This alcohol beverage distributor assists many of their clients run text-to-win mobile sweepstakes for their brands

We’re working again this year with the Republic National Distribution Company,  who are distributors of alcohol beverage brands. They have asked us to assist in three different text-to-win mobile sweepstakes for their clients so far this year. Here’s an overview of each one.

We started off 2020 with The Botanist Ginuary Sweepstakes  which is sponsored by Remy Cointreau USA and is running January 1 till the end of February. Participants are invited to text the keyword Botanist to the short code 65047 where they will receive a text message back with a link to a form that they need to fill out and submit to receive an entry. They may also directly visit the online form located at https://go.sweeppea.com/BOTANIST to receive an entry. At the end of the sweepstakes period we will draw 15 Grand Prize Winners who will each receive a Home Bartending Kit valued at $100.

Next we launched The National Margarita Day Sweepstakes, also sponsored by Remy Cointreau USA ,which kicked off on January 15 and runs till March 15. Participants text the keyword Cointreau to the shortcode 65047 or enter directly online at https://go.sweeppea.com/Cointreau and follow the same instructions as in the Botanist Sweepstakes. At the end of this sweepstakes will will draw 20 Grand Prize Winners who each receive a Margarita kit that includes a Shaker, Jigger, Lime Squeezer, Tank Top, Tee-shirt, Temporary Tattoos, Coasters, Photo Backdrop, Photo Props, Inflatable Margarita and Inflatable Bottle all valued at $250.

The last sweepstakes running now is The Born Bayou Sweepstakes sponsored by The Stoli Group USA which started on February 20 and runs till the end of March. Here participants are invited to text the keyword BAYOU to the shortcode 65047 or enter directly online at https://go.sweeppea.com/Bayou and follow the same instructions as in the other two sweepstakes. At the end of this sweepstakes we will also draw 15 Grand Prize Winners who will each receive craw fish pot and a retailer gift card for a total prize value of $586 each.

All three brands produced in-store point-of-sale materials to promote their sweepstakes in retail locations. Setting up a text-to-win sweepstakes is a great way to encourage in-store displays. All alcohol beverage brands are required by law to confirm participants are 21 years of age or older at the time of sweepstakes entry. So by providing the additional form we can asked for their date-of-birth in order to comply with the law, along with other data such as name, email address and also mailing address which makes it easy to ship the prizes direct to the winners.

We hope to continue to assist this client with more of these text-to-win sweepstakes as the year moves on. If you are interested in running one please contact me.
