UPDATE: Congratulations to Jennifer Gallaher for winning the Welcome Spring – Spring Cleaning Contest!

Hope Springs Eternal … that was the title of an email I received this week from a client. Not only did the title of the email exude positivity, the irony wasn’t lost on me either, given the fact that Springtime is right around the corner.  To celebrate the welcome of Spring, I thought it would a neat idea to launch AVP’s first official Facebook Fan Page contest.

To participate you simply need to be AVP’s Fan on Facebook and answer the following question on the Fan Page Wall:

Do you practice Spring cleaning in your business? If so, what do you do? If you don’t, why not?

Answers could be anything from — Yes, I do practice spring cleaning — I go through a year’s worth of email and archive the ones I no longer need (if you are a VA … then this task alone may take months… yikes!).

Or: No, I don’t practice spring cleaning … ever. I hate cleaning… period.

Or:  I am super organized, yay me! (and if this IS your answer, please contact me … I may have some work for you ;) ).

The point being…  there isn’t a wrong answer here… simply participate on AVP’s Facebook Fan Page and be entered into a drawing to win one of two super cool books.

Because Spring is a time of new growth, the two book choices are:

The Happiness Project: Or, Why I Spent a Year Trying to Sing in the Morning, Clean My Closets, Fight Right, Read Aristotle, and Generally Have More Fun

by Gretchen Rubin

Linchpin: Are You Indispensable?
by Seth Godin

The winner gets to pick which book they want.  So, head on over to the AVP Facebook Fan Page and share your thoughts about Spring cleaning.

The contest ends on March 31st.
