Why Giveaways Work So Well on Facebook

Facebook giveaways work extremely well for a few reasons:

  • No ads — Nevermind the maze of choices that is the Facebook ads manager, and the face that Facebook can turn off your ads account at any time, relying on giveaways to grow your audience is still the most effective organic way to grow
  • New followers — Gone are the days of growing your “likes” on Facebook, but they do still matter for ad targeting and allow you to reach them with organic posts.
  • User generated content — These campaigns can, in a way, run themselves with little oversight as all the content is user generated.

 

 

How to create a good contest or giveaway post

Here’s a quick 4-step process for creating a great facebook giveaway post:

  1. Call out exactly what you are giving away — By listing out the exact things being given away, you’ll avoid confusion (a major engagement killer).
  2. Test multiple creative images, videos, etc. — The image or video you like best may not always perform the best! Consider setting up multiple posts to test which drives the most content engagement.
  3. Give an incentive for signing up — Giving participants an incentive to participate (even if they don’t win) is a valuable way to drive engagement and build your email list.
  4. Include a section of how the contest works — So many facebook giveaways don’t do this. By explaining exactly how the contest works, you’ll not only increase participation, but help to cover yourself legally.
