In this post, we’ll share different Singles’ Day Marketing Ideas<\/strong> that appeal to\u00a0savvy, single, mobile users. We’ll also take examples from retail brands which have a special appeal for young and single people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Giveaways on social media<\/a> are a great choice as they help you target all your followers – specifically, people genuinely interested in your brand. It is also a great idea if you’re marketing on a budget. Singles Day giveaways can be quick, easy, and effective. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Instagram is a strong choice for your Singles’ Day campaign. The average user is young and relatively affluent<\/b>. Over the last couple of years, thanks to their audience energizing dynamics, Instagram Giveaways<\/a> have become highly popular and even more efficient, as Instagram users are keener than ever to participate in online promotions (yes, that includes Singles Day giveaways, too). You can use profile posts and Stories to share tempting images of your Singles’ Day promotion and prizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Take a look at this great example from Lover Floras. The flower shop took it to Instagram to celebrate Singles’ Day. They ran a short comment-based giveaway <\/b>for anyone who commented on the post and explained their favorite thing about being single. The participants also mentioned their bestie, followed the florist on Instagram and liked the post. <\/p>\n\n\n The organizing brand managed to grow their account, boost social media engagement, and sales with a discount code added to the promotional code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here’s another example from Kyani Europe. The brand decided to give away two self-care bundles right in time for Singles’ Day!<\/p>\n\n\n The entry requirements were the same as in the previous example, however, in this case, the participants tagged the person they would give the second self-care bundle to. It was a great way to strengthen customer relationships<\/b> and reinforce customer loyalty<\/b> as part of the Singles’ Day campaign. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Would you like to launch your own Singles Day giveaway for your social media followers? We’ve created pre-configured templates<\/a> for your Singles Day social media promotions. Download, edit, and publish!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n You should also seriously consider a Twitter Giveaway<\/a>. Although this network has a smaller audience, it offers the most flexibility<\/b> for giveaways. You can ask users to follow you, retweet your posts, reply to you, or even post Tweets with a specific #hashtag and @mention. Twitter Giveaways have very easy entry requirements, therefore they tend to be popular. Quite often they reach bigger audiences than expected, meaning that they achieve the objective of increasing brand exposure<\/b>. <\/p>\n\n\n Here’s an example from a radio channel, which shared a prize for video game fans. To take part, users had to retweet the post and tag a friend. Video games can be a great incentive for Singles Day promotions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Social media giveaways and simple registration forms make it easy for anyone to take part. But you might want to offer your followers more of a challenge or tap into their creativity with a Voting Contest<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, take a look at this Photo Contest from a brand that sells photography gear. They asked users to share their best photos. Then they posted the results in a public gallery so that everyone could view their favorites and vote.<\/p>\n\n\n In return, contestants could win a sophisticated camera drone. This is a great choice for Singles’ Day when many consumers shop for electronics, devices, and new tech. Photo Contests are a fantastic way to collect user-generated content, which is a great technique to build trust. Once the Singles’ Day competition is over you can share the UGC pieces on your social media to increase engagement and loyalty<\/b> of your online community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Remember, Singles’ Day might not be the best time to share experiences and rewards for two. But offering a prize which people can share with their group of friends<\/b> is a fun idea, and very popular with consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Branded mini-games<\/a> continue to gain recognition and social media followers respond positively to gamified marketing campaigns. Use gamification to entertain your audience<\/b> and increase brand engagement<\/b> while also maximizing lead generation<\/b>.<\/p>\n\n\n Here’s an example of a branded Singles’ Day Memory game<\/a> that can be launched by any brand! In this case, the organizing tech brand looked to promote their bestselling products. They shared pictures of their top sellers and challenged their audience to match all pairs as quickly as possible, for a chance to win a gadget of their choice!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Check out this Singles Day Memory DEMO<\/a> and get inspiration for your next campaign.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n One of the greatest challenges of social media marketing is taking users beyond the network. You need a way to contact them and drive sales, outside of Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or YouTube.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So to keep things simple, we recommend an Entry Form Giveaway<\/a>. Offer a desirable prize for Singles Day, and then ask users to share their email contact details<\/b> for a chance to win. Singles’ Day is a great moment to collect sales leads<\/b> for your upcoming campaigns. Here’s an example, perfectly designed to appeal to busy singles on the go!<\/p>\n\n\n Entry Form Giveaways are a great solution for brands working on the Singles’ Day campaigns. You get to incentivize<\/b> your online community, and you also gain new leads<\/b>. To make the contact details even of higher-quality, add a lead qualifying question that will segment the audiences into different groups. Ask for their likes, preferences, and interests, so in the future, you can email them discount codes and offers that they will enjoy and be likely to redeem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We know that consumers today are very deal-conscious<\/b>. They’re looking for added value, rewards, and special offers from their chosen brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can use a coupon promotion<\/a> to share deals, tickets, and even experiences. For example, this cinema offered cheap tickets to anyone who signed up for their email newsletter. Then they added some tension to the promotion by setting a time limit and only sharing a limited number of coupons.<\/p>\n\n\n You could run a coupon offer for Singles’ Day sales, with special deals on specific products. You can also email a $10 or $20 discount voucher, or offer a free gift with all purchases made on a specific date. Think creatively about how you can reward<\/b> and incentivize customers<\/b>, and drive traffic<\/b> to your store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another fun dynamic is a Knowledge Quiz, Personality Quiz or Survey<\/a>. Users don’t have to create their own content, but you still obtain more information and interaction than in a basic giveaway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the example below, a vape tech company shared a survey with their followers. They learnt more about customer opinions and experiences – and offered an in-store discount<\/strong> as the incentive.<\/p>\n\n\n Surveys and quizzes are great techniques to segment your target audience. You don’t only get contact details<\/b> to target in the future, but also you get more insight into the likes and preferences of your new leads<\/b>. Singles’ Day is a great excuse to organize this sort of promotion. Once the participants complete the entry form, you can email them a discount code<\/b> to redeem instore or online. Encourage more sales with limited-time coupons!<\/p>\n\n\n\n As we saw with the sports photo contest above, it’s great to run promotions that speak to single people’s social side<\/b>. One option is a Refer a Friend contest<\/a>. Use the power of word of mouth marketing <\/b>to spread the good news about your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Refer a Friend Giveaways are great to promote your brand, products<\/b>, and events<\/b>. Once your audience shares the recruitment link, they automatically become your brand ambassadors<\/b>, doing all the hard job for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n All these promotions were great examples of how to reward your fans, and show a human side to your brand this Singles’ Day. And by now, it should be clear that you can’t afford to miss out <\/b>on this event. Get started today with a free Easypromos account<\/a>. How will you celebrate the day with your followers?
