In addition to these and other functions, Ecordia also provides a complete collateral and marketing material management system for the delivery of brochures, data sheets, and other corporate collateral through the website. It's a content management system designed for the marketing professional. "There are currently a number of entry-fee-based design contests," says Sean Jackson, president of Ecordia Technologies. "With those, you get a nice little prize and some recognition. We are taking that a step further by offering a cash prize for first place as well as a year of Ecordia service for first, second, and third place. We've made a contest that's worth winning - you get bragging rights you can deposit into the bank." The contest is open to U.S. residents and begins on February 17th with entry submission closing on March 15th. Final selection of the winners will be on March 22nd.
