If you’ve been entering online sweepstakes for a while, chances are you’re receiving many new emails every day. Read on to know how you can manage sweepstakes emails, without getting overwhelmed.
Keeping your email account organized is important
Sweepstakes emails are important, because, besides the newsletters, you may have also received win notifications. In an ideal world, win notifications would be extremely clear and easy to spot with just a quick scan of your emails, but that is seldom the case.
Usually, spotting a prize notification among all your other sweepstakes emails is not the easiest of tasks, which is why it is important to scan through all the emails you receive and, additionally, check your spam folder as well.
But dredging through dozens of emails is not fun for most people, which is why it’s important that you take the necessary steps to make sure your email account is manageable. The best way to do this is by being proactive about the emails you receive. Ideally, you should make sure to check your emails as soon as you receive them. This keeps them from accumulating and becoming a hassle to go through.
Why you should not unsubscribe from sweepstakes emails
While it may seem tempting to unsubscribe from sweepstakes newsletters, here are a few reasons why we don’t recommend it.
1. The sweepstakes is still active: Some sponsors choose their winners from among people who are still subscribed to their newsletters, or the only way they send a prize notification is via their email newsletter. Either way, if you unsubscribe, you are missing out on your chance to win the sweepstakes.
2. The content could be interesting: If you go through a sweepstakes newsletter and find that you enjoy the content, that is reason enough to stay subscribed. Remember that sweepstakes newsletters often contain valuable coupons, helpful information, and special offers, which make them worth going through.
