Jim Sigel Automotive in Grants Pass, Gives Away American Idol Tickets to Lucky Facebook Fan

Social media for Jim Sigel Automotive customers is paying off after the Grants Pass dealership gives away some great prizes to their followers.

Grants Pass, OR, April 25, 2012 --(PR.com)-- It is no surprise that social media has become the “go-to” outlet for people and businesses to market and create their brand online. The newest marketing tactic within the social media channels is to provide contests and giveaways for fans and followers. Jim Sigel Automotive recently jumped on that idea and hosted an American Idol giveaway on their Facebook page, and the results proved the impressiveness of social media marketing.

Facebook has grown to an astonishing 800 million users at the beginning of 2012, and continues adding on average of about 200 more users per year. Among these users, 56% of them say they are more likely to recommend a certain brand or business after having become a fan of their page on Facebook.

Knowing the importance of social media in today’s society, Jim Sigel Automotive created their brand online with a Facebook and Twitter account. But noticed that simply creating the pages would not bring in the customer interaction they were wanting. So they came up with an amazing contest that people could not pass up.

The contest offered prizes including one set of two Mt. Ashland lift tickets, a $50 gift certificate to Arthurs at Eagle Point, a $25 gift certificate to Bella Union in Jacksonville, two sets of passes for reserved seating and lawn seating at a Britt Festival event, and the grand prize – 2 VIP passes to a live taping of American Idol in Los Angeles. Overall, Jim Sigel Automotive received 135 new “likes” and saw a large increase in page views for their Facebook page.

The winner of the American Idol passes has claimed their prize, and they will be attending the live taping on Thursday, May 17th in Los Angeles, California.

Many of the prizes, including the American Idol passes, were co-sponsored through a local affiliate KMVU-DT-FOX 26 Medford.
