BENEFITS
A branded pool holds benefits for many type of businesses including:
  • Sports Related Businesses (Sports Bars, Retail, Gyms) - Offering a pool contest with prizes gets people interested in your business, increasing brand awareness. We can also collect information from each entry like addresses or specific questions you would like asked to help you learn more about your customers.
  • Web Businesses (Newspapers, TV, Magazines) - For any business with a significant web presence, a branded pool is a great way to build awareness of your site. Coupled with promotion and the "word of mouth" advertising that sports pools naturally drive, a pool will increase traffic to your site throughout the month of the tournament.
  • Any Business or Group - If you are part of any business or group and simply want a way to have fun event for your employees or fellow group members, running a branded pool is a great way to do it with style.
  • Brochure - Check out our brochure for more information.

DATA COLLECTION
We offer invaluable data collection features. You can specify up to ten 'multiple choice' or fill in the blank type questions you would like to ask each entrant, in addition to address information if desired. After collecting each entrant's answers we'll send you a report spreadsheet for your analysis. This is the kind of hard to get information that can prove invaluable to any business wanting to know more about potential customers and what they are thinking.

CUSTOMIZATION
We don't just offer you a simple banner with a link. In addition you can specify up to three more images with links to show up on your pool site pages, along with the full color scheme you'd like us to use.

QUALITY
By using netBrackets, you don't get some watered-down basic pool. You get the full netBrackets feature set including forums (if desired), win analysis and all the other 'goodness' listed on our Features page. Very important when you're trying to project a quality image.
Here's a sample screen shot, and another.
