RIDGID Announces Video Contest Winner
Congratulations to Darren Jones, who best displayed how
he builds his reputations with RIDGID tools and won the manufacturer’s contest.
RIDGID announced the grand-prize winner of its “How I Build My Reputation With RIDGID Tools” online video contest during its RIDGID Roundup Customer Event in Elyria, Ohio, earlier this month. The winner, RIDGID Forum member Darren Jones, of Brandenburg, Ky., was chosen through TeamRIDGID member voting, and received $2,500 in RIDGID tools of his choice.
The contest, which ran from December 2007 to April 30, 2008, invited TeamRIDGID members to record and post an original one- to three-minute video illustrating how they build their reputation with RIDGID tools. RIDGID chose five finalist videos, which were posted on the TeamRIDGID website for member voting. Videos were judged based on persuasiveness, creativity and entertainment value. All five finalists received an all-expense paid trip to attend the RIDGID Roundup Customer Event, where the announcement was made.
