Praful is RIGHT ON TARGET. As a sponsor of the Spring/Summer and November Contests it brought a heavy load of member participation...and additional points just for following the rules and writing a post. I usually have a positive business/relationship challenge for these contests and have two components but they REALLY bring the best part of ActiveRain. Quality content, engaging with others and connecting!
