Let's put it this way to be more specific: If a company is into providing services for people who are into e-business, what do you think is the best way or contest to promote it? :detective:

The main aim is to solicit testimonials from our previous and present clients as to how did our services worked best for them as well as their working relationship with out staff.

Smart idea, Bookworm-SEO, offering part of the service for free can be a nice contest model. One of my businesses is link building, and 3 prizes with free link package every month is a nice example.

So here's how it will go: Our clients will be asked to write a testimonial about us. For example, how did we help their business, how did our agent got things so well for them, etc. Whoever will be chosen to hav the best testimonial will win a free webmastering services for a week.

How's that?

Depends how much work you can get done in a week. I'd get more specific, offering details on exactly what you'd offer in terms of services. ex.:

1-graphic design: alternate logos
2- clean up home page code
etc.

also, offering it for the best testimonial will get you testimonials that are over the top which no one will believe. 'he redesigned everything and milked the cows!"

you can modify it slightly and still get free publicity. make the contest for the most helpful review of your services. helpful to you, in that what's good is praised, so you don't spend time fiddling with it and changing it, and what's bad/missing is criticized, with steps suggested to improve. make sure the review includes a link.

also, offer prizes to more than just first place, and consider offering prizes to first place for monthly feedback/best client.

That seems like a worthwhile contest. How hard are you advertising it?
