A website where you pay $10 a month to be a member and once you're a member you can buy $1 raffle tickets for items. There would be multiple items available every month and they'd be rare things like dates with models, trips to the Playboy mansion, black Macbook Airs, etc. Each item would have a counter on it telling people how many other people have already bought a ticket. Seems like a lot of people are into lotteries and it wouldn't be too expensive to start something like that, the goal would just be to have enough members to outweigh the cost of the items (so it'd probably need a few thousand members). What do you think?
Yea that seems like a good idea, you might have some hard times starting out though. Well maybe not you could start out with smaller items like TV's and stuff like that. But is it even possible to get a trip to the playboy mansion?
lol wow, That would be a hell of a start up cost that is for sure. But would be pretty cool. Instead of winning money you could win your dream
They have gold plated macbook air .... http://www.bornrich.org/entry/macbook-air-bling-with-gold-and-swarovski-crystal/
Those are just a couple item ideas I had, the site would also have a "suggestion box" where people can suggest items and maybe vote on other people's suggestions and the most popular ones would be used. I actually used to work in the entertainment business and Playboy party passes do come around once in awhile. Assuming that I could get ahold of some badass prizes, do ya'll like the idea, and do you think it's something you'd join?
Should be a piece of cake once you satisfy all the legal requirements and post the proper bonds. I think it'll take off big time myself. I'll join too.
Whoa !that would cost you a lot. Well you should have good advertisement and have developed good strategies so that you can attract more members.
good idea maybe you could set me up with a review date with a model an i will post a very good review lol
the idea seems good but will require you to have good amount of money to get this running. You ready to invest that much?
why will this need a good amount of money to get going? Providing you know what you are doing and have had at least a years worth of Interent Experience you should be able to get off the ground with very little money. I can see if someone new was trying to start off it would cost them, because they wouldn't know squat (html,php,css blah blah blah) and would have to pay for everything, but I say go for it before someone else does. Just make sure you think of the pricing. There would be more than 2000 members. And I mean if you charged $5 and then got the $1 raffle tickets that is $60+ just for 1 person for a year. Then you can have sponsors blah blah blah. Honestly man, JUST DO IT, TODAY BECAUSE TOMORROW NEVER COMES!
yeah thats good advice, i probably will do it at least for awhile and see how it goes. the only thing that'll cost money is the prizes but its not that big a deal does anyone know if its legal to set up something like this or if i need to get a gambling license or anything?
Interesting concept. I'm not the type to use it, but I'm sure there are a heap of people out there who would. Go for it!
Make sure you stick at it man. I would sugest setting everything up and then having a big launch week. With youtube video, myspace marketing, email marketing and so on. Make sure not to give up on it, for at least a couple of months, and then you will see big profits. Also if you want more advice feel free to ask. And btw make sure you are getting your money/wage/allowance whatever back as well as the money you spend on prizes! All the best!
thanks for the ideas, i've never tried youtube marketing before but i'll look into it. any tips? what do you mean? the prizes will be delivered regardless of if i'm profiting or not, so the users have nothing to lose, its basically just like a lottery
You need to understand your local gaming laws before going into this too seriously. You are setting up a game of chance for profit and that type of activity is usually regulated pretty heavily. I advise checking with an attorney first.
