Each year, every day, technology continues to advance. We find new and better ways to streamline our lives — ways to meet our goals. For many brands, these goals are to acquire, retain and engage consumers. In the past, brands have turned to a giveaway service. Presently, a modern giveaway service is their best option. Why? New technology.

The automobile, personal computers and television have simplified living. Geo-fencing, in-app integration and meme generators have simplified and driven deep engagement, bringing digital, trackable touchpoints closer to the consumer.

Geo-Fencing

Recent innovations in GPS technology are creating new techniques by which to connect a consumer with your sweepstakes or contest promotion.

Through geo-fencing, GPS or short-wave wireless, consumers’ smartphones can communicate with a beacon, triggering a push notification. A brand can use their physical locations to reach their target when — and where — it’s relevant.

In-App Integration

In-app integration brings your promotion to your consumer at their convenience. Your promotion exists natively within your existing app — no update necessary — driving re-engagement and extending average session time and duration.

Comfortably, your consumer can access and interact with your sweepstakes or contest with the push of a button. This advance in giveaway service technology has made participation easier for both the customer and brand. 

Meme Generator

Surf the web for an hour and you’ll find at least a dozen memes. They’re a vehicle for the latest social trends. With a meme generator in your sweepstakes or contest, they accelerate how people communicate your promotion while adding a little extra fun.

Freeing your participants’ creativity, captioned photos of brand-relevant content can spread rapidly across popular social media platforms.

Realtime Media has implemented these services into giveaways we’ve run, with success. Through geo-fencing, in-app integration and meme generators, we’ve continued to pioneer digital promotions on the cutting edge, at the lowest cost.
