Promotional competitions as a strategic marketing weapon

Article Abstract:

A survey of companies which sponsor promotional competitions supports earlier research conclusions that promotional competitions are a valuable marketing tool. Many academics believe that promotional competitions are of limited marketing value, but the survey indicates that promotional competitions are a flexible communication tool with good short-term sales effectiveness. However, it also indicates that firms frequently manage the competitions poorly, with particular concerns being the poor pretesting and insurance of promotional competitions, and the absence of long-term impact assessment.
