Introducing UpViral
For those of you that aren’t familiar with UpViral, I’ll introduce it to you through this review. UpViral is a cloud-based tool for creating viral competitions, giveaways, and sweepstakes. It can basically help you expand your customer base and increase your profit.
How to use it?
The main selling proposition of UpViral is to create viral referral marketing campaign. You can do this by letting your customers or subscribers do your marketing for you by letting them advertise your product or website. If you have the right kind of customer base, you can have an army of fans sharing your website in order to collect points which can later on be used for getting free gifts. Upviral makes doing this very easy. It supports the main social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest and LinkedIn.
The logic of this is quite compelling since your business has the chance to go viral and the customers who shared it will get a prize. It’s a win-win situation. However, if you don’t have a great product to start off with, then it’ll be difficult for you to gain traction with the viral effect.
What can UpViral do for me?
You can use UpViral to grow your business in numerous ways. Here are a few ideas:
- Award your leads points for sharing your proposal on social media. Points collected unlock your offers and you can decide what the points will be used for. With UpViral, you get full control of the system.
- Run your own contests. Manage your leads and explain that they have a higher chance of winning if they get more friends to sign up for no cost at all.
- One of the most practical aspects of UpViral is that it can integrate into your existing campaign of web pages and lead generating funnels.
- UpViral has an automated system which will allow you to automatically follow up with your leads.
- The greatest thing about UpViral is that it delivers rewards automatically as soon as your leads collect enough points.
Advantages of using UpViral
