Have a Good Social Media Account
While some contests say winners are chosen at random, chances are, they probably are not. Carefully decided winners are often selected because the company knows this account will promote their winnings which in turn makes the company win with free advertising. Be active on your social media platform so the contest judges will see someone who will do something with their win. Promote the contest on your page and tag the company or account with the giveaway, they will appreciate the shout out and it will put you in good positioning if they are running their giveaway in that manner.
