Editor's Notes

- 30 billion pieces of content shared each month
- by lowering the barrier to contest entry i.e. 50 votes and conducting a random draw, brands can build a participation ‘long tail’ that:prompts more people to enter because there is a reasonable chance of winning vs. having to compete with contest pros that buy/exchange votes.helps create business value by prompting brand communication with real people and fueling genuine word of mouth – with a low barrier to entry fans will likely share contest details/expose the brand to friends, family or colleagues. The low barrier of entry discourages users that participate in voting groups.creates an even playing field for participants and minimizes acrimony – the contest is deemed to be fair, doesn’t get overrun by people exchanging votes and mitigates negative dialogue.There is much more value in having a slower rate of acquisition and building a fan base that has the potential to be engaged … rather than rapid growth created by smoke and mirrors.

- Being able to accomplish all three is what made this so powerful
- Julie
- Key point: partnership with Arizona Cardinals. Did better as a result of their fan base – but also grew their fan base.Made perfect sense from synergy standpoint.
- Substantial growth in Facebook fans.
- Even with smaller budgets you can still earn business.
- Jeff:Another example of a client wanting to piggyback on ABC15 fanbase. Very similar to PIR messaging. They grew their fanbase more than we did. We used our fanbase to market the contest and to sell the contest to Fiat.
- Since I first saw this contest WSH has increased their likes by 10,000!
- Jeff:
