Why run a Sweepstakes promotion?
Sweepstakes can help create awareness and excitement around a brand or company and help to reach the desired objectives by acting as an overlay to an integrated program or by itself. Proper DreamSweepstakes administration can begin with the sponsor’s sales force and continue through the entire trade and distribution pipeline, right on to the ultimate consumer or end-user. An effective DreamSweepstakes will not only offer the chance to win great prizes, but also work on building the brand. Here are the top benefits in running a Sweepstakes:

Themed Sweepstakes and prizes often are developed to reinforce and build the sponsor’s brand and/or the product/service's features and benefits. Prizes that leverage an existing sponsorship, such as sporting event tickets, help build the brand and deliver prizes that the average consumer can buy on their own.
