LendingClub is a site that offers person to person lending so people can pay off their debts, or whatever they need, and get an average of 3% cheaper rates than going to the bank. It’s a pretty sweet deal, but an even better one is the recent contest LendingClub put on.
The challenge was to create a video talking more about LendingClub and explain all the things people could use the service for and put it on Youtube. The original plan was to give $5000 to the most-watched video, but there turned out to be a 4-way tie.
The prize, along some additional goodies that were thrown in, was split amongst the following:
$3,000 Best Video Award – Chris Barrett: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G43bLni8Or4
$3,000 YouTube® Viewers Award – Steve Dinelli http://youtube.com/watch?v=S6RtyX47r_M
$1,500 Storyboard Award – Jonthan Reed

$500 Jury Prize – Share Ross

Congrats to all the winners and be sure to check out the videos, they’re pretty good!
