Not positive how to answer 25 word or less questions? Regularly the judges are looking for the most creative answer, so here are some ideas of how to get started and gain the Sweepstake Advantage:

One. Use humor

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

I need a new automobile
I’m an underemployed actor,
It’s hard getting to auditions
On my rusty old tractor.

2. Poetry

It doesn’t matter if you were no good at poetry in high school. Making a simple poem is easy, especially with the internet sites available today to help find rhyming words, which are sureto gain you a Sweepstake Advantage. These are some examples demonstrating how you might use poetry to answer the query, “Tell us in twenty-five words or less why you would like to win the holiday”

youngsters are driving me insane,
Work is making me bored,
The perfect solution to my problems?
An amazing vacation abroad.

Or you could try an acrostic poem:

H having fun
O Overseas break
L Lazing by the swimming pool
I Island paradise
D Dream’s come true
An amazing 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 festival, chances are a funny answer will have a larger chance of success than alternativeentries. Never forget it’s the Sweepstake Advantage you want to get.

And Never forget that the judges are human, so what appeals to one may not appeal to another. The best strategyin achieving the Sweepstake Advantage is to try a spread of different answers for different competitions and to keep practising by entering as many competitions as possible.
