Accu-Chek Canada's "We've Got You" Campaign Launch

Last Spring I partnered with Accu-Chek Canada to promote their revolutionary new "stripless" blood glucose meter, the Accu-Chek Mobile (see here and here). This spring, I have joined forces with Accu-Chek Canada again to help promote their latest diabetes campaign, entitled "We've Got You," which launched March 12th.

"We've Got You" is an initiative the company launched to bring attention to their Circle+ program for Canadians who use insulin. By simply asking their pharmacist for a Circle+ card and then activating the card via mail, Accu-Chek's website, or a toll free 1-800 number, Canadian insulin users can save up to $7 on every box of Accu-Chek strips or cassettes. Cardholders also receive helpful e-newsletters, have access to online tools, and be eligible for contests and giveaways, such as the insulin mini-fridge currently being offered. For more information about the Circle+ program, watch the brief video here.

Accu-Chek understands that living with diabetes is anything but easy. They also know that supporters, such as parents, spouses, siblings, friends, and caregivers, are an essential part of successful diabetes care. Accu-Chek would like to say thank you, and "We've Got You," to all those supporters by offering them a chance to win one of 8 weekly draws for $200, or the grand prize of a $3500 getaway with their "Care to Win" contest. The idea is that the winners will use their $3500 getaway or $200 to show their supporters how thankful they are.

The contest is open to all Canadian residents who have reached age of majority in their province or territory. To enter, simply "Like" Accu-Chek Canada on Facebook and fill out the contest entry form. There is a limit of one entry per person, but if you invite friends to enter, you will receive one additional entry for each friend, up to a maximum of 10 additional entries.

Good luck and check back here for more information, including info about Accu-Chek's latest blood glucose meter, as well a contest from Blood, Sweat & Carbs in which I will be giving away a $200 prepaid credit card to one of my lucky readers!
