On some shortcomings of Facebook-Contests

For many companies competitions are a popular means for increasing the number of Facebook fans and generating leads. Allured by attractive prizes, customers are often inclined to quickly click on the "like" button. The fact that most of these newly-won fans are mor interested in the prizes than in your topics, let alone your company is an undesired side-effect. The result is that when the campaign is over, they become inactive. However, your social media content should be recommended, because you can only then benefit from the showpiece of social networks - virality.

The Solution: An interactive Competition

So if you start a contest, you should supply the users with the appropriate, high-quality content in addition to an attractive price also. This has two advantages in one: on the one hand it is ensured that the raffle-participants actively engage with your topics, on the other hand you position yourself in the competitive social network: Unique and original content promotes a positive image. This is precisely what can be achieved with our Social Media Software: Interactive Content entertains and informs at the same time. A crisp quiz with three to five competent questions and a subsequent participation in the sweepstake has a much greater effect on your fanbase than an ordinary lottery. Not less attractive are personality-checks, Advent calendars at Christmas time and other interactive formats.
