Ballots provide you with tons of sponsorship opportunities. There are built-in ad spots located above each group and category that can be sold to one or more advertisers. Plus, you can sell listings that are featured on the ballot that include an image, description, phone number, links, and more.

Grow a Rich Database

Ballots are a great way to build robust consumer profiles. Since users choose which categories they want to vote in, you know explicitly what topics a person cares about (and what they don’t). Plus, you can grow your email lists by collecting opt-ins on the registration page.

Multiple Ballot Types

You can choose between two types of ballots. Voting Ballots have one round of voting where you can add entrants or allow your audience to write-in their own. Nomination & Voting Ballots have separate nomination and voting rounds. First you ask your audience to nominate their favorites. Then you open the ballot for voting.
