CONTEST - "IT'S THE ALL ABOUT ME CONTEST" and Coupon Codes

[Reddhott]

i also like the "get to know" u idea. people can post things about themselves that maybe people dont know. i.e favorite food,movies,anything they may like or dont like.. what ever you choose just make it fun we all love a fun contest!

 

[rsirico]

I am here to learn what you want so I will definitely use "random.org" to pick the winner, I'll figure that out today.
As I mentioned earlier I like a "scavenger hunt" on the site because it will get people to actually pay attention to what I sell and read the text.
The "write a review" is also a good idea because I have only 1 review on the site so far.
"Get to know you" is another great idea.

I'm paying attention to you!

Cat Recipe Contests!!!
(...Are a MUST!!!)​

 

[Uncle]

Just As An FYI:

While I do not speak for the ECF Community as a whole - I would like "You" to know that I for one am very glad to see that "You" are paying attention to everyone's post and are very willing to "hear" everyone suggestions and wants/needs too . . . I know when a Vendor/Suppliers like "yourself" actually does "listen" - it show a lot of the people here in the ECF Community that "You" appreciate them - and it makes "Us" feel just as appreciative of the Vendor/Supplier too . . .

So - THANK YOU ! ! !

AND - Since this is the "IT'S ALL ABOUT ME CONTEST" . . .


Another suggestion about Contests, especially here on ECF . . .

I have noticed over the past few years and - IMO - One of the best things about some Contest are those Vendor/Supplier who come up with a Contest that everyone knows about and come to regularly and are even "famous" for, especially because they are FUN . . . Just As An Example: One Vendor has a Hump Day "Mad-Lib" Contest most every Wednesday . . . Another Vendor has a Contest once a month, where Everyone tries to guess the picture of a person he has Photoshoped . . . Another Vendor Does a specific Holiday or Seasonal Contest where You post Pictures or make a statement that is representative about those themes . . . Another Vendor even does those "Story" themed where they start off with a sentence then people add another sentence to the story line based on what was already posted by other contestants (which can get really crazy) . . . AND - Another Vendor has a Contest during the NFL "Football" Season (And - As a disclaimer, I should mention to "You" that I am a "Contest Helper" there) that people pick an NFL Team and what they think they will Score and whichever Team has the Highest Score that week the person who pick that Team & came closest to that score would win . . .

SO - What I am getting at, is that - IMO - it would be Really GREAT if Ya' could find a Contest that "YOU" really want to do and that is interesting for "YOU" to want to keep running for awhile, since I do believe it would help keep people interested in not only the Contest - but what "You" offer, keep your thread moving along, and maybe even more . . .

Again - Only a Suggestion and something to think about, especially for the future too . . .


Personal Note: While more then enough people really like the "scavenger hunt" concept for a contest . . . Nope - NA DA - Not Happening . . . NOT for "Me" - I will wait until "You" have something else available to play along - like coming up with a recipe for cooking "Felines" . . . I'm Allergic To All "Felines" Anyway . . . Just Sayin' . . .


EDIT: Oh - Yea . . No Spellin' or Gramer Contest - For "Me" - Either . . .

Nope - NA DA - Not Happening . . . ​

I like the story/ picture/joke threads where the idea is to make people laugh. Also I personally hardly ever bother with facebook contrests where you are expected to like, then share, then invite everyone you know to do the same just to get a $10 gift certificate to a site with limited inventory that can easily be found cheaper without having to order from overseas.

A contest should be fun to participants, but should also increase your company's ranking in google search hits and increase sales. Here's a couple of thoughts to 2 ideas that have already been proposed.

-"find a hidden thing in the website contest" - Before implementing something like this, I would recommend talking to your web hosting company first. This type of contest would bring vapors to your site, but there is also the possibility of how this could impact your google search ranking. Depending on the network bandwidth of your site, too many people hitting your site at once could impact performance. At one time google had stated that "page load time" for a website can directly correlate to search engine ranking.

-Easter egg search on ecf. This type of contest gets people involved and can increase views to specific forums. Again, this may be used to increase your company's google search ranking in ecf forums. Currently if I google the eCigVapeUSA, ECF threads are in the first hit. Your actual website is the 5th google hit.
Speak to your web hosting company.

I really like this because I can only imagine how off the wall it can become

Another Vendor even does those "Story" themed where they start off with a sentence then people add another sentence to the story line based on what was already posted by other contestants (which can get really crazy)

carriesal, thanks for that screen shot, I'm amazed.

NP...contests are great, but only if they help increase your business.

Competitive prices and quality and quantity of choices in products along with great customer service sells me everytime

 

[rsirico]

On that note for those that have been to my site - what do you think about the product mix and pricing?

 

[OptimusPrimerib]

I appreciate Trivia contests alot, Specifically Still frames of obscure movies and/or tv series, and we have to guess what movie or series it is. I dont think we see enough of these. you give people til a certain date to answer and everyone who answered correctly goes into the random generator, you get one answer, if you edit your post youre disqualified. BOOM!

 

[vvaappeerr]

I enjoy Word Association, posting pictures or videos with a theme, a guessing game such as "How many _____ are in the jar?", Scavenger Hunts, Raffle-type things that eliminate a group at a time....

I can't wait to see what you come up with. Best of luck to you!

 

[Reddhott]

nice site. easy to navigate also. id like to see a few more mech mods and also some more drip tips i love tips!! im more on colors tho. also maybe some more ego type like the twists or spinners and more colors!!

On that note for those that have been to my site - what do you think about the product mix and pricing?

 

[Lynzy]

On that note for those that have been to my site - what do you think about the product mix and pricing?

Overall good, the mix is nice and the pricing is pretty much in line with what other vendors are also selling. AND - Since you asked, even though "You" are just starting out - there are just a few things I would suggest.

Accessories: There should be other items, such as: Adapters, Other Styles/Colors of Drip Tips (Although, I already "like" the ones "You" have), Battery Carry Cases and other Equipment Carry Cases, APV Stands, and maybe even repalcement parts for the equipment "You" sell.

Batteries and Chargers: More Variety of Batteries & Chargers, including batteries from EFest, AW, and Panasonic (only to name 3 companies). Also, many people are still using the smaller batteries like eGo's & KR808-D1 (Cig Style, 350mah, 480mah, 650mah, 900mah, 1100mah, 1300mah) and the Twist/VV. As for Chargers, the ones with 4 bays and LCD Screen at reasonable prices would be good.

Now - I am not into Mechanical Mods or RDA/RBA, so I will leave that to someone else to tell you about.

AND - For the rest of the equipment that is being offered on the website, it looks like you have the basics covered, however you may want to consider adding Cartomizers (including those with a "flang" for those who use Pyrex Tanks too) and also some KR808-D1 "stuff" too (see battery suggestion ^ ^ ^ ^) . . .


Hope this is helpful and is what you are looking for . . .

Don't even know if it's possible to do but I think it would be a great idea for a website that caters to beginners. A laymans explanation of the starter kits and why they would benefit the newbie vapor.

Also spin that 360 and have items available that advanced vapors will want and need for their hobby.

Basically you can tier your list selections
Beginners tier
Mid level/average user
Advanced/hobbist

Allows people to easily find items they need and want based on their comfort level and move into more advanced tiers as they learn their way.

I only bring this up because most common issues starting up is best devices for new user or confused by all options grouped together on website.

Possibly some solid starter kits based around what has been found as good kits for beginners here on Ecf.

More options available under starter kits.

More ejuices.

Possibly affiliate yourself with some gourmet ejuice sites that way you increase volume of customers through there website as well as get paid a percentage when people on your page click the banner for said gourmet ejuice sites.

Uncle thanks for taking the time to write that up. I am going to expand what I am selling ASAP. I should have a lot more on the site by mid January.
Good information, thanks again

No Problem - It was "My" Pleasure when I can be helpful . . .
