Run a sweepstakes where you ask people to post photos on Instagram or your Facebook page of why they deserve a vacation. Randomly select your winner and send them on the trip they deserve!
  3. Poolside with Pinterest Sweepstakes: Create a Poolside board on your brand’s Pinterest page and share original photos and ideas for incorporating your brand into a pool party. Then encourage people to share the photos and use a unique promotion hashtag to track shares as sweepstakes entries. Winner gets a real life pool party!
