Amped Up Giveaway Summer Sweepstakes from St. Pete/Clearwater
Hope everyone had a great 4th of July Holiday. We realize that many people have taken this week as vacation to add on to the holiday and may be at the beach or the lake. So here is another summer getaway promotion that we’re administering that I thought I’d share that is a great example of how to promote your destination or brand. And, it just may give you ideas on where to vacation next.
Visit St. Pete Clearwater is running The Amped Up Giveaway – Summer Sweepstakes which ties directly into their Amped Up summer theme. They are promoting their destination with this “Live Amplified in St. Pete/Clearwater” video that includes their theme song “Solar Power”. You can view the video here on YouTube.
The sweepstakes is offering a chance to win one of 4 monthly “Amped Up” vacation packages which started on June 1 and runs till the end of September.
