Many authors offer contests and giveaways without thinking about the possible ramifications of doing so. Different countries have their own laws, but this workshop will focus on the legalities associated with doing contests.
- What exactly is the difference between a contest and a sweepstakes? Are there really differences, and why should I care?
- The mechanics of putting your contest together
- Legalities to know before you announce your contest
- How to make sure you don’t get accused of drawing name(s) of your rockstar readers and other complaints from those who entered
- Putting it all together into a successful contest people will remember and want more
- Class Format
- Savvy Authors' workshops are held on a forum: a bulletin board based system. You will receive a reminder notice one day prior to the start of the workshop that includes instructions on how to access the workshop forum. If you have not received instructions by the day the workshop begins, please check your spam filter.
The forum will be available the morning (EST) of the day the workshop starts and will remain accessible to all participants thereafter. You will also be given simple instructions on how to create a PDF of all your discussions along with our privacy and data retention policy.
Please note that you do NOT need to be online at a specific time to access the lectures. This is NOT a live video based class.
