Prize Calendar: interactive gamified countdown to Easter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Interactive calendars have been gaining traction over the past few years, especially Advent Calendars. Online communities respond to them incredibly well and so many brands have now incorporated interactive calendars into their marketing strategies. Easter Calendar is of the newest Easter competition ideas<\/strong> for engaging online audiences over a longer period of time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invite your followers to count the days down left until Easter! Encourage them to come back daily to win new attractive prizes<\/b>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take a look at the above example to see how the dynamic works. In this case, we prepared an Easter Calendar with four participation stages with four different games, each corresponding to a different day prior to the Easter Sunday. Over four days, users come back to participate in a new promotion stage every day and score points that will determine their position in the overall ranking. You can award prizes depending on the players’ positions in the ranking, run a random prize draw among all participants daily, or enter all registered users into a random prize draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creative Easter competition ideas to collect user-generated content<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Like every great festival, Easter has its own, instantly recognizable, visual style<\/b>. Eggs, bunnies, baby chicks, flowers, baskets, chocolates… And that makes it the perfect occasion for a themed Photo Contest. Family events such as Easter encourage people to take even more shots at family gatherings or during Easter preparations. Offer your audience a chance to win a prize and in return ask them for their festive shots. Remember, the incentive is the best motivator to join a promotion<\/b>! Offer your customers chocolate boxes, Easter decorations, or even small getaways. Looking to increase brand awareness<\/b> and reinforce product promotion<\/b>? Offer one of your products as the main prize!<\/p>\n\n\n

User-generated content<\/b> is the best-quality content to share on your social media channels if you’re looking to encourage customer loyalty<\/b> and brand trust<\/b>. Pictures, videos, and texts produced by your audience give more authenticity<\/b> to your brand and your potential customers might be more likely to convert<\/b> when reading and watching content shared by your existing client base. Bear in mind that UGC doesn’t have to be limited to photos, it can also be videos, texts, or any other format created by the user. And it gets even better, if you want to include more than one format in your contest, you can do so with the Voting Contest<\/a> app and include photo, video, or text entries in a single contest! Take a look at this successful case of an Easter photo contest<\/a> to get a better idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As well as the fun of joining in, contests bring plenty of benefits for your brand<\/b>. When people sign up and share their photos, you can collect contact details for sales leads<\/b>, as they fill in registration forms in order to submit their entries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creative Easter contest: Decorate your Easter eggs<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Finally, here’s one more way to bring traditional Easter egg decorating fun online: with our Easter Scenes app. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of running a standard photo contest, give your followers the tools to let their creativity unfold. Use our Scenes app to ask your online community to decorate their Easter eggs. Simply use the stickers provided in our app, or upload your own branded stickers to increase brand awareness<\/b> and visibility<\/b>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

By launching your own Easter Scenes promotion you will not only entertain<\/b> and engage<\/b> your audience. You get to collect user-generated content<\/b> and contact details<\/b> that you can then use for future marketing campaigns. Encourage users to also share their decorated Easter eggs on their social media pages; this will attract the attention<\/b> of other potential users. Motivate more people to join your promotion by offering a special prize to the entry that collects the highest number of votes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
