Boost your social media with a model contest

It's not always easy to tell if your social media tactics will work until you actually try them out. Not every idea will be a perfect fit for every type of business and not every idea will be available to you for free or at a low enough cost. This idea is basically free (unless you offer a cash prize for the winner, but you don't have to). Start a model search for your fan page. This works for fashion, events and more. Get models to enter your contest by offering a reward for the model with the most popularity. You can offer money, the chance to be on your advertising as the face of your product or event for their own publicity or a professional Photoshoot for photos plus being your cover model.

There are free ways to set up the contest. You can set up a firm for models to fill out on the website www.wufoo.com they let you have up to 3 online forms for free. Then you set up a photo folder in your Facebook photos that says "Cover model contest" Add the contest rules, for instance, "write vote in a comment under the model you wish to vote for, only one vote per person per model." Tell the models to post about the model contest on their Facebook to tell their friends to vote for them.

The result is that you will get a lot if traffic to your Facebook post and page which will boost the contest post to be seen by more fans on your Facebook fan page. You will also get more likes on your Facebook page because your contestant models will draw attention to your page and also new fans must like your page in order to vote in the contest.
