Cross-Channel Integrated Social Media Contests?

[PathMarketing]

I was wondering if anyone knew of an app or system to run integrated social media contests across multiple channels, ie people could get an entry for one or more of the following:

• "Like" us & our contest
• +1 us & our contest
• Be a member of the e-mail list or join it
• Tweet about the contest, w/ link ( ie "you could win: :")

Bonus if the link they Tweet could have a trackable referral id so that they would get extra entries when people click their referral link and then enter too. And if you could offer a reward for completing all the different ways to enter.

Does anyone have any experience with this kind of contest? Hopefully there's an app for this?

Cheers, Dan

Hello Dan.

There is ContestBurner:

http://www.contestburner.com

It has been around for a couple of years.

I have entered a couple of the contests to see how it works, and it seems very good.

I do have a copy of it (as a wordpress plugin) My site isn't wordpress, but you can probably attach it to any site.

It certainly can generate buzz and it can get you a lot of social mentions and links.

Whether this is any different to paid links or not, I don't know.

What you need is for someone who has used this method to tell us what they got out of it and if it lasted.

Hi Dan,

Check out Wildfire app, I think they might have at least most of what you're looking for. I haven't personally used it but I've heard from other Social Media folks that they like it a lot.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for the heads up... pretty intense landing page but according to the vid it's pretty well what I'm looking for.

Thanks! Was planning on taking a good look @ their mgmt system & the promotional tool looks pretty slick too + they're a market leader.
