Frequently asked questions
Why should I enter the Blutopia competition?
The economy points to a harder future and tightening budgets; so customer retention couldn't be more important. This partnering programme will give you an enhanced customer platform, together with improved customer insight; enabling increased confidence in your database and marketing campaigns.
What happens to my entry after I submit it?
Your entry will be studied by Blue Sheep's panel; and be judged on how you describe your current customer strategy and circumstances, and ideal future state. Judges will cut down entries to a shortlist of three businesses, from which the winner will be chosen.
