Launch an interactive social media contest.

Hit play and the Tool will randomly pick a winner from all users who have messaged the wall.  

Winner Preview

  • To preview the winner, click ‘Draw a new winner’. 
  • Click Play to start the contest and launch a virtual countdown on the social wall.
  • If the winner selected is inapproprate, click "Draw a new winner" until you find a winner you're happy with.

If you have manually launched the Contest, you must click Stop for your social wall to resume.

Adjust the Contests in the following ways:

Settings

  • Email to send contest results - send details of the winner to yourself or social media team for follow up.
  • Contest Display  - Choose between the Wheel that spins usernames, or the Mosaic which shuffles profile pics.
  • Block Previous Winners -  so they can't win more than once
  • Countdown - Adjust the countdown timer - between 5 and 60 seconds.
  • Winner Message -  Change the wording on the announcement.  

Be sure to Apply anytime you make adjustments.

Scheduling

  • Set the Contest to launch itself at specific times and/or intervals.

Enter a start time, duration and frequency then Apply.

Filtering

  • Users to exclude - Add specific usernames, separated with a space, to exclude them from the contest.  Note: previous winners will automatically be added to this list if already set under Settings.
  • Sources to Use -  Restrict winners to those who've used a specific social network.
  • Tags to use -  If you have Tagged messages in Moderation or Message Review you can select for a winner to be chosen from all users with that Tag(s). Try it for things like selfie competitions (so only users who've shared "selfies" are entered), or to manually select a winner.

Be sure to Apply anytime you are making adjustments.
