Rafflecopter: The best times to run raffles and giveaways

Rafflecopter is the world’s easiest way to run a giveaway.” Especially on social media, raffles are a great way to encourage and reward engagement as well as, possibly, increase followers or subscribers.

I’ve run two giveaways in the past year and have been really satisfied with the experience. I’ve kept things pretty simple by asking for Facebook Likes, Twitter follows, tweets and e-newsletter sign-ups, in return for packages of freebies designed for chefs, commuters, athletic folks, teachers, and anyone interested in a free baseball cap, coffee mug, etc.

The only difficulty was in timing messages so the word got out at the right times to the right people. This infographic supports the data I gathered, but also fully backs it up with 50,000,000 other data points. Enjoy!
