I haven't really combined having a contest that incorporates getting input from customers. Guess I need to take it to the next level and combine these efforts. Thanks for the great idea.

There is no better way to market than involving the customer. By involving the customer in the process this is great PR and will enable the business word to expand. This is tremendous.

For example we often do a list post. It is a win for us, since we are the source of the post. It is a win for people who volunteer the material since it increases their exposure, and it is a win for the reader since they get great information. So... try a list post, or try anything else where you can structure a win-win-win and you will get a lot of people supporting you. We do. - Mike @Bill – Structure win-win-wins.

We are a start-up and need to get word out far and wide. At the same time that we would like to run a national email campaign we don't have the resources to purchase a targeted list. Is there another way to get an opt-in list going? We've tried all of the usual methods but with no luck. Great Mike but what about beyond the community.

I have to agree that getting the community involved and building a relationship in your 'backyard' is what provides a strong foundation. Word of mouth advertising is so powerful!
