From the official contest page:
Create a Cyfe dashboard for a good cause
You understand the power of visualizing your data and sharing it with the people that matter. A well organized dashboard can motivate, inspire, and drive people to do amazing things.
We want to take that creativity and share it with our community. That’s why we’re running a contest to support the non-profit organization of your choice.
Over the month of May, we’re looking for the most impressive use of a Cyfe dashboard to visually communicate the data that matters to you, your business, or your community.
We are proud to announce that UpCity SVP of Product & Marketing Heidi Sullivan will serve as a judge in the contest. She’ll be joined by Jay Baer of Convince & Convert, John Jantsch of Duct Tape Marketing, Neal Polachek of Localogy, and Katelyn Sorensen of Traject.
Your dashboard entry will be judged on the following:
- Topic originality
- Visual appeal
- Ease of understanding
- Diversity of data sources
- Community impact
The prizes:
1st Place: $1000 in your or your business’s name to the cause of your choice and a 6 month free extension of your Cyfe plan
2nd Place: $500 in your or your business’s name to the cause of your choice
3rd Place: $500 in your or your business’s name to the cause of your choice
The dashboard submission deadline is May 31, so make sure to check out the contest page for the official rules. Good luck!
