$5000 John Chow dot Com Clickbooth Twitter Contest

written by John Chow on June 3, 2009

You know Twitter is becoming an importing part of marketing when companies are willing to invest a substantial sum of money on it. Take for example, the Twitter contest Clickbooth and I just started. We have $5,000 of prizes up for grab and the only thing you have to do to enter is to follow us and retweet a tweet.

Clickbooth currently have about 2,500 Followers. Their goal is to at least double this within the two months. The more followers they get, the more prizes they’ll give out, and the better the prizes are.

Winners will have a choice of two different prizes depending on the Tier that Clickbooth hits at the end of the contest. Once we hit each tier, we will give away the prize of that tier and the ones below it (e.g. If Clickbooth hit 3,500 followers, we will give away the Cannon HD Camcorder and an Amazon Kindle) If every tier is hit, we will give away all the prizes (4 winners).

Tier 1 Prize

3,000 Followers (1 winner)
If we hit that tier, we will be giving away either an Amazon Kindle 2 + $50 Amazon Gift Card or a 32GB iPod Touch +$50 iTunes Gift Card

Tier 2 Prize

3,500 Followers (1 winner)
If we hit that tier, we will also be giving away either a Sony PS3 plus Sharp 32” LCD HDTV or a Canon VIXIA HFS100 HD Flash Memory Camcorder

Tier 3 Prize

5,000 Followers (1 winner)
If we hit that tier, we will also be giving away either a 24” iMac or a Trip for two to Las Vegas

Tier 4 Prize

10,000 Followers (1 winner)
If we hit that tier, we will also be giving away either a 250cc Stealth 4 Stroke Full Size Sport ATV or a 15” Macbook Pro

How to Enter:

Follow @JohnChow
Follow @Clickbooth
Send the following Tweet to your followers:

I’ve just entered to win a $5000 Twitter contest! Just follow @JohnChow and @clickbooth and RT. http://xr.com/clickbooth

A contest doesn’t get much simpler than that. The winners will be drawn during the first week of August. We have that long to push Clickbooth to 10,000 followers and make all the prizes available. I think we can do it. Good luck and go enter now!

John Chow June 3, 2009 at 10:59 am: I’ve changed it. Hit refresh.

Alex June 3, 2009 at 10:59 am

Did you realise that that tweet is over 140 chars?

Tyler June 3, 2009 at 11:00 am

Should check to see how many characters you want to have us send out. It’s greater than 140.

Just entered to win an Ipod Touch, MB Pro and a Trip for 2 to Vegas. Just follow @JohnChow and @clickbooth and RT. http://xr.com/clickbooth

Is what I sent out instead.

We are so excited to get this contest up and running! For us, Twitter is not only a great marketing tool, but an important communication tool as well. We are constantly using it to stay in contact with our current publishers, meet new people in the industry, and as a way to educate anyone and everyone on all of the new and exciting things happening in the industry, as well as within our company.

That is why we decided to do something fun and run a contest where we could expand our reach to people in the industry and also give away some cool prizes in the process. We look forward to meeting all of our new Followers, and if any one has any questions or feedback, feel free to send me an email at Eric@clickbooth.com.

Clickbooth is about to reach the 3000 mark already. I bet Clickbooth will reach 10,000 within this month. The contest duration is quite long. It will all depend on your luck as there is only one prize.

I assume the winning chances will be something near 1:5000 (may be more bad)

Eric Clickbooth June 5, 2009 at 10:41 am: If we reach 10,000 followers within the 2 months, there will be 4 prizes up for grabs not 1
