I’m thinking about holding a contest
Jun 26th, 2008 by Kim
Lately as I’ve been surfing many different types of blogs I have been coming across a lot of cool contests. So this got me to thinking about possibly holding a small contest of my own. It wouldn’t be very big as it would just be a test to see how this may work out, but I would like it to be fun. But, I’m seriously clueless on how to about doing it.
So I have some questions for all you contest holders out there. Do you supply your prizes or do you find sponsors to help you out? If you use sponsors, how do you find them? How long would you run your contest for, and to get the most participation out of your contest, what requirements do you ask for people to gain entries.
I’d like to thank you for any and all responses in my quest. And maybe soon I’ll be hosting a contest of my very own.
I love contests! Seeing as how I’m here everyday now, I’ll be checking back for it.
I’ve been wondering the answers to those questions too, so I’d be interested in finding out the answers!

I’ve held a few contests, mostly for my customers, and we have a company wide one going on now.
But I’m planning a bigger contest in July, for everyone who visits my blog or website. As for prizes, I usually use my own products as I see the contests as a marketing tool to get word out there about my business.
I never thought of obtaining sponsors for the prizes. Looking forward to seeing what you choose to do
I’ve been thinking of doing a contest too. I thought I might give away something I’ve made. You should consider a piece of your jewelry as a prize! (hint, hint!)
I am holding my first contest. I did supply the prize but would love to know how to get someone to sponsor a prize…

If you are interested in, I would be happy to support your contest with some small prizes ( EC credits, 125×125 spot on my blog, a review…). Just email me for more details.
