Your participants may be thinking that the chances of winning a contest or promotion is 1 in a 1,000,000.

However, what if we said that the odds of having a winner are greater than your fans think? The odds of winning are dependent upon several factors and not just luck. Follow our tips below to help understand how you can beat the odds:

1. Understand the odds of the game in your price point.
Understand that your policy amount also plays a part. Your policy covers how many guests you will have at your event, the number of attempts covered, size of the prize and the duration of the sweepstakes. If you are willing to dish out more money for a bigger number of attempts, attendees and prize value, then your contestants will be more likely to win!

2. Increase the value, increase excitement!
By increasing the prize value, it increases your contestants motivation. Your fans are more probable to give it their all knowing that they are competing for a cash prize of $1,000,000 over $1,000.

3. Pick a game that your fans are familiar with.
Your fans are more like to win if they are partaking in an event that they know and enjoy. If you’re hosting a football event, chances are, your contestants are not going to be interested in a golf related contest.

4. Follow the rules!
At IPG, we try our best to make all of our games user friendly. Read the rules carefully and follow them. You can’t expect to win if you don’t play by the rules. Go through the contest rules with a fine-tooth comb. If you don’t follow the rules exactly, your entry will be disqualified.
