A novel way for radio stations to source prizes

It used to be that radio stations would hit up their existing clients and prospective advertisers for prize giveaways.

You could always rely on your friendly local bottler of Coca Cola to provide icy cold bottles of Coke as well as Hoadley’s to stump up Polly Waffles and Violet Crumbles.

But in this brave new world of a sharing economy, a website, Source Bottle, promises your prize source will come to you. Same if you’re looking for an expert to talk on air about personal training, fertility, investment or paranormal  activity, you can find them on Source Bottle in a sim,lar fashion to the way Air Tasker finds people to perform a variety of tasks around your house.

We were inrtigued to find an Australian radio station using the service to source 10 giveaways for an upcoming promotion. 

Here’s what their listing says:
