Thanks guys. Appreciate the feedback!
Maybe a project car with mot etc would mean it doesn’t need to be mint. I agree with Nicky you need something cheaper to help build traction.Hard to get clean cars at that money, and would want to be presenting any vehicle we have for competition as a nice clean tidy example
Thanks though and will have a look at a few options and see if anything is suitable
I agree and a good way to build interest.Surely something like a £5 entry/500 tickets raffle for a half decent motor 530D or something cheap to get the ball rolling would be better?
No point sitting there with a £6k car/bike and it not selling while it’s MOT dwindles away.
Thanks for the feedbackLower price then people have the option to buy more tickets.
Its all relative to the amount of FB followers you have too. You cant run a draw where you are relying on 100% (or even close) of your followers to buy a ticket for.
This is probably how RKings are successful. Yes, they stick to High prices, but they only need a tiny percentage of their followers to buy, to sell out. The rest are left with a feeling of FOMO and are primed up for the next draw. No-one could afford to enter literally every draw they do, but because the draw numbers are low, they dont need them to.
If you go for large entry/low price but rinse your entire customer base, it'll be hard to get them to buy in for the next one
Have to say I am not keen on doing any cheap car as I want to build a reputation for having good clean examples of any motor, So think quads & roadbikes would be a good way to break into the market as generally speaking they are not expensive and you can get good well looked examples!Maybe a project car with mot etc would mean it doesn’t need to be mint. I agree with Nicky you need something cheaper to help build traction.
I agree and a good way to build interest.
No Colin, thats 100%, As said its a learning curve for us and we have to take all advice on board! We will have to try a few different things and see what works, Thanks for the replyYou ask for advice here and on other threads, but it sounds like you are telling the customer what they want.
If the prizes you currently have are so good, then surely some of the 3000 people that liked your page would have snapped up 300 tickets. And realistically how many people are actually going to want quads or bikes? When actually needing a place to ride them and store them.
As for wanting to have good clean examples of expensive cars, there is already plenty of competition out there doing exactly that, as you will know, why not give something different? R-Kings have a mixture of vehicles because they ask the customer what they want to see. Some of their cars are selling out in under an hour that haven't even been given a wash or vacuum. People aren't so worried about clean examples when they could win it for pocket change. I don't believe that if you where to offer a cheaper car that would get some interest going, that the winner would turn round and say "this Audi S3 is not as clean as I expected, I want my fiver back".
The above may seem cheeky, but it isn't ment to be. Just offering some thoughts.
I agree, if I see a comp for quads etc I scroll on past.You ask for advice here and on other threads, but it sounds like you are telling the customer what they want.

We can push it back 4 times if we want to but we will just see how we get on and hope get more sales closer to timer end. We will be putting up a few motors in the next few weeks so hopefully it drices some traffic to the websiteWhat if you don't sell out on the bundle comps your running currently, are you going to draw from the people that's entered or push the date up?
Regardless of the prize no one wants to wait 2 or 3 weeks to find out if they won
I’m not really interested in the tech bundles but the draw time would put me off buying.
Look at Rkings for example regardless what they have up its selling fast, there’s actually times it’s been sold out before even getting posted on all accounts.
How about small quick draws to get the buyers and followers up?
Something for the guys bored in work wanting a quick punt etc
Hopefully this comes across as helpful.
