Want to start winning more sweepstakes? Here are a few mistakes you’ve got to avoid to increase your chances of winning! Read on to know what they are.
Not checking the rules
Think about all the times you purchased movies, software, and games - did you ever read the rules or the terms and conditions? Of course not! However, when it comes to online sweepstakes, reading the rules can help ensure your entry actually makes its way to the end. Did you know that many pro sweepstakes enthusiasts say that about a quarter of entries are not considered for the final count because they violate the rules?
Not creating a new email for sweepstakes
Unfortunately, too many novice sweepers make this mistake. When you enter sweepstakes every day with your personal or work email, you’ll get a lot of sweepstakes-related emails. This means you’ll have to fish harder to find that email you got about a job offer or to RSVP to your friend’s wedding. To avoid this, just create a new email solely meant for your sweepstakes entries.
Skipping sweepstakes that have a survey or quiz
A common mistake that many novice sweepers make is skipping sweepstakes that require them to complete a survey. But, did you know that pro sweepers never skip such sweepstakes? Since many people skip these long-form sweepstakes, the people who do enter have a much better chance of winning. So, even if it takes you a few extra minutes, make sure to complete the survey or quiz and submit your entry.
Focussing only on national sweepstakes
A great way to increase your chances of winning is by entering local sweepstakes. Many people make the mistake of only entering national sweepstakes because they often offer better and bigger prizes - but since these sweepstakes get a lot of entries, your chances of winning go down. Since local sweepstakes receive fewer entries, you have a much better chance of winning them.
