&lt;P&gt;For every US$1 you invest (up to US$400) in&amp;nbsp;one of these two&amp;nbsp;Ready-to-Go Campaign, receive US$2 in matching funds.&amp;nbsp;This means that for a $400 investment on your part, you can have a marketing budget of US$1,200 to help you:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Pull a prospect list of new contacts for mailings and telesales;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Send a customized postcard of business letter with your company logo and text;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Print flyers to pass out during your event;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Any and all of the above!&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Full details and official rules are available from either of the eligible campaigns: &lt;A href="http://www.mspartnerdirect.com/fsrs"&gt;http://www.mspartnerdirect.com/fsrs&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;(First Server, Right Server)&amp;nbsp;or &lt;A href="http://www.mspartnerdirect.com/secrel"&gt;http://www.mspartnerdirect.com/secrel&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;(Security and Reliability).&amp;nbsp; You will need to Sign In with Windows Live ID to access our Ready-to-Go Campaigns.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Cheers,&lt;/P&gt;
