The Build Your Allvoices Brand Incentive Program is a new and exciting online initiative to reward contributors from all over the world with cash incentives for building a strong brand of their own on Allvoices by sharing on-the-ground news and opinion, gaining influence and achieving a global reach. Our incentive program is designed to reward writers, journalists, bloggers, students, photographers, video makers and citizen reporters who use the Allvoices platform to build a personal or professional brand including a completed profile, a creative works portfolio and a global fan base by connecting with existing users, inviting others to join and promoting their contributions outside of Allvoices.

Contributors who participate between April 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009 can earn cash when they achieve status milestones depending on the quality, strength and reach of their brand. The Allvoices intelligent system and easy-to-use features enable contributors to build a personal brand and readership base by building their profile page and multimedia portfolio of reports and contributions. Our platform and features also give contributors unparalleled global reach, social networking and sharing capabilities, and control over their contributions and the evolution of their brand.
