We over here at San Francisco don’t like to brag about how amazing we are, but have you seen our amazing sponsors lately?  Wow!  Bing.com, Tap11, Speck, EyeFi, Omni, Baseball Beauties, SFTravel and more! Wow! Just Wow!

However, that’s not really the point - we would like to issue a challenge to all other Twestival Cities. The challenge you ask?

Let’s see who can raise the most money before March 25!

By going to http://bit.ly/twcompare You can see compare your city with other cities, including San Francisco’s to see how much money they’ve raised compared to your city.

Right now, the US is leading just a little over the UK, and San Francisco is leading over Phoenix.

Show us what you guys can bring in!  Remember, its all for @Concern - the more we raise the more we help end poverty!

Let the challenge begin!

The first people through the @TwestivalSF doors will be receiving a tote bag from BaseballBeauties! The bag will be filled with lots of amazing goodies that you won’t want to miss out on!

Want to see how we’re doing compared to other cities around the world?  Compare San Francisco to your city, and let the games begin!  http://twestival.com/api/stats-compare

This book and all that’s in it, was written with passion and dedication over the last year to address the issues that have now become paramount to the success of social media within businesses and industries of all shapes and sizes.
