Gaining The Sweepstake Advantage In Twentyfive Words Or Less

Not sure how to answer twenty-five word or less questions? Often the judges are searching for the most creative answer, so here are some ideas of how to get started and gain the Sweepstake Advantage:

1. Use humor

often judges are inundated with depressing answers on why somebody should win, for instance “My cat died, and the new car will help cheer me up”. To set yourself apart from the rest, try employing a funny answer. For example,

I need a new car
Iam an unwaged actor,
It’s hard getting to auditions
On my rusty old tractor.

two. Poetry

It doesn’t matter if you were no good at poetry in school. Creating an easy poem is easy, especially with the websites available today to assist in finding rhyming words, which are sureto gain you a Sweepstake Advantage. These are some examples illustrating how you could use poetry to reply to the question , “Tell us in 25 words or less why you would like to win the holiday”

youngsters are driving me insane,
Work is making me bored,
the only answer to my problems?
Afantastic holiday abroad.

Or you could try an acrostic poem:

H having a good time
O Overseas break
L Lazing by the pool
I Island Paradise
D Dream’s come true
An extraordinary food
Y tantalizing cocktails

It’s also important to remember who you are writing for. For instance, if the prize is tickets to a comedy holiday, chances are that a funny answer will have a bigger chance of success than otherentries. Don’t forget it’s the Sweepstake Advantage you want to achieve.

And Don’t forget that the judges are human, so what appeals to one may not appeal to another. The best planin achieving the Sweepstake Advantage is to try a selection of different answers for different contests and to keep practising by entering as many contests as possible.
