“Floyd’s and Snek partnered up for the campaign to utilize their fan bases and existing lists to further expand their subscribers and presence. We promoted the contest via a 3 week Facebook ad campaign and our email lists through an announcement.”

    Key contest marketing takeaways:

  •  A great prize: By teaming up they were able to create not one but two great prize packages including a variety of brand products and a combined value near $1000.

  • Points: The team awarded the most amount of points to the marketing platforms they wanted to see the most gains; Instagram follow, newsletter sign-up and visit their websites. Contestants are then motivated to enter multiple times to increase their chances of wining by gaining more points into the marketing giveaway.
  • Share Entry:  This is your secret weapon!  They’ve called it ‘refer a friend’ and is a great way to organically promote a contest. When  contestants choose this entry method, they’ll share a custom tracking link that’s easily distributed via email or social networks allowing Rewards Fuel  to track any new contestants that enter. When a new entry is confirmed from this tracking link,  the person sharing the link will receive entry point(s) into your contest improving their odds of winning.
  • Visit Entry:  This entry method is re-named as ‘view Sneks cycling products’ and ‘View Floyd’s CBD products’. This awards points to contestants for visiting a website, boosting traffic, awareness and increasing conversions.
