Here is what to do when you’re ready to run your ticket or general drawing:
- Log in to the admin view of your site.
- Go to Challenges > Drawings.
- Click on the name of the drawing in your “Current Drawings” tab. You’ll see the first 50 qualifying readers listed on the drawing page.
- Weighted drawings and ticket drawings internally calculate the number of additional entries/tickets for each qualifying reader, but still only display those readers once in the list.
- If you’d like to see how many tickets a specific reader submitted or any other qualifying details, you can click the reader’s name to view their profile.
- To see the full list/all qualifying readers, have it emailed to you by clicking “Export Qualifiers.”
- To pick your winner(s), click “Determine Winners” and they will display at the top of the page.
- You can also re-run or edit the drawing from this page as needed.
- When you have your final winners, you can begin notifying them via email or phone number. Beanstack does not notify winners automatically, giving you time to choose the final slate of winners and set your own notification and redemption timeline. Once a winner is chosen, however, the drawing win appears on the admin-view of their reader profile for easy redemption tracking.
- Repeat these steps to pick winners for the remaining drawings in your challenge.
Once you select winners, the drawing moves over to the “Completed Drawings” tab of your dashboard. You can edit, duplicate, archive, or delete it at any time using the quick-action icon buttonss to its right, and you can return archived drawings from the “Archived Drawings” tab at any time by clicking the archive icon button again.
Note: Keep in mind that Beanstack does not automatically notify drawing winners, so it's up to you to contact individual winners to let them know they've won!
