Contests in real time, why not?
Throughout the last post, we have discovered different ways to involve the audience in our events. For example, we can create social walls or interactive panels. In this occasion, we will show you the best solution for events where vote is held to choose a winner. Thanks to this solution, the assistants can choose the winners through a voting system via Twitter. Creating a ranking according to the number of mentions will encourage the audience to keep tweeting during the event. What is more, the hashtag of the event will gain huge exposure by spreading the conversation.

From Tweet Binder, we encourage you to integrate a voting system into your event. As a conclusion, you will increase the participation. Moreover, the audience will feel as an important part of the decision. It is our mission to give exposure to their opinion and make them feel relevant. Sometimes, it may be the only criteria. In others, it may support the jury’s decision.
Voting system powered by Tweet Binder
Creating a voting system is really easy with Tweet Binder. It is very simple thanks to the unique Tweet Binder technology. Remember that our solution for events allows you to create binders within a hashtag collection. It depends on whether the candidates are known in advance or the ranking is generated in a natural way. In any case, our team will take care of everything. First, we will create the collection (we can analyze any hashtag, term or account or combinations). Then, we will create the binders or display the user ranking depending on the criteria.
Voting system with binders
Tweet Binder can create one binder for each contestant. All the mentions will appear in real time. For that reason, everybody can see how it is going and redouble their efforts in case they want to change it. Last month we enjoyed the #ReciclandoVersosMadrid battle. In this event, 8 young rappers had to improvise with terms related to recycling. The idea was clear. Moving the battle to Twitter. The ranking showed the rappers based on the number of mentions. The attendees had to mention their favorite MC to be placed first in the ranking and win the battle. The first one won the battle, you can learn more here.

Voting system with rankings
We can display the user ranking to encourage the vote. It is one of the most successful solution for events. It is possible to choose the criteria (most active users, most mentioned, most popular…). You choose the parameters and we create the ranking. For example, we created this social wall for the #ChivasVenture contest in Colombia. In that case, the result of the social wall was taken into account by the jury but it was not the only criteria.
