Can you spot the BIG PROBLEM with this opt-in offer?<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It seems like a pretty sweet deal.
\nIt\u2019s a contest, and people love contests (free stuff!)…
\nIt has a cool prize (iPad!)…
\nSo what\u2019s the big problem, then?
\nHere\u2019s a hint…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cYou may get a lot of entries by giving away an iPad,\u201d says Travis Ketchum, founder of Contest Domination<\/a>. \u201cThe problem is that an iPad does nothing to prequalify that potential contestant. If you’re a real estate agent, giving away an iPad doesn’t do anything for you. It\u2019s no indication that someone may want to move in the next six months.\u201d<\/p>\n

So what typically happens is that you spend $300-$800 on the prize, you get a TON of entries (because, hey, free iPad!), and then your sales? Flatlining…<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’ve seen people that only get a few hundred entries absolutely destroy the results from people who get tens of thousands of entries,\u201d says Travis.<\/b><\/p>\n

So…you can go with door #1: spend a lot, get a crazy number of entries, and then….?<\/i><\/p>\n

(Cue the crickets…)<\/p>\n

OR, you can choose door #2: a contest that brings in loads of ideal prospects you can then convert into customers.<\/b><\/p>\n

AND the best part about door #2, Travis\u2019 method? It\u2019ll make your contest go viral, expanding your reach to bring in EVEN MORE qualified prospects.<\/b><\/p>\n

So we brought Travis to Mixergy to show us his step-by-step plan for running a contest the right way.\u00a0In the full course<\/a>, you\u2019ll discover:<\/b><\/p>\n
