These tips actually depends on many factors including type of brand, market and target customers. In one of my research on financial services in Nigeria, we discovered banks use 'market storm'. This is when the banks goes to the market with their branded t shirt, carry music and engage with market people. This was a marketing strategy that many people in Europe may not understand. I was told to explain the concept and ultimately they found it different because often no open markets but indoor shopping mall, loud music not allowed and people go on their way. So while I can say market storm is a <span style="font-family: Cabin;">ot-so-well-known tips on marketing communication, it can be relatively used. </span><br>
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
