Our name is Sweeps, and we run contests and sweepstakes. But what’s the difference?
When you enter a sweepstakes, you are put in a pool of
entries that has the potential to be selected as a winner. Every sweepstakes
winner is randomly selected.
Contests are different; they are based on skill and content,
and the finalists are chosen by our members. Our contests can either have catalog creations, posting a photo, caption a photo of our choosing and other
new options coming soon. The content is based on the criteria listed in the official
rules. Members “vote” for their favorites and this creates our pool of
finalists. Our panel of judges then choose the winner from the finalists, based
on the quality of the content and the effort put into the entry.
So in essence, sweepstakes winners are chosen randomly, contests are chosen based on skill and the quality of the content, but both are part of Sweeps.

I wish to win appliances and things for a home makeover
ReplyDeleteThat's great, Michelle! We have a Pick A Prize sweepstakes running right now. You simply make a catalog and add five things to the catalog that are each worth $300-350. The winner will win one of those products from their catalog.
DeleteThis could be a nice way to choose a few things you would want to add to your home. Here's the link if you haven't played yet: http://syw.co/1nTeiOI
