A Twitter contest titled ‘Natural Beauty Contest’ was conceptualised, where users were made to answer questions related to natural ingredients related to hair and skin care. About 17 questions were posted in span of 2-hours. Users were asked to use the brand hashtag (#MyBeautyNaturally) while answering.
2. Objectives
A. To create buzz about MyBeautyNaturally.com on Twitter
B. To increase the number of brand mentions on Twitter
C. To engage the relevant TG on Twitter
D. To increase number of MBN Followers on Twitter
3. We decided to build conversations around natural ingredients for hair and skin care in order to create
buzz about MBN on Twitter. Considering the fact that the user-base (followers) of MBN on Twitter
was not significant (40 followers), we decided to fuel the conversations through a Twitter contest.
A Twitter contest titled ‘Natural Beauty Contest’ was conceptualised, where users were made to answer
questions related to natural ingredients related to hair and skin care. About 17 questions were posted
in span of 2-hours. Users were asked to use the brand hashtag (#MyBeautyNaturally) while answering.
Execution:
To boost the participation in the contest, we pre-contacted about 10 social media influencers related
to beauty and lifestyle area and requested them to participate in the contest.
Apart from this, Dabur’s social media assets were leveraged to amplify the reach and create awareness
about the contest. A special ‘Cover picture’ announcing the contest was created and put up across all
Dabur FB pages (Skin & Hair), apart from MBN social media assets. Regular MBN newsletter was
blasted to a database of about 22,000 (registered with Dabur for Hair and Care Products) encouraging
users to participate in the contest on the day of the contest.
On Twitter, contest-alert related tweets were posted few hours before the contest was initiated.

6. What does Trending on Twitter mean?
Trending topics on Twitter show users what are the most
popular conversation topics on the microblogging site
right now. Potential trends are found by polling all
tweets for repeated hashtags, and their trend status is
determined by a combination of time tweeted and
volume of tweets containing the hashtag.
How Twitter arrives on Trending topics?
Twitter claims that trends are determined automatically
with Twitter's algorithms, so it is entirely up to the data
collected, and the way the algorithm interprets that data,
if the topic is going to become a trend.
The Twitter algorithm identifies topics that are
immediately popular, rather than topics that have been
popular for a while or on a daily basis, to help people
discover the ‘most breaking’ breaking news from across
the world.
