Winning contests and sweepstakes isn’t just luck. Ask the ‘sweepers.’

From The Article:

You’ve heard of making your own luck. What if I told you you could do just that and start winning contests and sweepstakes regularly? That’s exactly what “sweepers” do. Sweepers are people who enter contests and sweepstakes as a hobby. They make their own luck by entering a lot. Volume is the key.

So how much time should you spend entering contests to win such amazing prizes? “I recommend spending one to two hours a day entering contests and sweepstakes,” Wilman said. “That’s enough to win plenty, but not so much you cut into work, family time and other obligations.” In those couple of hours a day, Wilman estimates she submits about 36,000 entries a year and wins about 1 percent of them. “It truly is a numbers game,” she said. “You can’t win if you don’t enter. And the more you enter, the more chances you have to win.”

1) Use websites like Sweepstakes Advantage and Sweepstakes Fanatics, which list legitimate giveaways and sort them by entry frequency and prize type.

2) Subscribe to newsletters such as Sweepsheet and I Win Contests, for similar information.

3) Use auto-complete software. Some Web browsers, including Chrome and Firefox, store your name and address and help you fill out forms with a single click. Or try Roboform,

Here are some techniques Sweepers use to improve their chances of winning:

• Crinkled paper: If it’s a paper drawing, crinkle your entry slip or fold it like an accordion to make it easier to grab.

• Colorful envelopes: If it’s an envelope drawing, send in large, colorful envelopes.

• Short entry periods: Choose contests with short entry periods, because fewer people are likely to enter.

• Entry limitations: Go for sweepstakes with lots of limitations on your location, age, etc., for the same reason.

• Many prizes: Select contests with great second and third place prizes, so that if you don’t win the grand prize, you still have a chance of winning something good.• Good prizes: Focus your efforts on contests with truly valuable prizes or prizes that are meaningful to you.
