Follow me on:

Intuit has announced the Grand prize winner of their Just Start business startup idea contest. Alissa DeRouchie of Columbus, OH whose idea was to open a kid-friendly restaurant serving health conscious food that they are calling Cafe Play, has been named the winner of the Grand prize package, subject to Intuit's verification of the results.

About Home Business reader Carmin David was announced as a winner of one of the two First prizes awarded for second and third place in the voting, along with Daniel Garrido of Seattle, WA, who with his wife makes healthy dog treats, "tasty and wholesome dog treats with an Asian twist". They want to expand their line of products and their distribution channels and improve their packaging.

Congratulations, Carmin! Although you may not have won the Grand prize, you showed courage and determination in entering the contest and your idea obviously had merit or you wouldn't have made it this far. Best wishes for good health and your future business success!
