Win free ad space on Mintees [Facebook Contest]

Posted August 26th, 2011 by jared

To get ourselves more likes on our Mintees Facebook Page, we've come up with a little contest idea.

As I type this, Mintees has 1,938 likes on Facebook, my goal is to get us to 2,500 likes via you guys and your brands' Facebook pages sharing posts about Mintees by using the @mention feature (this way we can confirm you actually posted it). You can recommend Mintees to fans, other brands, or just link to your profile, tees or favorite talk posts.

When we get to 2,500 likes, we're giving away a month of the home page feature (200x125px, towards the bottom) to a randomly selected person/brand who participated. It's the most coveted ad spot we have (tons of impressions and the most clicks out of any of them).

If this works out well, we'll do it a lot more often and probably include Twitter as well.

Don't forget to participate in the poll we launched for feedback on pay-per-click ad pricing on the site.

If you guys can get us to 2500 likes by Thursday (end of day, Eastern time) I will give away two ad spots. Doubling your chances of winning one.

I'm notoriously bad at mental math, but... if we go from giving one spot away, to giving two spots away. Everyone's chance is doubled.

We're almost there guys! I'm going to throw in another ad spot just to work you guys up in this thing again.

Just to recap...

When we get to 2,500 likes, we're giving away two ad spots (monthly square rotation) to random people or brands that mention our Facebook page since the promotion started.

Your post can be asking people to like us to help you get the ad spot or just talk about us. Either way works for us!

Good luck!
