To enter the competitions patients must complete the prize draw entry forms. 

Please take a few moments to read the following details about these exciting patient competitions, which we are offering to all Sight Care members. It is very simple to administer and we believe it will raise the awareness of your practice and increase sale frames by encouraging younger patients to participate. It will also give you an excellent PR opportunity if one of your patients wins a competition.

How the competitions work (Terms and conditions are printed on the leaflets you will receive)

·    There will be 3 separate chances for patients to enter when they purchase a Jump or Edge frame. The three different closing dates are: 31^st October 2011, 29^th February 2012 and 30^th June 2012

·    By completing and returning the detachable slip on either the Jump or Edge leaflet, patients will be eligible, up until the 30^th June 2012, to win in a prize draw.

·    There are 3 competitions for Jump; a Nintendo DSi will be awarded to the winner of each competition.

·    There are 3 competitions for Edge; a prize of either a Segway Rally experience, or a Make Over experience for two will be awarded to the winner of each competition.

·    Completed entry forms from your patients should be returned directly to a member of your staff. Your patient entries should be returned to Sight Care, PO Box 6252, Basingstoke, RG23 7ZZ with 7 days of the closing date of each competition. The winning slip will then be drawn at random from all entries from across the UK.

·    If one of your patients is successful, we will contact you with the name of the winning patient to discuss how the prize should be presented and how to maximise the publicity to benefit your practice. Winners should be notified by you within thirty days after the closing date of each competition and prizes should be awarded no later than 2 weeks after notifying the winner.

·    The winning practice will be announced on Sight Care’s website and a press release will be sent to optical magazines subject to your agreement.

How it benefits you

We feel not only will this competition benefit your patients and encourage them to return to your practice but that it also provides significant benefits to you.

·    You can use the leaflets both as mailers and reminders, in addition to displaying them in your practice to maximise interest.

·    There are various opportunities for you to increase the exposure of your practice in the local community by sending press releases to local newspapers, magazines and other relevant media advising them of the competition. Information should be freely distributed to patient’s in-practice and possibly to local schools or colleges and activity groups.

·    If one of your patients were to win a prize, there would be an excellent photo opportunity for you to use with the media.
