In celebration of reaching our 100,000 member milestone in the coming week or so (we're less than 500 away as of writing this), we're going to be giving away thousands of dollars in prizes to our users and advocates!

Win one of 20 Home Depot gift cards, 10 free audio downloads from the 2012 BiggerPockets Investor Summit or 5 free tickets to the 2013 BiggerPockets Real Estate Investing Summit, by simply doing what you do best:

ACTIVELY ENGAGE ON THE BIGGERPOCKETS COMMUNITY!

Starting today, a select group of panelists will be observing member activity within the BiggerPockets community. The panel will be looking for quality comments on BiggerPockets blog articles, helpful contributions within the BiggerPockets forums and high caliber posts from BiggerPockets members like you.

In addition to the above criteria, to qualify, all participants MUST have an uploaded avatar photo and a completed personal profile. For the next 3 weeks, and ending September 21, 2012, the panel will be selecting members and will award prizes to those who we feel best represent BiggerPockets -- users who give of their time and energy to participate actively, add value to their peers, and regularly participate on our platform.

So, if you haven’t shared with the BP community in a while, now is your time to jump in. Whether you're helping other new members, answering questions that haven't been answered yet, sharing your thoughts and experiences on a topic, or if you're just getting active in a random conversation, participating on BiggerPockets is without a doubt, a great way to help your business.

What are you waiting for? Jump in and start engaging!

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

Do You Have a Success Story from Your Use of BiggerPockets?

We're going to be giving away additional Home Depot gift cards to random users who share their success stories on our Success Stories forum. Simply post in detail your story between now and September 21, 2012 and you'll have a shot at landing one of the many cards we're going to make available.

You'll also be up for consideration if you post your testimonial on your own blog; just let us know about it!

THAT'S NOT ALL!

We're also reserving prizes for those users who help promote BiggerPockets on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google+, and on their own blog sites. If you do, be sure to @BiggerPockets on those networks so we know about the post, and if you write on your own site, just let us know.

Whether you share our content or promote our site, you'll have a shot at prizes. We love site reviews and are happy to point people to them! (good for you and your traffic)
