A Facebook Contest is an easy way to engage Fans and convert them into email signups by enticing them with a prize. One Facebook contest can give you the same return on investment as hundreds of pieces of content, saving you hours. For small business owners and small marketing teams, this time-savings is invaluable. In this article you’ll learn how to run a Facebook Contest to achieve specific goals and grow your business.
Contests are a great way to:
- Get exposure for your page. People – especially those on social media – love to be the first person to know about something, and to tell others about it. So give them some fodder for their social sharing habit! If your contest has a great prize, your followers are sure to share it with their social networks to maintain their reputation as a great source for information among their friends. Once their friends come to your Facebook page, they will probably give you a ‘like’. And even if they don’t their awareness of your brand has already been increased.
- Increase your number of likes. There is an organic and an inorganic way to go about this. The first is to simply count on the virality of your contest to bring exposure to your page and gain likes that way. People who enter your contest probably already like your page, but if they don’t, they’ll be sure to like you now in order to hear when the winner is announced. Another common practice is to make liking a mandatory part of the entry process. This can be a highly effective way to gain more followers on Facebook, but be aware of what your goals for this contest are before deciding to go this route. If your goal is strictly to increase the number of people who like your brand, this is a great idea.
- Grow your email database.
- Facebook contests are fun for your fans!
