The 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup in France exceeded all expectations. And in 2023, it's set to be bigger than ever: up to a billion people will tune in to watch 24 nations battling for the trophy. But brands are falling behind. Here's how to stay ahead of the curve with marketing and promotions for the Women's World Cup.

So the Women’s World Cup is a growing market – and a chance for brands to show that they take women’s sport seriously. Depending on your brand and target market, this is especially important for customer relations and showing off your brand values and a perfect opportunity to launch a campaign with our Women’s World Cup prediction app.

The FIFA Women’s World Cup is a solid marketing opportunity, extending over a full month and 24 different countries. That’s plenty of time to grow your audience – including internationally – and learn more about your customers.

But how? With a good, old-fashioned, Women’s World Cup predictions contest.

What is a Women’s World Cup prediction contest?

This marketing campaign does what it says on the tin. You ask people to predict the results of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup – and if they get it right, they join your prize draw.

Depending on your goals, location, and budget, choose how big the contest will be. The Women’s World Cup features 52 matches in just 30 days, which is a lot of predictions!

Instead, you could ask people to predict results for a specific country or guess the results of the final rounds.
