While you may not have the budget of a large corporation, your Facebook Contest should look like you do.

Contest Runner will create and install a quality Facebook Contest for you, at an affordable price.

The results of such a contest? New Facebook Fans and E-Mail Leads who want to buy what you’re selling.

AS A BONUS, you’ll also get our popular “Make Your Facebook Contest A Success” PDF Pack for FREE. It’s a $49 value, and you can read more about it below.

Messages sent via e-mail will convert more sales than those posted on Facebook.

This is why, in addition to increasing your Facebook Fan numbers, Contest Runner collects the e-mail addresses of people interested in your product.

This allows you to reach out to your potential customers for months, even years, after your contest is complete.

Contest Runner – Basic

Don’t let “Basic” fool you. The Contest Runner Basic Package is all you need to run a successful Facebook Contest.

It is a single page Contest that comes with a Fan Gate option.

It’s short. It’s to the point. Customers love it.

Contest Runner – Premium

Perfect for promoting your business, or an event, our “Premium” Package gets you more than a Facebook Contest. It gets you a tabbed microsite that customers can navigate like a mini-website.

In addition to the tabs, Premium packages come with the option of more contest fields (address, phone number, age, etc.). The information gathered will tell you more about your clients, and will provide you with more ways to contact them for future promotions (Postcards, anyone?).

Contest Runner – Custom

Custom Packages come in all shapes and sizes. If there’s something you want for your Contest that you don’t see in our Basic or Premium Packages, we will do it for you.

Many want Custom Tab options (Twitter Feeds, Video, E-Mail Newsletter Sign Up, Polls, etc.) when they select a Custom Package, others simply want graphic design included that will match their web site.

Fan Gates

What is a Fan Gate? It’s a mechanism we use to switch up images, or content, after someone hits the “Like” button on your Facebook Page. We use them to make sure people “Like” your page before they can enter your contest. (The “Basic Contest” video above shows how a Fan Gate works).

Fan Gates are a great way to increase Facebook Fans, which is why they are included with each of our Contest Runner packages.

Custom Icons

This one is a rare treat. Most Contest Creators simply use template icons, or, even, insert icons with their own logo. At Contest Runner, we provide Custom Icons, making your contest, and your business, look professionally branded.

Check out the video below to see this attention to detail in action.

Professional Design

Other contest creators either make you design your contest yourself, or they create ugly text-based pages for you. What does it say about your business when you run cheap looking Facebook contests?

At Contest Runner, we have graphic designers ready to make your Facebook Contest look worthy of your business.

Secure Contests

Due to privacy concerns, many are using Facebook’s new “Secure browsing” feature. This is great until they come to a Facebook Contest or Application that isn’t built securely. When that happens, they get a warning, like the one below:

Contest Runner contests are built securely. This means that people using secure browsing, or normal browsing, will have an uninterrupted and pleasant experience when they come to your Facebook page.

Entry Alert

Want to know how many people have entered your contest? Simply check the secret counter on your contest page. What makes it a secret? Only you can see it. Shhhh.

As an additional option (at no extra charge), we can send you automatic e-mail alerts every time someone enters.

.CSV Lead File

Love a good spreadsheet? When your contest comes to an end, we will send you a beautiful .CSV file full of new leads.

Names, e-mails, addresses, phone numbers, age, income levels. The information collected is considered to be marketing gold.

Rules

Facebook requires that anyone running a contest include rules and guidelines that adhere to Facebook’s policies. These policies are ever-changing.

Contest Runner keeps up with Facebook’s policies, and includes Official Rules and Guidelines with every contest provided.

We want to make sure that your contest is a success, which is why we include our “Make Your Facebook Contest a Success” PDF Pack for FREE (a $49 value!).

Learn about prizes that generate the best leads, discover low-cost (and free) options to promote your contest, and find ways to market to the many leads you gained.

You have a Facebook Contest. Now what? Contest Runner provides you with “15 Ways to Promote your Contest”.

You don’t need to use all 15 techniques, but, if you use a few, your contest will be successful. And, of course, a successful contest means more Facebook Fans and Leads. More Fans and Leads mean more potential clients.

So, promote, promote, promote. It will pay off in the end (particularly because many of our suggestions are FREE!).

Did you know some Facebook Contests can get you banned from Facebook?

Facebook changes its contest rules all the time. Because of this, people often end up running contests that can get them banned from Facebook. Imagine, you run a “Like this page to be entered to win an iPad” contest, you get 2000 new fans, and BAM, Facebook shuts you down.

Once your Contest Runner contest is complete, you will have access to more people online than you’ve ever had before. This means news, promotions, launches, and sales will all reach more people. And, of course, reaching more people means creating more customers.

Quite simply, our low-cost contest solutions will bring you more business. You do little more than select a prize and provide us with a logo. We take care of the rest. Knowing that, wouldn’t today be the perfect day to get your Contest Running?
