Social Media, What's New

What’s the fastest, easiest way to reach thousands of prospects and customers instantly for free? Besides email, it’s Twitter. Twitter is fast becoming a staple in marketing tool kits. Companies using it effectively are driving more traffic to their websites, building followers and reducing marketing clutter (and cost!).

Listeners, customers, prospects, clients – they subscribe to your Twitter feed – and become “followers” of your message. You “tweet” short messages and your subscribers get them instantly via their computer or mobile phone.

Imagine driving immediate traffic with a simple tweet! It pays to build a Twitter following.

Give your audience a reason to follow you immediately by offering a chance at a big prize. Use PrizeCode to deliver an instant chance to win $10,000, $25,000, $50,000 or more.

Here are a few simple ways to add big prizes to your promotions, increase your Twitter following and generate immediate traffic.

  • Randomly select a follower each day, week or month to receive a chance to win.
  • Preselect a follower for their Birthday Tweet – If their birthday matches the preselected birthday they win! For example match the month wins $100; match the month & day wins $1000; match the month day and year wins $100,000!
  • Schedule big-prize promotions at your location, and invite people exclusively through Twitter to come into your location and play. For example: Create a special “Money Bags Game Show” that offers one follower the chance to play for big money at your retail location.

Because Twitter is such an easy way to communicate, it’s also a perfect tool for leveraging a sponsorship. For example you could conduct a score prediction contest where fans tweet their score picks. One lucky fan closest to the correct score is selected to play for the big money.

Building your Twitter following — and using Twitter to connect with your target audience — is a key marketing strategy today. Putting big prizes to work to build your Twitter following quickly can help drive more traffic and increase sales far into the future.
