We are looking for country managers around the world for the competition. The role of a manager is to publicize the contest in order to maximize the number of entries from his/her own country.
The country managers will receive a press release in English, which they can distribute to media, music makers and any other appropriate target group. It is expected that the involvement of the country managers would mean at least 10-20 hours’ work.
Country managers will be rewarded as follows:
Each country manager will receive 5-10% of the income from the telephoning of his/her country less the Value Added Tax and less the telephone operators’ expenses. As some payment methods will not reveal the country of origin of the voter, this voting income from these will be estimated as accurately and fairly as possible. We aim to recruite one country manager for every 30 million inhabitants, but in some countries one country manager could manage even more than this. The contract is a fixed term and lasts to the end of 2009. We hope that same country manager would continue in 2010 too. The probation period is 3 months.
In addition, the organizer of the contest will give to all country managers an official work certificate which would be valuable in any future CV. We would hope that a country manager will have good contacts with groups making music; it would be advantageous if they also had experience working with the media. A country manager may for example be someone studying marketing or media studies. Email a short application to contestium@gmail.com
