KickoffLabs (http://www.kickofflabs.com) is all about generating leads, so we use it for quite a few tasks related to our business.
One thing as a business we are trying to do more of this year is put ourselves in our customers position. This was a big reason I started BootStrapped Weekly (http://bootstrappedweekly.com). I wanted to take a step back and start fresh with no existing leads, no inbound links, and no existing market.
It has certainly opened my eyes to new ways we can help our customers be more successful.

Thanks! I heard "your best email address" on a podcast (FatBurningMan). I thought it was a great suggestion. However, the term didn't sit well with my proof reader (wife). I think you are correct that it is probably a phrase that should only be used in the proper context/market.

Background music of some kind is on the short list. We wanted to get it out there and see what it does for conversions as is (we are testing it against an image on our home page. we will probably blog those results as well).

Another big fan of DNSimple here. Been with them for over a month and the services and support have been great.
Even more impressive is we have directed a couple very non-technical customers to them and they all have been able to get up and running in no time.
I am one of the founders of KickoffLabs.
Liking on Facebook is just one of the ways to enter. However, after re-reading the content I can see how that is not very clear.
You can also enter with just an email and you are free to share the link in more traditional methods.
I get where you are coming from on liking. I rarely do this myself, but it is an important option for many of our customers and one of the goals of the contest was to help showcase our product.
Thanks for the feedback. -Scott
