Running a simple contest in a community isn’t complicated. Here’s what you need to decide: Timeline: Contest duration and the date winners will be announced. Prize pool: Total prizes and number of winners. Contest mechanics: The core activity and judging criteria. Judges: Who will select the winners. Promotion: Visual assets (banners, post covers) and accompanying texts. Execution plan: A clear schedule of what to publish and when. It might seem complex at first glance - but let me show you a real example: Timeline: The contest runs from December 12 to December 17. Winners are announced on December 20. Prizes: 10 limited-edition NFTs from the project team. 5 winners. Mechanics: Followers create or generate artworks themed around the project, incorporating Christmas aesthetics. Judges: The project team votes on submissions. Promotion: We order promo banners, cover images for both the announcement post and results post from a designer, and prepare all related copy - including reminder posts. Execution Plan: We simply outline exact publishing dates and content types. ❗️Even the simplest contests help your project gain visibility and meaningfully re-engage your audience.
