough decisions to make.

The entire corporate office was blown away by the quality of the entries we received. The creativity and originality was AWESOME. Even the photoshop skills that came out to play were impressive. The picture I thought was for sure going to win the whole thing didn’t even place in the top ten; the votes were spread across the board.

As much as I would love to share all the positive comments and feedback received from the judges, I know you’re here for one reason; and like all contests, in the end only one can receive the top prize.

Thank you all for coming together and supporting our contest. I am proud to be apart of this John Hall & Associates community.

3rd Place: Dru Bloomfield

2nd Place: Rick Park

1st Place: Allen Rebenstorf
