Creating a "Best of" Online Campaign

<p>One of the neatest and surprisingly easiest ways we’ve seen to engage with your local community is to offer a “Best of” campaign on your radio station website. These are created for your listeners to submit and/or vote on their favorite local businesses like restaurants, auto service shops, coffee shops, best pizza, etc. It’s sure to generate a buzz on-air and through social channels… not to mention revenue.</p> <p>We're joined by Michael Brannon, Executive Video President for <a href="https://www.radioalabama.net/" target="_blank">Radio Alabama</a>.&nbsp; They have several radio stations across Alabama as well as news and sports websites.&nbsp; Each year they run a popular "Best of the Coosa Valley" campaign.&nbsp; <a href="" target="_blank">Check it out here.</a></p> <p>Need a list of categories to start with? <a href="https://www.skyrocketradio.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/BestofCategories.pdf" target="_blank">Download this PDF</a>.</p> <p><strong>Steps for creating your online "Best of" campaign:</strong></p> <p>#1 Create a form for business submissions.<br> #2 Create the “Best Of” page for the information, sponsors, and the call for submissions form.<br> #3 Tabulate the submissions.<br> #4 Create a voting form or polls.<br> #5 Replace the submissions form with the voting form/polls on your “Best of” page.<br> #6 Display the results &amp; promote the winners.<br> <br> We go more in-depth with our steps at <a href="https://www.skyrocketradio.com/podcast/creating-a-best-of-campaign" target="_blank">https://www.skyrocketradio.com/podcast/creating-a-best-of-campaign</a>.</p> <p>This kind of promotion will surely generate a large influx of visitors, so ensure you have a proper hosting provider to handle the load.&nbsp; Need help with the first steps?&nbsp; <a href="https://www.skyrocketradio.com/contact">Reach out to us</a>.</p>
