Through the awesome promotions that run on our platform, we get the opportunity to see some pretty impressive content. Every Friday we dish out BOOM! AWARDS to our favorite contest entries.
Contest: Mountain Hard Wear’s Cash For Clunkers
Entry: Kicking it Old School Michael P. Bradley.
Mr. Bradley’s crushing style in 1976 at the summit of Mt. St. Helens may not have caused the 1980 blowout, but one thing is for sure: if this OG is still wearing this jacket, he is in need of a new one!
Mountain Hard Wear scores major points for using Strutta's contest platform to not only promote their new product but to give back to charity! Entrants gained a 50$ credit towards Mountain Hard Wear’s new DRY Q. Elite Jacket after pledging to donate their old jacket to charities such as the Salvation Army. 90 jackets have already been pledged and with 5 weeks left to submit, we’re hoping many more are donated!
Contest: Best Friends Pet Care: Nippin at Your Nose Winter Pet Photo Contest
Entry: Fun with Snowball Joan Clancy.
Winter here in Vancouver isn't the most fun season. In fact, people leave the dark and dreary city for pina coladas and bikinis elsewhere. If we could all love winter as much as Timmy, Vancouver winters might be al lot more pleasurable. Keep playing, Timmy!
Best Friends Pet Care have successfully cracked the code on generating lots of quality content. The key to this problem is inviting your fans to submit photos of things they subjectively think are cute. In just 7 days the Nippin At Your Nose photo contest generated 240 quality photo entries with more to come in the next 5 weeks. Best Friends Pet Care gave their fans a reason to share, which is why this contest is a success!
Contest: GLOBETROTTER NATION H.O.R.S.E Video Contest
Entry: Amazing Layup Into Full Court Kick Shot by Brad Marlow
Unfortunately Brad wasn’t chosen to challenge the Globetrotters, but that's OK, we'd recruit him any day, "Pass the ball to Brad!" would be our team cheer, followed by "Drinks on Brad!" after the win!
Brad's entry was one of the many amazing video entries submitted to Globe Trotter Nation’s H.O.R.S.E video contest. The beauty of Strutta-powered promotions lies in its flexibility. There are tons of ways to tailor customer engagement efforts. Globetrotter dialled into this opportunity and has already gotten 57 quality video entries challenging them to a game of H.O.R.S.E. With sweet prize incentives and the promise that your entry might me the one challenged each week by a real Globetrotter, this promotion is a winner in our eyes!
What’s a BOOM! AWARD? It’s only the most honourable form of recognition you can get within the Strutta family; it’s about 7 levels above a high-five.
