- Start to sell in advance. Tease. Entice. Don’t just tell me something is “coming soon.” Take a lesson from movie and TV show trailers and get me interested by revealing what’s in it for me.
- Launch. Make a major event of the the day of unveiling.
- Fertilize it. Remind listeners often with new, intriguing updates. Make sure that new listeners that were attracted by the buzz of the event also know all the things they need to fully participate. Do this for the life of the promotion.
- Add excitement. Embellish continually during the life of the promotion by adding new prizes, bonus days, repeating earlier clues, new ways to win.
- Keep tension high by keeping the promo announcements intense.
- Memory. After it’s over, summarize the event. Thank listeners who participated and sponsors, make use of “winner audio,” but if you do that make sure that you have multiple versions including what it sounded like in replay of when they won, what it sounded like when they claimed their prize, later talking about how they used it, etc.
