Hi dear @crypto.piotr Nice to say hello again.
Your goal defines your budget significantly, if you aim for prestige, you will need a high budget, if you aim for procurement, perhaps you might as well organize a writing contest, than a big competition. Define budget for incentives, goals, guidelines, the platform steemit etc.
Based on your organizational goals; point out the primary participant target for your contest rather. Defining the target participant audience is especially required to develop a strong communication and media strategy and to run an effective advertising campaign.
You must create and define a reason to attract and convince participants take their precious time to take part in your writing contest. Some incentives would be: award money, prestige, realization possibilities, job opportunities etc. Your incentives will affect the number of people significantly.
In most cases, the competition should be open to anyone of legal age, however in some cases, you might want to filter the participants based on your demographic or geographic targeting. This also applies, if you would need to limit the number of participants in the contest rather. Furthermore, you might want only to accept participants that fulfills a certain prerequisite therefore you might want to have a competition that is invite-only. Finally, you might plan to run a closed competition, for example by a predefined participant etc.
You should choose how the entries should be evaluated, judged, scored, voted, sorted, and ordered. It is important to define the evaluation methodology clearly and in detail as this information must be communicated to participants. Some evaluation methodologies do not require jury at all, but if there is a judging panel, we should also be defining the selection criteria for jury members and other relevant details.
Rewards promised to award winners or runner-ups should be delivered as stated in the initial competition announcement and call for participation. There are several times, when the organizer should devote a significant budget for advertisement. Especially the following events should be communicated and advertised extensively: Call for submissions announcement, entries open announcement, two-weeks before deadline announcements, three-days left announcement, results-announced announcement, and winners-rewarded announcements.
After the writing contest is over, it is intelligent to keep the steemit platform open. Furthermore, the platform can be later re-vitalized in order to arrange a new version of the competition.
Have a wonderful week
A big hug for you
