Getting giffgaff noticed - simple people powered marketing tips

[ Edited ]

We need your help - we've thrown together a few simple ways for you to help spread the good giffgaff word. Feel free to comment an add your own ideas!

 

YouTube:

We've got a YouTube TV channel youtube.com/giffgaffTV - plus check out all the Toolhire videos, that'll help get our views up .... and if you like one of the vids, rate them (it'll help the producer of the toohire video win £5k)

Facebook:

Join us on facebook facebook.com/giffgaffmobile interact with other fans, plus get updates and exclusive facebook competition details

 

Shamelessly promote us through your status updates:

  • Copy one of our toolhire pics and update your profile picture (maybe the gimp)
  • Update your status with a link to one of your favourite Toolhire videos.

Twitter

We're on twitter twitter.com/giffgaff - we tweet about mobile happenings, competitions, Beaconsfield office updates and sillyness.

 

  • Ask your followers to retweet
  • Look out for #giffgaff5K, they're being used by our Toolhire'ees to promote their videos - if you like their vid, retweet their message to your followers
  • Do you know a celeb? Get them to push on your tweets to a larger audience
  • Do you follow any journalists on Twitter? Find some and tell them what you’re up to

 

Blogs

Many of you have already included us in your blogs - which often get picked up in google alerts - again helps to spread the word to randoms.

 

Forums

Again, many of you have already mentioned giffgaff on the ofther forums you're contributing to. Not that we're suggesting you shamelessly promote giffgaff on these (that's bad manners), but where appropriate, doesn't hurt to name drop.

 

Myspace

No, we don’t really use MySpace any more either. But if, for some reason, you have hundreds of friends left over from your teen years, update your page with links back to giffgaff.

 

 

That's enough for now - I'm sure you've got plenty of ideas.... feel free to add your comments and ideas

 

 

Note: If someone has answered your question in 'Ask the community', please mark it as 'accepted solution’, then we know you're sorted

Re: Getting giffgaff noticed - simple people powered marketing tips

There's still a lot of people using myspace and I use to do advertising for a band and was wondering if I could start a giffgaff myspace page and are they any rules with this?

 

Many Thanks
