Welcome to India's first creative crowdsourcing competition-based website. BrandPotion is the place for all you advertising-lovers to add your two cents to brands' advertising and marketing strategies. We also make it a habit to run our own competitions that add a bit of spice to the mix. BrandPotion is the best place for you to test your creativity against other creative folk, both amateurs and professionals.

In over 20 competitions, we've seen more than 2,900 ads uploaded to the different categories of print, video, banner and so on, with participants playing for prizes like cash, BlackBerrys, iPads, iPods, digital cameras, PlayStations, PSPs and much more.

So how do you become a winner on BrandPotion? Let us explain.

1. Head over to our competitions page. You'll also find current competitions on our homepage.

2. Pick a competition that you find interesting. Or, you could upload ads to every competition. We don't limit the number of uploads per competition, so feel free to upload as many ads as you like.

3. Read the brief. This is really important, as it gives you a clearer idea of what your ad should contain---i.e. what the brand's looking for.

4. Make your ad. While it's not necessary to use great visuals or refined copy, we suggest ensuring that your idea comes across as it should---sometimes this means using better images and well-written copy.

5. Upload your ad. After you've uploaded your ad, you can share it on Facebook and Twitter, or send it to your friends.

6. Find out if you've won. Check the BrandPotion blog after every competition ends, to find out if you're one of our lucky winners. You'll also receive an email when you win.

7. Repeat. To win again, play again.

BrandPotion is where you can use your creativity to win not just prizes, but recognition from the advertising community. Sign up or get started now .
