To drive brand awareness and foot traffic for their Memorial Day weekend sale, a large mattress manufacturer ran a contest for their Sales Reps to earn Paid Ads that rewarded their top retailers. The contest incentivized Sales Reps to register NEW retailers and increase activity with those that have already registered using tools like automation.
The company kicked off the contest by setting a clear scoring system and objectives for their Sales Reps to follow. The contest ran for two weeks total and awarded two Sales Rep winners based on the following criteria; connecting social accounts, enabling automation, and scheduling posts.
Here’s the breakdown of the scoring system:
Each winner would get $500 in Promoboxx Paid Ad funds to distribute to two retailer accounts of their choosing for the Memorial Day weekend sale.
The first winning Sales Rep engaged 82% of their retailers – this rep had the highest number of accounts and most accounts connected, automated, and posting! The second winner went to the Sales Rep that engaged 100% of their retailers. Every one of them had their social accounts connected, automation turned on, and posted content from the brand – the gold standard!
These two reps selected 2 retailers each, to earn $250 in co-branded Memorial Day ads. These ads ran for 2 weeks leading up to the holiday sale event, targeting consumers within a 15 mile radius of their local business. The ads garnered over 357K impressions across Facebook and Instagram.
The large mattress manufacturer was thrilled that the contest energized and engaged their Sales Rep team, and the results of the contest grew and strengthened their retailer network on Promoboxx.
