Tweeting the Pre-Holiday Facebook: Game of Like Event
On October 18, 2011, a new game was launched on Facebook by Idea Girl Media and More In Media (right here). The game is underway and will last 10 full days. It will not only connect Facebook Page to Facebook Page, but Facebook Page admin to Facebook Page admin. More importantly, it will also propel those new to social media to the next level of engagement, knowledge and social media strategy.
It is much more than a simple: ‘I like you, now you like me’ game mentality. The Game of Like is set up so players will gain new skills, apply newly learned social media techniques and make new business connections.
Both myself, and Keri Jaehnig of Idea Girl Media, are giving daily tips on how to use available social media platforms to promote the #gameoflike as well as the Facebook Pages. There are some great early achievers and players in the game who are taking it to the next level,; stepping out of their comfort zone and doing social media right. We are proud coaches!
Today’s video post concentrated on the use of Twitter.
Each day a Game of Like player uses the #gameoflike hashtag in a tweet, they get 1 point. This will lead players to earn up to 10 easy points if done correctly.
When tallying the daily tweet points, I noticed only about 10% of players are using Twitter to spread the word about the Game of Like.
Does it mean many players simply do not care to connect on any other paltform besides Facebook?
Does it mean many players are not aware of the points being awarded for tweets with the #gameoflike hashtag?
OR
Does it mean many players do not know how to get on Twitter or what to do once they are on?
CO-HOST CHALLENGE:
To find out why so relatively few people are using this Twitter opportunity to get easy points in the game.
Step 1: Re-post the point system for the game of like.
Step 2: Provide players with tools to send a tweet.
Step 3: Commend those who do use twitter and reward accordingly.
CO-HOST SOLUTION:
Get players to…
Step 1: Understand the Game of Like Point System
Step 2: Watch the video in this blog post.
Step 3: Be on the lookout for a *Twitter Tweet Special* to be posted sometime on Sunday October 23.
Will it work?
We are confident in our players’ abilities to embrace and enthusiastically use Twitter to further their social media campaign.
“Get your Twitter ready and tweet your #gameoflike enthusiasm to the world.”
We are watching.

Dorien,
Very well stated – The video should be helpful for anyone new to Twitter.
It’s been so fun getting to know new people, and watching some of the players explore and find new confidence!
Looking forward to cooking up some groovy stuff for the 23rd…….
