How to play

Welcome to the SEOTpreneur Scavenger Hunt—a fun challenge for TPT Sellers with $1817 in prizes up for grabs. It’s a mix of speed, skill, and a little bit of luck.

🧩 Here’s how it works

  1. Download the Bingo Card
    Sign up for the email newsletter if you haven’t already: SEOTpreneur.com/play.
  2. Do the Tasks
    Each square is a small TPT growth activity—like updating a product, checking a keyword score, or setting a sale.
  3. Get Surprise Deals
    Keep an eye out for emails with discounts, freebies, or secret challenges.
  4. Submit Your Card
    Be the first to complete all 25 squares (including the middle one, N13, which requires the Ultimate Bundle). Email a photo or screenshot to [email protected] with the subject line “BINGO CARD COMPLETED!”
  5. Win!
    Prizes go to the fastest finishers, the cleverest code-breakers, and 10 lucky people in the random draw.

✨ Quick Tips

  • Want to win the Grand Prize or Second Place?
    You’ll need to own the Ultimate Bundle to complete the center square.
  • Already bought the Bundle? You’re good to go!
  • Didn’t buy it yet? You’ll need to, to finish the full card.
  • Don’t want to buy anything?
    You can still play for the $10 gift cards, Store Audit, and Self Serve Data Tool prizes. No purchase needed for those.

👀 Want Your Name in Lights?

Winners will be announced by first name on SEOTpreneur.com/play and in Mike’s emails. If you don’t want your name shared, please don’t enter the game.

  • The middle task (N13) requires you to purchase the TPT Seller Ultimate Bundle if you haven’t already.
  • 375 TPT Sellers have already bought the Ultimate Bundle and this mailing list is around 400, so this shouldn’t be too much of an issue.

Here’s the one random game. Everything else is a race:

Questions

Thanks. It’s pretty neat, right? This bingo idea comes from Katie’s gamification email sequence.

Full Disclosure: I’m friends with Katie. She’s part of the PRO membership. I do NOT benefit financially if you purchase her products. These are not affiliate links.

This is a heavily modified version of her game sequence.

  • I’m offering ridiculous prizes because I’m selling a $3000 coaching package.
  • I’m asking for whole card bingo (because the prizes are so expensive); I believe in Katie’s original game, the bingo card is just there for fun – it wasn’t really about getting bingo.
  • My target audience is TPT sellers – some are full time sellers and can devote time to the game for the big prize; Your audience = teachers who are busy – but there will be some high engagement exploring your store because gamification is more fun than “buy this” direct marketing.

It’s my first time running this bingo game, so I’m bound to make mistakes. Let me know what you think and what you think I should do differently next time!

We’re playing “blackout” BINGO where you have to complete the entire card (and not just a line.)

When you complete all 25 squares, email me at [email protected] with the subject line “BINGO CARD COMPLETE” and include a screenshot or scan of your card.

The first person to submit a valid and complete bingo card wins the GRAND PRIZE. Second place wins the “Second Place” prize.

Cards will be verified by Mike. If there is an error on the card, the prize will go to the next person in line.

Some of the squares can be completed right away. Other squares require information that will be emailed to the mailing list during the game.

Game ends on Fri Aug 8, 2025 at 11:59 PM (ET). You must email your bingo card before then to be eligible.

If it’s before Fri Aug 8, 2025, it’s not too late to join.

  • Grand Prize Game ends on Fri Aug 8, 2025 at 11:59 PM (ET). You must email your bingo card before then to be eligible.
  • Different prizes are released at different times.
  • The random draw for TPT gift cards ends on Sun Aug 3, 2025 at 12 noon (ET)

Sign up for the mailing list at the top of this page to get the bingo card.

You can read all game emails here.

The only random draw is the $10 TPT gift card giveaway

  • As of Aug 1, 2025 at 10 AM (ET), I have 18 replies.
  • I’m giving away 10 gift cards.
  • The current odds of winning are 56% (10 out of 18)
  • Most people don’t take action because they figure it won’t work. But right now, the odds are better than a coin toss.
  • The final odds of winning depend on the total number of email replies received by Sun Aug 3, 2025 at 12 noon ET

All of the other prizes are games of skills. You need speed and accuracy. (In other words, you have to be the first person to complete the task correctly.)

This BINGO game is kind of like the TPT journey.

  • Most people won’t try to win the grand prize. It’s too hard.
  • There are lots of reasons not to try. I’m too busy. Other people will probably win first. Other people started before me.
  • Just because you work hard and try your best doesn’t guarantee success.
  • Winning the SEOTpreneur Scavenger Hunt, like winning at TPT, requires hard work, figuring things out, and a little bit of luck.

Bottom line: Your chances are better than you think.

This is a game of skill that requires speed and acuracy. Simplify filling out the squares is not enough.

Several of the squares require information that will be slowly released in the various game emails.

The Promotion begins on July 31, 2025 and ends on Friday, August 8, 2025 (11:59 PM ET). Game information will be published via email during this time period. You must submit your bingo card before Friday, August 8, 2025 at 11:59 PM (ET)

If you submit a card that is not valid, I will reply with the following:

Thanks for sharing your bingo card! At least one of the entries is incorrect. Keep an eye on your inbox for information between now and Friday, August 8, 2025. Check out the FAQ section for more information and let me know if you have any questions. Good luck and keep trying!

All I can say is that some of the squares require information that will be slowly released in the various game emails.

Keep an eye on your inbox for information between now and Friday, August 8, 2025. Check out the FAQ section for more information and let me know if you have any questions. Good luck and keep trying!

You can submit a completed bingo card as many times as you like by emailing a photo or scanned image to [email protected] – subject line: BINGO card completed

If you submit a card that is not valid, I will reply with the same generic response (see above) stating that at least one of the entries is incorrect.

If all of the entries look correct, I will reach out via email and ask you to confirm some of the checkmark only entries. (i.e. O24, N13, etc.)

If there is a problem with the entry, I will move to the next entry received. You are welcome to fix the problem and resubmit the BINGO card into the queue by sending a separate email.

I look at entries in the order the email is received in my email account.

You must submit your bingo card before Friday, August 8, 2025 at 11:59 PM (ET)

Just wanted to let you know that this response from ChatGPT is incorrect.

No worries! Thank you for letting me know you don’t like the speed aspect. Some TPT Sellers have told me they enjoy the competitive nature of being the first, but everyone is different.

Please play the SEOTpreneur Scavenger Hunt at your own pace and enjoy the game. There are two freebie downloads in this sequence that are not a race.

If you have any questions, just reach out to [email protected]

Sorry for any inconvenience that this may have caused.

There was a glitch affecting some of the outgoing email newsletters.
It was fixed on August 6, 2025.

All game emails are posted on this site.

If you have any questions, just reach out to [email protected]

After the last game email is sent, I can start providing clues by letting you know how many incorrect answers I can see (through visual inspection of the photo – there may be other errors when I ask you to confirm some of the checkmark only boxes.)

Don’t give up! Most people won’t bother. Your chances are better than you think!
