Frequently made mistakes

We are all human and we all make mistakes, but some are made more often than others. If you can avoid some of these pitfalls then you'll go some way to minimising the risk of your promotion going wrong.

  • Is the chosen mechanic feasible and will it work. 'Sense-check' that it works
  • Check and review terms and conditions including the IPM for final approval
  • Action every concern that may be raised and don’t assume 'it will never happen'
  • Ensure systems in place to provide auditing and independent overview
  • Incorporate check procedures within winning messages and codes
  • Can packaging accommodate unique codes or winning messages and still look the same
  • Understand limitations of print and production processes
  • Ensure seeding of winners is fair and random
  • Check every aspect of security
  • Have systems in place to monitor and check claims


At Enable we undertake these sorts of checks every day across every conceivable type of promotion.  We know what to spot and what to check and we also know how to overcome any issues.
