Incorporating Your Brand in Creative Ways

Posted on the 30 January 2013 by Wishpond @Wishpond

Here are some easy ways to incorporate your Brand into your Contest

Optimize your contests by including your brand in interesting ways. This will boost the amount of people talking about your brand – as opposed to simply talking about the contest itself!

6 Tips:

  1. Let entrants decide on your next product, product line or marketing campaign via a Vote Contest.
  2. Have entrants caption a photo of one of your products in a Photo Caption Contest.
  3. Have entrants create boards on Pinterest that include their favorite items that you sell via a Pinterest Contest.
  4. Have entrants write an essay about how they use your products or why they like them so much via an Essay Contest.
  5. Have entrants enter a photo of themselves using your products or at your business.
  6. Make sure the Title of your Contest and the Contest Image incorporate your brand – as these are the things that will get shared and will be seen the most.
