Meet Christine: A Winning Part Of PCHSearch&Win!

Posted at 12:38 am by: PCH Staff in Instant Win Prizes, PCHSearch&Win Updates | 7 Comments »

Did you know that PCHSearch&Win is growing in popularity every day? Maybe it’s because, unlike any other search engine, you get daily opportunities to win Instant Prizes and enter the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes. (Many of Publishers Clearing House millionaires got their winning entries at PCHSearch, after all!) Or maybe it’s because of Edwin, our irresistibly cute search owl mascot. (I love that little guy!)

We have a different theory: we think it’s because of our smart and savvy strategist, Christine, Manager of Product Development.

A Summa Cum Laude business graduate of Bucknell University, Christine came to PCH in February 2010 and immediately began working on ways to support the site’s mission to bring you “Info You Need and Prizes You Want.” Christine constantly strives to make the site easier, faster and more fun to use, with promotions and features you’ll really like. It’s a challenge she enjoys!

Christine wants to give you the best search experience possible, so she and her team are busy developing programs to reward our most valued searchers and coming up with prizes you want to win. In August 2011, they redesigned the desktop site and created a mobile version that allows searchers to enter the SuperPrize. “It’s exciting to bring PCHSearch&Win to more members across the country. Who wouldn’t want to win Instant prizes – maybe even a millionaire-making SuperPrize — simply by searching the Internet?”

Currently, Christine and her team are hard at work creating new features on both the desktop and mobile versions of PCHSearch. “Not all searchers realize they can use the site on their mobile device, so we’re trying to let them know. ”

Since searching and winning are big parts of PCHSearch&Win, we were wondering if Christine has ever traveled with the Prize Patrol to award a searcher the Big Check. “Yes, I did, in March 2010. The prize was $5,000.00, and it was thrilling because I had just started working here. The whole experience really got me excited about working here!”

When we asked Christine what she likes best about her job, she made us proud: “Working with such a reputable, amazing brand like Publishers Clearing House, working with a diverse group of people, and, best of all, knowing that PCHSearch truly makes REAL people happy winners! ” What could be better?

Want to help Christine make PCHSearch&Win as easy, winning and FUN as possible? Why not offer your suggestions in the comment space below?

Here’s hoping YOU become a winner of one of our fabulous Instant Prizes or maybe even the big PCH SuperPrize!

“Winning” Clean Air Solutions from PCHSearch!

April showers have brought May flowers, and folks are moving outdoors to enjoy a breath of clean, fresh air. Hey, maybe that’s why May is called Clean Air Month!

I wanted to learn more about clean air solutions, so I used PCHSearch&Win to gather some fast facts and fun ideas. And let me tell you…PCHSearch solutions are “winning” solutions!

Surfing PCHSearch&Win you’ll discover…

Every day you inhale over 20,000 times

and breathe about 35 pounds of air — about a pint a breath!

Sitting in a home or office all day, where heating and cooling systems balance temperature and humidity and filter pollution for you, it’s easy to take the air we breathe for granted. We tend to forget that the air is filled with all sorts of things that compromise our health and the health of the water, plants and animals we consume.

Surfing PCHSearch&Win you’ll discover…

Along with oxygen, you also breathe in a smog of chemical

and particulate pollution, including CO₂, ozone, dust and bio-organisms!

Short of holding your breath till your face turns blue, what can YOU do to protect yourself, your family and others from the unhealthy effects of air pollution? If this query sounds like a job for PCHSearch&Win, it is! Browsing around, I discovered some good clean air solutions (and running out to buy a gas mask isn’t one of them! Relax!).

Surfing PCHSearch&Win you’ll discover…

The air inside your home can be up to 10 times

more hazardous to your health than the air outside!

It’s called sick building syndrome, and its sources — tobacco smoke, mold and mildew, household products, and pesticides, to name a few — not only cause discomfort, but can result in diseases later in life. Some clean air solutions I found on PCHSearch&Win:

• Make sure your home is well ventilated
• Switch to organic household cleansers
• Keep dryer vents and air ducts clean

But what can you do about the air outside, for your loved ones and for all of us?

Surfing PCHSearch&Win you’ll discover…

Guides to what you can do to help reduce air pollution,

as well as Clean Air Month activities and events!

• Find alternate means of transportation.
• Share a ride, use mass transit, bike to work or school, and walk if you can.
• Buy a clean, low emission vehicle.
• Plant trees.
• Get involved! Organize a race for clean air, host an expo at your school, write your congressman to support clean air initiatives — “winning” solutions all!

Go to PCHSearch&Win and explore the many clean air solutions and ideas for kids, grown-ups and anyone who likes to breathe! While you’re at it, enter for your chance to win our $5,000.00 A Week for Life Sweepstakes. Talk about “winning” solutions…that would surely leave you breathing easier!

Happy Searching!

Danielle Lam Loves National Pet Week!

Hi everyone, it’s Danielle Lam of the Prize Patrol!  If you follow my Fan Page on Facebook, you probably already know that I love giving PCH fans a behind the scenes look into life at PCH Headquarters and even my life – especially my ADORABLE pets!

Speaking of pets, did YOU know that this week is National Pet Week? It’s true! The goals of National Pet Week are to promote responsible pet ownership, celebrate the human-animal bond, and promote public awareness of veterinary medicine. Being a passionate pet owner myself, I made sure to have my newest puppy Shelby spayed.  According to a result I found through using PCHSearch&Win, spaying your dog is better for your pet’s health and will directly reduce the number of dogs that are euthanized in shelters.

I have a feeling that many of you PCH fans are pet lovers just like me.  I have met many furry friends on my Prize Patrol travels to deliver BIG Checks to lucky Sweepstakes winners all over the country.  Jeff Jones and Jinji French had a house full of excited dogs barking away the day Jeff won $100,000 in October 2010.  The Jones’ pets were even caught playing around during their winning moment.  I was enthusiastically greeted by the adorable dogs of Lou and Ann Lacerra the day they won the $10,000 Thanksgiving prize in 2010. Karen Anderson a $1 Million winner from February 2011 also shares my love for animals and used her PCH winnings to get a Chihuahua she named Nicki. So many PCH Sweepstakes winners are pet lovers!

So if you have a pet, or are thinking of getting a pet in the future, what better time than National Pet Week? And what better time to head over to PCHSearch&Win to learn about responsible ownership: find training tips, local parks, and answers to pet related questions because it’s important to stay informed as a pet owner.  At PCHSearch&Win you can find whatever you want – AND at the same time, you get a daily entry into the PCH Sweepstakes! It doesn’t get better than that, right? I wish you all the best of luck … and of course, to all the pet lovers like me, a very happy National Pet Week!

How Edwin of PCHSearch&Win was “Hatched!”

Hello, Searchers!

It’s me, Edwin, the PCHSearch&Win Owl! You’ve probably seen me hanging around the PCHSearch&Win site. I’m the one with the great tips on the PCHSearch&Win Dos and Don’ts page, and sometimes I even catch a ride in the PCHSearch&Win emails to bring you some Fun Facts! I know, I know, I have a dream job!

I just LOVE being the mascot for PCHSearch&Win ― the only and very popular Search Engine with PCH power where you could win instantly AND get a daily entry for a Publishers Clearing House SuperPrize in the Online Sweepstakes. Did you ever wonder how I got this dream job? Well, it all started because the PCHSearch&Win team wanted to give PCHSearch&Win Members something to smile about! So, Eve F., Christine D. and some of my other friends called a meeting to select a PCHSearch&Win mascot. But the truth is, if things had gone differently, I wouldn’t be around to tell you this story. Rumor has it that they narrowed it down to me and a cheetah. Can you imagine???

Well, cheetahs ARE fast and popular search engine PCHSearch&Win does give you FAST search results. But, ultimately everyone agreed that I’m the perfect mascot for PCHSearch&Win because I’m WISE and PCHSearch&Win helps you find the information and websites you need. (Not to mention, I’m extremely witty and adorable )

Speaking of adorable, I owe my loveable physique to the Senior Web designer at PCHSearch&Win.  He worked hard to give me that sweet, wide-eyed look that keeps the ladies swooning. And have you ever wondered how I always seem to have just the right outfit for every occasion? My friends on the creative team keep me dressed to impress! Here are just a few of my looks:

Me as a chef! What do you think I cooked up?

Don’t I look smart?

Look at me, I’m a winner!

Say ahhh…

I always get a “hoot” out of those outfits…don’t you?

There you have it, that’s how I was “hatched,” so to speak. And I’m not going anywhere, I have my dream job! I love PCHSearch&Win searchers…and I have a feeling they love me too. DO YOU?

Before I go, I want to remind you to BE WISE and keep searching every day on our popular search engine to enter to win the Online Sweepstakes — and go for a shot at $5,OOO.OO Every Week For Life on May 31st! I wonder who – who – who will win!

Fondly,

Edwin
PCHSearch&Win Mascot Extraordinaire

P.S. Guess what, I’ll soon have my very own game on the PCHSearch&Win Fan Page on Facebook. I’m so excited! Stay tuned for details!
