Run a giveaway or contest with a genuine, relevant prize

3-5 hr to plan and runImpact: mediumEffort: medium

Running a giveaway or contest with a genuine, relevant prize drives real engagement and reach, as long as the prize is genuinely relevant to your actual audience rather than a generic attention-grabber.

A well-matched prize attracts genuinely interested participants who are more likely to become real customers, not just prize-seekers unrelated to your business.

How to do it

  1. 1
    Choose a genuinely relevant prize
    Something your real target customer would actually want, not just anything valuable.
  2. 2
    Set clear, real entry requirements
    Genuine engagement actions, following platform contest rules.
  3. 3
    Follow platform rules precisely
    Contest and giveaway rules vary by platform and carry real compliance requirements.
