What's the difference between "hosted" and "template" in a syndicated contest?
What's the difference between "hosted" and "template" in a syndicated contest?

If you're on a parent account (market level), you can create a syndicated campaign. After creating a campaign on a parent account, if you click on More Settings and scroll down you will see the Syndication Type button with two options to choose from: Hosted and Template.

Here is how each one works:

Hosted

  • Maintain settings permissions from the parent (market) account

  • View aggregate stats from all accounts running the campaign

  • Download a CSV of all participants across all accounts running the campaign

  • Pick an overall winner of the campaign

  • Hosted campaigns are used once and done

  • Great for running corporate or national campaigns

Template

  • Once a template is built, the settings are maintained by the child (station) account

  • No overall aggregate stats

  • No CSV download available of overall participants who entered a campaign created as a Template

  • No ability to pick an overall winner of the campaign at the top level

  • Templates can be reused over and over again

  • Great for simplifying contest setup
