Be the next Gone Google ad
October 12, 2010
A little over a year ago, we began the "
Go Google" campaign
with just a single billboard in four U.S. cities. In the past year, we've grown from two to three million businesses and more than 30 million users on Google Apps; through the campaign, thousands have shared their Gone Google stories via
tweets
,
photos
and submissions to our
community map
. We've heard from companies across the country and around the world; from large enterprises such as
Konica Minolta
and leading global food retailer
Ahold
, to small businesses like
Bowery Lane Bicycles
in New York and
Luna & Larry's Coconut Bliss
in Oregon, we're excited to hear how Google Apps has helped your business increase productivity, reduce costs and innovate.
As we kick off the next wave of our global campaign this week in airports and train stations in 11 major cities in nine countries around the globe, we want to use this opportunity to invite the millions of companies and schools using Google Apps to tell us why your organization would like to be featured in our next global Gone Google ad campaign. For this contest, we'll pick up to five companies/schools in each of the following regions: the Americas, EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and Asia Pacific. The winners will be featured in an upcoming outdoor ad campaign in each region early next year.
To participate, tell us your organization's Gone Google story, and create a "sample ad" using our template:
We encourage you to be creative and have fun with your ad! (You may want to check out some of our previous ads for some
inspiration
.) Once you create your ad, be sure to publish and share it with us. (Bonus points for
tweeting it
with the #gonegoogle hashtag.) For complete
rules
and details, visit our
contest site
. We can't wait to see your ads, and look forwarding to putting your organization's name in lights!
And if you are still thinking about going Google, we encourage you to check out the
Go Google cloud calculator
to learn more about the benefits of switching to Google Apps.
