Contest Prize Ideas for the Ecommerce Industry

Online shoppers are the #1 target market for online contests. They're tech-savvy, heavy social-media users who are comfortable with sharing your contest with friends.

As a result, my #1 recommendation for an ecommerce contest is a bonus entry campaign, in which your winner is decided randomly, but entrants can gain additional entries in return for sharing the contest with their friends. Check out the thumbnails below to see real-world examples of ecommerce bonus entry contests.

Contest Prize Ideas:

11. Your winter line before the holidays
12. Something patriotic around Independence Day
13. Your summer line in late Spring
14. A "his and hers" package for Valentine's Day (or "Just for Him/Her" for Father's/Mother's Day)
15. A package of your products (to maximize the appeal)
16. Black Friday or Cyber Monday product giveaway
17. Summer beach day prize package
18. Partner with a brand with a similar target market give away both your products (Cross-promote to your existing contacts to trade)
19. Free shipping for a year
20. Credit for every friend referred

Contest Prize Ideas for the Men's Fashion Industry

If you're marketing within the men's fashion industry, remember that your target market is often the partners of men - not men themselves.

With this in mind, focus on visual contests (and visual social media platforms to share). Studies show that women are more active on visual social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, etc) than men. As a result, consider photo contests, hashtag contests, referral contests, etc, for your next Valentine's Day or Father's Day contest.

Contest Prize Ideas:

21. Father's Day product giveaway
22. Night out to a concert alongside your product
23. Football jersey alongside your product giveaway
24. BBQ/summer party outfit
25. Accessories (watch, hat, belt, wallet, etc) to finish an outfit
26. Product package: main item + accessories
27. Groomsman package (3 or 4 groomsman gifts)
28. Partner with a barbershop in your area and give a "manly makeover"
29. "Guys trip" getaway with product prize package
30. "Lazy Sunday" product prize package

Contest Prize Ideas for the Fitness Industry

We run more contests for the fitness industry than any other industry (except, perhaps, ecommerce). The industry just lends itself to contests: it's a visual industry with the possibility of easy and clearly valuable prizes.

Plus, the value of a lead is high and follow-up campaigns are often successful.

And, better yet, whenever you give away a free month's subscription, you quickly make your money back when people continue with your gym (as opposed to the single-purchase structure of many other business types).

I can't recommend contests enough for the fitness industry.

Contest prize ideas:

31. 6 months free membership
32. Free personal training
33. Free yoga classes with free mat
34. "Spin with the girls!" - Give away a spin class for 4
35. $50 gift card to the products you sell at your fitness center
36. Free kid's martial arts classes
37. Free workout plan
38. Free healthy eating plan
39. Free 12-month family workout package
40. Free membership - Only give a complete free membership if you're running a bonus entry/referral contest as you'll need to get a lot of prospective members to make your prize worth it.

Contest Prize Ideas for Photography

Photographers have, for a long time, relied on word-of-mouth and references to find success.

Online contests, though, can be the equivalent of word-of-mouth x 100.

A bonus entry contest, where you give entrants additional chances to win when they share and refer their network, are a fantastic way for your business to get dozens of new prospective customers.

Think about it, if you're targeting people for an engagement shoot, the majority of their friends will be around the same age - perfect for a follow-up email that prompts their own shoot down the line.

Contest prize ideas:

41. A wedding package (use a referral contest for this to be sure you get the details of your winner's soon-to-be-married friends!)
42. A family photo shoot built around seasonality
43. Free photo editing with a paid shoot
44. A sexy/boudoir shoot around Valentine's Day
45. A photoshoot for Friend's Day (with costumes)
46. Free framing of photos from a paid photo shoot
47. Free engagement shoot with every wedding package
48. Pregnancy/new baby photo shoot
49. "Girls weekend" with professional photo shoot (partner with a hotel)
50. Partner with a hairdresser or makeup artist to give away a photo shoot

Contest Prize Ideas for the Hospitality/Spa Industry

The hospitality and spa industry have the greatest possibility of their contests going viral, as their prizes are (compared to every other industry in this article) the most valuable.

This is especially true if your hotel or spa teams up with a restaurant or other business to give away a complete weekend experience

My recommendation for the hospitality and spa industry is a straight sweepstakes (rather than one of the more complicated contest types). But remember to get your entrant's contact information. Because your prizes are worth so much, you'll need to convert as many of your entrants as possible to find a positive return on investment.

Top Tip: We had a very successful client use a bonus entry contest to drive reviews. To learn how it was done, book a time to chat with one of our representatives and ask them about it.

Contest prize ideas:

61. 2-Night Stay (hotel)
62. Partner with a restaurant and give a romantic weekend package (hotel)
63. Partner with a spa and give a relaxing weekend package (hotel)
64. Partner with a theme park and give a family weekend package (hotel)
65. Free upgrade to your most expensive room (hotel)
66. Free couple's massage for Valentine's Day (spa)
67. "She deserves it" Mother's day spa day giveaway
68. "Girls Weekend" spa day with hotel stay and dinner
69. Single deep tissue/Swedish massage (give away one per day for a week to increase the perceived chance of winning)
70. Sports therapy session

Contest Prize Ideas for the Restaurant Industry

Contests can be a powerful way to drive people to your restaurant - particularly if you're a newer restaurant wanting to generate a bit of buzz.

Restaurants are also a great partner for hotels, spas and theme parks in your area. If you're struggling for ideas beyond "win a free meal," reach out to a hotel nearby and pitch the idea of a "weekend getaway" package where they give away a two-night stay and you provide a romantic dinner. This will increase the value of your prize considerably and (therefore) the popularity of your contest.

Contest prize ideas:

71. Romantic dinner for two ("Get away from the kids")
72. Dinner for 4 - Name our newest dessert
73. Dinner for 4 - Submit your child's menu design
74. "Dinner and a Movie" with tickets
75. "Just Desserts" 6 vouchers for summer desserts
76. Partner with a hotel and give away a romantic weekend trip
77. A Thanksgiving dinner with all the fixings
78. A Superbowl party pack
79. A $20 gift card
80. Free dessert & bottle of wine with dinner
