Home improvement magazines often hold competitions as a way to promote their publications and encourage customer loyalty among readers.  While these competitions may be designed as a good way for magazines to attract more readers and keep their current readership happy and involved in the magazine community, from a readers perspective – they can be just as beneficial.  Many of the writing competitions on offer at these magazines provide some fantastic prizes for the winner, with some even offering great prizes for the second and third places as well.  While many magazines may regularly hold writing and other types of competitions, the nature of home improvement magazines often means that the prizes on offer are more substantial.

Writing competitions are a great idea that work well for many magazines publications and are generally much loved by magazine editors around the world.  They provide a way for a magazine to receive free stories from their readership which they can publish at a later date, as well as a way to reach out to readers and encourage new people to start reading and interacting with the magazine.  Because there are so many benefits from the magazine’s perspective, they are often happy to interact with other companies and organise great prizes for the winners.  Some of the most generous writing competitions have even given away an Outdoor whirlpool (Außenwhirlpool) as the major prize for the winning story.

The outdoor whirlpool and spa bath company involved with these kinds of give aways is also able to benefit from what is in essence a form of free advertising for its product.  At the same time as they are giving away one of their great products, many thousands of people are becoming aware of their company and product name.  Greater consumer identity is one of the benefits for any company prepared to give away one of their products in a competition environment.  Many companies include their website address along with the details, meaning that if any magazine readers come across the competition details and see the product prize on offer, they are able to easily go to the related website -
www.masterwhirlpools.com – and find out more information about the company and their other products.  Writing competitions work so well because they benefit all parties involved:  the magazine, the product supplier, and the readership – especially the lucky and talented winners.
