), an innovative social media marketing software company, today announced public availability of its next-generation marketing campaign tools for Facebook. Designed for retailers, brands and agencies, the new apps enable interactive contests, games, polls and exclusive offers on Facebook, all in a white-label, branded experience.
As a next-generation platform, Offerpop provides tools that help marketers run fresh, high-impact campaigns aligned with the grain of consumers’ natural behavior on Facebook. Tapping Facebook’s social plug-ins and Open Graph API, Offerpop gives marketers a smart way to boost brand engagement and word-of-mouth through simple, frictionless social gestures like commenting. Offerpop for Facebook also enables fan-gated campaigns, so marketers can choose to run any campaign open to the public, or as a fan-gated program where people must ‘Like’ the company page in order to participate.
“We’ve seen some great results from the programs that our customers have run during our Facebook beta program. The level of participation in some campaigns is off the charts and it’s clear that brands and agencies appreciate our white-label approach,” said Offerpop co-founder Wendell Lansford.
New Facebook AppsJoining Offerpop’s suite of Twitter apps, Offerpop for Facebook includes the following apps:
Tug of War can be used for interactive games, two-way polls, and contests, where users vote for a ‘side’ simply by commenting, and their vote gets posted for other participants and their friends to see. Campaign managers get reports on views, ‘Likes,’ comments and ‘Shares’ and a ‘click to purchase’ option supports showdowns between favorite products, with a link to purchase integrated into the experience. Tug of War is a fresh and versatile way for retailers and brands to attract new fans and generate word-of-mouth.
Photo Contest makes it easy to design and execute programs where fans share, review and vote on photos, based on any theme. Ideal for fan-sourcing content, talent searches and giveaways, the app lets users vote simply by commenting – with no need to grant permissions to an app to participate. Photo Contest is a fun way to engage your community and build brand awareness.
Exclusive allows marketers to share fan-gated offers or content, or enable private sales for fans, in a tab on their company’s fan page. Users simply click ‘Like’ to unlock the exclusive offer, which can be delivered as links, multi-use offer codes, unique single-use offer codes, or printable coupons. Built on the ‘Like’ feature, Exclusive is a great way to reward loyal fans – and recruit new ones.
