Compendium has an awesome contest coming up- have you heard about it? Our Marketing department is giving away $1000 to the winner of a raffle drawing in December. Raffle entries are created every time one of our bloggers posts a new entry. There will be a drawing on December 18th and the winner will receive $500 for themselves and $500 for their blogging team (given to the admin). The $500 for the blogging team can be used to motivate and encourage that team to blog throughout the year.
Contests are a great way to keep your team motivated. As I blogged about earlier this month, our marketing department just sponsored a contest where the department with the most posts that month received a free lunch. I don’t know the exact stats from that competition, but I do know that I posted more content than any other month I have been here.
Have you thought about doing a blogging contest to keep your bloggers motivated? Don’t just rely on Compendium to keep your employees motivated. As a marketer, the blog’s success is in your hands. That means it’s your job to motivate bloggers to write!
Not sure what type of contest/incentive to have, try these ideas. I included a cost to show you that motivating your employees can really be cheap, but the benefits are tremendous!
