Your help is needed today and, really, all week. You’re thinking, “Seriously? It’s a holiday week.” I know. I know. But if you’ve been keeping up with my blog, you know that I attended Startup Weekend South Bend and that my idea has made it all the way to this Global Startup Battle (GSB). You’re thinking, “What is GSB? And why do I care?” Well, GSB (http://globalstartupbattle.org/) is a competition “in an entrepreneurial battle of epic proportions.” Each city that hosted a startup weekend (approx. 120 all over the world) is battling for bragging rights (and other prizes). We, as in my amazing ConnectHelp team, just want our idea to gain validation by receiving thousands and thousands of votes. We are also excited by the opportunity to raise awareness of our website and idea. We want ConnectHelp to reach people all over the globe. But we will need your support to get there. In the meantime, could you please help us by:

1. Taking time to vote today and everyday (or as many days as you can remember)
2. Share the link with your friends on Facebook and ask them to vote as well
3. Ask your friends to share it with at least 10 of their friends

Here’s how you vote:

1. Go to: http://bit.ly/GlobalStartupBattle (you might be able to get directly to my video here: http://bit.ly/RBfOVg)
2. Click on “view entries” (you might need to LIKE this page before you can continue)
3. Search for ConnectHelp (one word)
4. Click the vote button
