What is the prize minimum and how do we get it to the winner(s)?
Giveaway prizes must be a minimum value of $1000 per winner and will be provided by you, the advertiser. Please note: the cost to run the giveaway with 6AM City is separate from this prize value.
Our preferred method of prize delivery is to have the item sent to us prior to the giveaway launch, ensuring that the winner(s) are notified and immediately coordinated with. If, however, the prize makes more sense to email/mail or provide in person to the winner, your Account Manager will connect you with the winner via email and will follow up to ensure the prize has actually been fulfilled.
What is the typical fulfillment timeline for Giveaways?
- To ensure our team has time to produce our best work and give you plenty of time to review it, we recommend submitting assets at least 2 weeks (10+ business days) in advance. If a quicker turnaround is needed, we are happy to accommodate if possible. Include your run date request when submitting the information and we will reach out with potential options and next steps.
