One Match Stick

Telana Simpson is running a project called One Matchstick and has recently joined forces with Springleap.com to challenge you in a brand new t-shirt design competition!

One Matchstick

One Matchstick was started by Telana in 2006. Her idea was to trade one matchstick as many times as possible by building value and eventually end up with offices which she will use for mentoring a start-up entrepreneurial enterprise.

So how far has Telana already traded her matchstick up? It went from a matchstick to a pen, eventually to some cash, which she traded for a hot-air balloon ride, her ninth and last trade was a party for 150 people!

Now Telana is looking for someone to trade 375 Springleap.com t-shirts with! Visit One Matchstick for more information.

As far as the brand new Springleap.com themed t-shirt design competition is concerned here’s what you have to do: Design the Official One Matchstick t-shirt!

You’re design must be submitted at Springleap.com by the 7th of September 2009 to stand a chance in being a part of Telana’s innovative project. Download the T-shirt Submission Pack from Springleap.com here to advise you further in designing.

The winning designer receives R5300 worth of prizes! Here’s what’s up for grabs:

R1000 cash to spend on BidorBuy (kindly sponsored by BidorBuy.co.za)
A Poken
A Swatch Disco Vibe Watch
A 2 hour Coaching Session with Telana
10 VIP Tickets to The Party in JHB
3 Springleap T-shirts

Important dates to diarise:

29th August – Submissions for designs open
7th September- Submissions for designs close
8th September – Voting starts
17th September – Voting ends

Telana even made a little video that you can watch to clear up any questions about the Springleap.com- One Matchstick themed competition.
