Capture Holiday Memories at Ryan's, HomeTown Buffet and Old Country Buffet as They Launch Seasonal Family Sweepstakes with dotPhoto
Ryan's, HomeTown Buffet and Old Country Buffet have partnered with photo sharing site dotPhoto for an online contest called Your Favorite Buffets Seasonal Family Sweepstakes. The three entry periods correspond with upcoming holidays: Thanksgiving, December holidays and New Year's.
- Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson, SC (1888PressRelease) November 11, 2013 - Ovation® Brands, the parent company of national steak-buffet restaurants Ryan's®, HomeTown® Buffet and Old Country Buffet®, has just launched a partnership with the photo sharing site, dotPhoto. The Your Favorite Buffets Seasonal Family Sweepstakes encourages families to upload and share their holiday photos at buffets.dotphoto.com. The first entry period, for the Thanksgiving holiday, is from November 7 to December 2.
For each of the three entry periods, Thanksgiving, the December holidays and New Year's, dotPhoto will randomly select one photo from all of the submissions. Each of the three grand prize winners over the course of the promotion will receive one family meal at any of the buffet restaurants per month for a full year, with a total value of $480, and a dotPhoto photo book valued at $39.95. All entrants who share their photos will receive a free three-month dotPhoto Club membership, which provides free shipping on all orders, and a $1 off coupon for their next visit to any of the buffet restaurants.
The promotion comes at the busiest time of the year for photo sharing. The winter holidays are when many families get together and take pictures with one another. Further, the months mark a popular time to order greeting cards, photo books and other printed products as gifts for friends and families. The sweepstakes' grand prize also includes dotPhoto's new free design service that helps time-challenged families create high-quality photo books.
"Our restaurants are always a place for families to build memories, but we know that the fall and winter holidays are when families take the most photos with their loved ones," says Alice Crowder, Vice President of Marketing for Ovation Brands. "Whether they take pictures while dining in our restaurants or at home, we want our guests to have a special place to upload and share their photos. dotPhoto was the perfect platform for that."
"People take photos of their celebrations, and many families celebrate milestones at Ryan's, HomeTown Buffet and Old Country Buffet restaurants," says Glenn Paul, co-owner and founder of dotPhoto. "We're thrilled to help people preserve some of their favorite family memories at dotPhoto."
