Gather round team, we’ve got a heck of a contest to tell you about. For their sweepstakes “Swing Into Spring“, The Day (New London, CT) teamed up with minor league baseball team Connecticut Tigers and Klingerman Travel, Inc. to offer 3 incredible prizes any baseball buff would be ecstatic to win. Grand prize is an all expense paid trip for 4 to spring training – whoo hoo! Not only does this contest have ideal sponsors and scream-worthy prizes, The Day hit a promotional homerun by using their masthead to advertise the contest. See below.
If you’re looking for a way to incorporate your local car dealership with your next UPICKEM contest, look no further! The San Diego Union-Tribune ran a sweepstakes for local Honda owners in which they win a makeover valued at $2,000 from one of 9 local dealerships who participated in the contest. To make a good contest even better, a heartfelt video of one of the winners receiving her Honda makeover is posted on the contest’s welcome page. What a fantastic idea to run around the holidays.
The reader interaction on this giveaway contest from Boys’ Life Magazine (Irving, TX) is fantastic. Each day, readers search for “Pedro” (see image above) on the Boys’ Life website – he will have a number on his shirt. Next, they enter the number on his shirt to win a brand new KINECT from XBOX360. So simple, so fun.
WPRO-FM (Riverside, RI) sure knows how to celebrate the holiday season with its listeners – by offering them the chance to win a $10,000 shopping spree! Each hopeful shopper enters the big giveaway to get the chance to “shop like a popstar” – the contest is up to nearly 1,500 entries (and counting!). Another great feature of the contest is the personalization of the entries with a photo and favorite store list.
