Focus on quality, not quantity<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It can be tempting to try and enter every single competition.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But doing so is a fast track to boredom. Winning a competition is a marathon, not a sprint. So it\u2019s important to pick ones that are going to give you good chances of winning and a decent return. I look for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>Competitions that match my interests<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>Look for creative or 25 words or less that typically get fewer entries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>Local competitions on radio or TV<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>Prizes that could easily be sold if I don\u2019t want them<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>Comps run by businesses rather than influencers\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You\u2019ll quickly get a taste of which competitions are worth entering and which are not.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sticking with those run by Australian businesses is generally a good idea as they have to meet certain legal requirements that will help keep you safer online and ensure a prize is paid out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. Save time finding free competitions<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t like spending hours every day hunting the internet for new competitions.

No more hunting around. It also lets you filter by prize and manage your entries, so you don\u2019t waste time entering the same comp twice (it\u2019s easy to forget once you get into it). It also lets you earn points, giving you more chances to win your own monthly prize draw.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7994758 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7994758\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.23.0 - 05-08-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/competitioncloud.com.au\/Account\/Register\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"297\" src=\"https:\/\/competitioncloud.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Group-250.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-997\" alt=\"\" sizes=\"100vw\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b7832f5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7b7832f5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<h2><strong>3.

Be persistent<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Taking a slow and steady approach is key to long-term success.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>I tend to enter fewer competitions but spend more time finding them. I\u2019ll usually spend an hour a day finding and entering around 10-20 competitions. I set reminders to form a regular comping routine, using Google calendar notifications, phone alarms, or post-it notes. I\u2019ll listen out for radio comps, do daily instant wins, weekly Google searches, or monthly checks of my favourite websites.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2><strong>5. Don\u2019t just go for the easy options<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>The majority of people who enter competitions prefer easy, straightforward comps that don\u2019t require much effort or creativity. However, these types of competitions offer a lower chance of winning because more people enter them. On the other hand, \u201ccreative or effort\u201d comps, such as tweeting a joke, sharing a photo on Instagram, commenting on a blog, making a purchase, doing a quiz, or filming a video, are harder to enter, but they offer a much higher chance of winning. In some cases, you may be the only entrant.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>To increase your chances of winning these types of comps, try to make your entry stand out. For photo and video comps, don\u2019t worry if your entry isn\u2019t perfect, as most winners are chosen randomly, and all valid entries have a chance of winning regardless of quality.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2><strong>6. Develop a prize list<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Entering every competition, you come across can quickly become overwhelming and take up a lot of time. To make your comping hobby more manageable, identify specific prizes you want to win and make a wishlist of them. This could include small prizes like vouchers and tickets or larger prizes like a holiday or a kitchen.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>By focusing on finding and entering competitions to win these specific prizes, you\u2019ll be able to make better use of your time and fit comping into your busy life.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Once you have your wish list, dedicate some time to hunting down those items each week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2><strong>7.

They can also be a source of support during a dry spell without any wins.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>You can also seek inspiration from some of the great comping bloggers who share their experiences and pro tips.
