    Illume seems best to use for holidays, special occasions, and events, like birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, corporate or leadership development retreats, etc. It's less appropriate for cases where you don't have at least a few people to contribute to a card—it's still possible to create and send a card with only one or two contributors, but the tool's designed for groups and teams and allows unlimited contribution

    Rafflecopter
    • Rafflecopter helps to connect our business with our clients outside of clinic.
    • Rafflecopter allows the ability for our clients to spread the word about our clinic through our social media efforts.
    • Rafflecopter truly lets us see how successful we are with our clients, especially because if our patients were not truly satisfied with our services, then they would not want to take part in the giveaways and promotions that we run through Rafflecopter.

    Rafflecopter
    I think not that the problem was with Rafflecopter, but rather our company and it's approach to Social Media. Being a conservative B2B company in the manufacturing / safety industry doesn't, at this time, offer us many "social" connections that leads to sale/brand awareness. I think we might be better served on a different social network, say LinkedIn. On a personal note, it was a pleasure using Rafflecopter. Easy, fast, cheap and I can see how it can be hugely effective to a social media campaign for those that are in a different industry than the one I work in. I will certainly be recommending the product to my friends and other businesses that are more appropriately served by Rafflecopter.

    Rafflecopter is widely used and people have usually heard of it before. The other way we coordinate giveaways is to have a. spreadsheet with all the entries. Then use Google's random number generator which correlates to one of the rows in the spreadsheet which would be our winner

    • Rafflecopter helped the brands I was working on start implementing a social media strategy because of the consistent results I saw.
    • The widget helped increase engagement on Twitter by using the customized tweet forum.
