Full-Service Contest Management

Creating or running a contest can be made easy with the help of a contest administrator or digital promotions company. When it comes to sweepstakes and contest administration, a contest management company takes care of all the details so you don’t have to. A contest agency provides a full-service solution to digital promotions, covering all aspects of the promotion to support your marketing goals and ensure a successful launch.

Behind every successful digital promotion is a focus on three core areas: development, legal administration, and prize fulfillment.  The best contest company can utilize its expertise to fulfill all aspects of the promotion and deliver a seamless experience. 

There are three core components that make up a successful campaign. With the help of a contest administration company, you can ensure all aspects of your campaign are taken care of:

Contest Legal Administration, Judging, and Moderation

Contest laws and regulations are at the core of every promotion. A contest administrator can help you meet legal requirements and help assist in the authoring of official contest rules.

Unlike sweepstakes and instant win games where winners are chosen at random (i.e, games of chance) contest winners are selected via judging or voting. While voting is typically carried out by the public, judging and moderation is often performed by brands internally. Where contest administrators typically help is in initial rounds of judging and moderation, narrowing down the pool of eligible entries to a top 10 or top 20 list. From there, brands carry out the final round to ultimately select the winner(s) of the contest.

As a one-stop-shop for legal coverage, compliance, and rules administration, Realtime Media will help your brand navigate the complications of state-by-state legal requirements. We provide in-house legal support for contests, sweepstakes, and instant win games. Additionally, our moderation and judging teams can your brand narrow down and screen entries for compliance to the official rules.
