Contests: Did You Know…Games Spending is Up?

  • Marketers were expected to drop about $1.86 billion on games, contests and sweepstakes last year, compared to $1.80 billion in 2005, according to Veronis Suhler.
  • The third screen is the new playing field, as more marketers go mobile with games.
  • Sweepstakes and contests calling for user-generated content are still in demand.
  • The more ways a consumer has to enter a contest, the higher the response.
