and winning prizes. Participation is free, fun, and rewarding.

worth of gift certificates in "Name the Bar Game" brand promotion.
"I believe there is high value in helping SMBs with marketing and
brand promotion, and Chitsie provides the platform to do so
effectively," says Eric Sytwu of Presidio Ventures.
In the two weeks that Chitsie has been around, it has logged visitors
from 39 countries and 268 cities across the world, with United States
topping the list.
"Like Groupon has taken the local advertising scene by storm, we hope
to disrupt traditional marketing with Chitsie," says Founder, Chitra
Rakesh. "Initially, I did not have the guts," confesses
first-time-entrepreneur.
Jill Salzman of The Founding Moms says, "It's a brilliant concept...
I'm pretty confident that

will thrive in the digital marketing arena."
The Founding Moms is running a "Mom Entrepreneur Challenge," on
Chitsie, as they gear to launch The Founding Moms Community on June 1.
Membership to the community and other cool prizes can be won.
"Winning a drawing or a sweepskates is great but winning on the basis
of merit is even better," says Rakesh.
