good morning gals.

i need some opinions. i want to run another facebook contest to obtain more likes for a business page i run. WE've only done one and that was the cutest baby contest which was very successful. I need another catchy idea to draw more people to the page. Its an artist page.....which offers event planning services, body painting(facepainting, body art, maternity art), full event decor, drawings, etc. I know what can be offered to the winner since there's so many services that are done but i need an idea on what contest type.

If you want to see the page...... facebook.com/abovethemundaneevents or search stevie the artist. maybe itll help cuz i'm stomped on a contest. cutest baby is soooo played out by now.

What can I do next?

Just so you know, running contests on facebook is against the rules and you can actually lose your facebook business page. Of course, it is not very regulated.

What is allowed, if you have another website/blog that you run the contest on, then you can announce it on your facebook page.

Contests that usually work to generate other people to your site, aer ones where the people applying to the contest has to also share. For instance, they have to like your facebook page, then also promote the link on their facebook/twitter/blog as well.

Ideas the people could share for entry could be, worst Christmas present received, biggest party disaster story...

How about working with a charity? For every $ someone donates to a charity of your choosing, if they bring in the receipt, they will receive that much in credit towards your work.
