Now who goes saying that large brands wouldn’t want to test promoting their brand on Facebook? Or lets put it this way, why won’t they get users engaging with their brand via Facebook? Apparently Motorola is interested in knowing how you lost your cell phone and wants you to answer that to participate in its competition, which if you are lucky and your story impressive enough can get you one of the five CLIQ smartphones it is giving away, here.
What it simply requires you to do is take advantage of all the countless updates you make on the social network. The interesting part is you don’t have to be a fan of Motorola on its homepage but what’s interesting is the fact that it has been titles specifically for Facebook users. Now that makes it something exclusive for the addicts of the social networks and the contest isn’t asking you much to do and this would actually push number of fans on is Facebook Fan Page. All that is to be done is to fill in the information about yourself along with sharing what was the craziest thing that ever happened to your phone in no more than a thousand characters. Sounds very easy and it surely is.
Oh it reminds me of an incident in Finland when I was at MindTrek and one of our dear and much famed blogger Zee happened to lose his iPhone. The crazy part, he had no idea where he lost it. Does that make him a potential winner to this? Other than it just makes the point even clearer that the power of social networks continue to rise and brands see them as a powerful mean to promote their brands more virally. And I get this is just beginning to happen.
