Startacus Christmas Give Away! 12 days of prizes!

by Startacus Admin
As every self starter, startup or new business owner knows, counting the pennies and the pounds is pretty vital - and never more so than at Christmas time when there are all of those extra festive costs to deal with.
So, here at Startacus, we thought we’d do our bit to help the season of goodwill be a little less painful on the pocket and a little more fun into the bargain. How? Well we’re not doing it alone - we’ve enlisted the help of Startaclaus. And our timing couldn’t be better...
You see...#Startaclaus has lost his GPS (Gifts Presents Satellite) and so we’ve joined forces to help him hand out a few Crimbo pressies over the next couple of weeks - pressies that were destined for some of the hardest working self starters.
It’s all kicking off this Thursday and we’ll be handing out presents galore over the next 12 days - our very own 12 Days of Christmas if you like!
As you can imagine, the gifts and presents are all related to the theme of starting a business and if you check out the calendar below you’ll see all the fab people and companies who’ve been kind enough to provide them to ‘ol man #Startaclaus himself.
So how’s it all gonna work, you may be wondering?
Well, each day we’ll announce the latest #Startaclaus giveaway. All you need to do then is follow the instructions for that day and get involved - there’ll be 12 days and 12 gifts ‘n giveaways. Simples.
From Thursday onwards keep an eye on Startacus.net, follow Startacus on Twitter and check our posts on our Startacus Facebook page - you’ll get all the info on the prizes and what you’ve got to do to be in with a chance of winning.
We know many of you are really busy folk at this time of year too so might not get the chance to take part every day. Here’s a way though that you can still get involved - at this very moment:
Click on and tweet the Twitter message below and you’ll be automatically entered into 1 of the 12 giveaway days:

One more thing - on this occasion, only UK and Ireland based entries can be considered - that old sleigh ain’t what it used to be…
So that’s that then - festive fun and it’s free too! A big thanks from all at Startacus to all those kind spirited folk who’ve helped make this happen.
