Most of you know by now, I love my coffee. I can’t start my day without one. On rare occasions that I do, it’s going to be a drag. A long one. So I always make it to a point to enjoy my favorite blend. Want to know what else I enjoy? Supporting brands with a great cause – just like Folgers! Are you familiar with their iconic ❝ Best Part of Wakin’ Up ❞ jingle? They’re inviting any and all aspiring musicians to join Folgers Jingle Contest and create their own version and stand a chance to win the grand prize of $25,000! 💕 On top of that, you will also get a mentoring session with Grammy-nominated country music artist Chris Young – you definitely wouldn’t want to miss this!
Across our generation, Folgers Jingle has been heard, remembered and has become a piece of pop culture. Now it’s your turn to embrace the well-known tune and make it your own! Check out the details below to see the mechanics of this contest:
- » Start by creating a video of your best version of the jingle and submit it on Folgers website: folgerscoffee.com from January 30th through February 27th. The version you created of the Jingle must include the complete melody as well as the full lyrics ❝ The Best Part of Wakin’ Up is Folgers in Your Cup ❞.
- » Starting February 27th until March 19th there will be 5 semi-finalists chosen, and each will have a mentor session with Chris Young before the online vote.
- » From March 27th all the way up to April 24th, fans across the country will get the opportunity to vote daily for their favorite jingle. Each vote automatically enters the participant (which is YOU) to win prizes up to $10,000.
- » Finally, in May there will be one winner selected to win the grand prize of $25,000!
Isn’t that amazing? How I wish I am in the music industry or at least have some musical skills so I can take part! Oh well. The least I can do is share about this amazing news right? Wishing you all the best! xx
