Many business owners hear the idea of a Giveaway Event and think this to themselves
This is probably the exact opposite of what a well created Giveaway Event will do for your business.
‘Some of the top brands in the world run very attractive Giveaway Events. They do not do it because it costs them money. They run Giveaway Events because they are very profitable!’
This could be your opportunity to join them, with a Giveaway Event designed specifically for your small or medium sized businesses and with an affordable budget to suit your needs.
There are many ways in which a Giveaway Event can be created.
The smartest type of Giveaway Event is one that looks very valuable to the client or customer but costs a fraction of the perceived value.
This is how you are able to give away incentives that will generate or close more sales for your most profitable products or services. You can also expect it to generate an excited buzz around your business that your customers will rave about!
Used properly, these dynamic reward incentives can be a motivation for you, your staff and your leads, prospects and customers.
Happy clients and customers will tell their friends and people they know. Good news spreads fast!
Drive more visitors to your website, grow your business, get more email subscribers, more social media followers, increase customer engagement and generate more sales and profit.
It is a ‘win-win’ situation.
The fact is that every type of business or organisation can benefit from incentives, promotions and Giveaway Events.
Here a few of the different types of businesses that have already benefited are shown below.

It's important to have a clear objective for the giveaway event, whether it's to attract new customers, generate leads, or promote a new product or service. The incentives should be carefully chosen to appeal to the target audience and encourage them to take action.
Relevant incentives are more likely to attract the right audience and increase engagement with your event. They can also help to establish your business as an authority in the business niche and build trust with potential customers
Promotion is key to the success of any giveaway event. Using a variety of online channels can help to reach a wider audience and generate more interest and engagement with your event
The design of the event should be focused on your target audience and their needs and preferences. This will help to attract the right people and increase the chances of converting them into customers. When your business is offering a desirable incentive that people want, converting new business becomes so much easier. The correct incentives will have new customers and clients seeking out your business because they want what you are offering!
By avoiding common mistakes, businesses can maximize the potential of the giveaway event and achieve better results. This can also help to establish your business as a professional and trustworthy brand
Tiered rewards can encourage customers to spend more and increase the profitability of the business. This can also help to establish a loyal customer base and generate more repeat business
Having a clear plan for marketing resources can help to streamline the promotion process and ensure that all materials are consistent and on-brand. This can also help to save time and reduce stress during the event
A viral component, such as a social media contest or referral program, can help to increase the reach and engagement of the giveaway event. This can also help to establish the business as a fun and engaging brand
Paid advertising can help to increase the visibility and reach of the event, especially if it's targeted to the right audience. This can also help to generate more leads and customers for the business
We recommend running Giveaway events that attract the ideal prospects leads and customers because they already want the service or product your business offers. Structuring the Giveaway in a way that makes the prize an optional extra to your offer will work to ensure your Giveaway Event is not attracting people just to gain the prize in the Giveaway Event
Consider the rules your Giveaway Event will need. Will there be age restrictions, rules for entry, the number of prizes to be awarded and any limits upon the number of prizes someone can win
By structuring your Giveaway Event in the correct way you can generally ensure it complies with any legal requirements by ensuring it is not classified as requiring a license. Also ensure there are no specific local laws or rules to comply with. This is not normally a problem if the Giveaway Event is properly structured
Facebook and other platforms will require inclusion of rules for your Giveaway Event. In addition, you will need a disclaimer to indicate Facebook is not affiliated to your Giveaway Event. Also, you cannot make it a requirement to ‘like’ a post as a condition for entry to the Giveaway Event.
Other social platforms have their own rules to check out before posting
Tracking and analyzing the success of the giveaway event can help to identify what worked well and what can be improved for future events. This can also help to establish the business as a data-driven and customer-focused brand
Giveaway events as promotions are highly beneficial both for your business and for your customers, new prospects and leads.
They can certainly help to grow your business and to increase profits and sales.
Your brand becomes better known and many of the new customers and clients you acquire will become long term customers that love your business.
The rewards are well worth it and once you have run one Giveaway Event it is almost guaranteed it will be the first of many.
Giveaway Events are one of the most powerful marketing and business growth activities you can use in your business today
