THE WINNER IS..
Indie Band Coach!
I’m thinking of doing my first giveaway and this video was very helpful. Thanks so much. I agree about loop giveaways; I hate them.
Thank you 😊
How much new followers you are explored with giveaway? How it was?) I also want to do giveaway
мамкин колхозник Because of Covid 19 and because I’ve been so busy, I’ve haven’t tried a giveaway yet.
Thank you so much for this information! I've spent several weeks researching how to actually do a giveaway and nobody is straight forward in the technical aspect! So thank youuuu
No problem Cata! Thank you for stopping by :)
Thank you for the advice! Super helpful! Feeling confident enough to have a giveaway now :)
Awesome! Let me know how it goes, Maribel!
Thanks for the opportunity Alex, subscribed! :)
Of course! Thanks for your support!
Alex, you are truly amazing! Subscribing to your 7 days course was one of the best things I did for my IG account and my confidence as a content creator. I received youк emails late in the evening so the first thing I did in the mornings was reading your super beneficial guide and then applying the tips. THANK YOU!
Wow! That is so nice to hear. I'm so glad they helped!!
Been watching your videos since last and just want to say thank you! I'm just starting a small business and these have been really helpful :)

I totally agree with you about the loop giveaways! I've never entered in any loop giveaway, there really are useless and not a smart strategy to use!

Aw thank you so much Najma, that means a lot!
Wow that was an awesome giveaway you offered! I love that is was so simple to enter. I have seen giveaways that required you to jump through the moon and then share their photo. I don't care for those.
Exactly! Giveaways should really be a simple process. Thanks for watching!
Thank you man ❤❤
You're so welcome, Ashish! 😊
It was very helpful. Thank you so much!

You're very welcome Bwalya!
Great tips thank you so much 💕👌
Thanks for watching, Amanda! ❤️
I absolutely agree with you on your .8. I think a loop giveaways to be such a waste of time and especially if I don’t like the content I don’t want to do it. My numbers are very important to me I want to follow people that I can learn from so I’m so glad I watch this video thank you very much
Thanks for watching and also for providing insight Faiza 😊
Hi Alex! I love the video! Easy to understand and full of great information. Fully understand that loop giveaways can be too much for the followers, but how about the idea of buying something from various company’s and doing the giveaway of those products you have brought? Thanks for the info and for your time!
Thanks for watching Las! You can do a giveaway anyway you want 😊 I would steer clear of buying products yourself however as you don't want to end up being out of pocket!
Great video! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Np! :)
You are awesome, thanks for this!
You're welcome 😊
Thank you so much🤗🤗 pretty helpful
Thank you for watching!
Thanks Alex , very informative.
Happy to help! :)
This video was really helpful! Thank You! 🙏
Glad it was helpful 😊!
Thanks for your succinct and practical tips!
Thanks for watching Diane!
Suscribing because this was great information and worth it!
Thanks for joining me! 🙂
brilliant content!! thank you!
Thank you!
Good info! Thanks for the video!:) you just gained a new subscriber!:)
Thank so much for the sub! 😊
Alex Tooby anytime! Trying to build my channel and your info helped. I tried a giveaway in one of my previous videos but it didn’t do so hot:/
Very helpful video. Thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for stopping by :)
How would you include the “extra entries” into choosing the giveaway winner?
Hi Karlita! I would find a giveaway app to help you with this 😊 There are so many out there so be sure to research and fine one that suits your giveaway style 👍
Such an awesome giveaway!
Yay, can't wait to pick a winner tomorrow!
very helpful. thank you very much
No worries! Thanks for stopping by Amanda 🙂
It's really very helpful for my contest mam
Thank you so much🤗
You are so welcome! Thanks for stopping by 😊
Been following you for ages. I hope to win!
I appreciate your support!!
Thanks for sharing the knowledge. I'm doing giveaway on my online store in Instagram. But, the problem is, I found out that there are some participants who use their second, third, even their parents account to enter the event, and probably there are more than the ones I found out.
How do you prevent or solve that particular problem?
Hi Priskila, Thanks for watching! There are many giveaway apps that can help you with this. I am not sure what would be the best one for you but if you do a quick google I am sure you will find one :)
Thank you so much.
Is there any particular tips for cake give away ?
Hi Jugal! I am afraid I do not have any tips specific for a cake giveaway but it sure sounds tasty :)
How can we check if they put correct email? They can put randomly
I would not worry about this too much 😊 It is in their best interests to put the right email because that is how you will contact them if they win!
great tips!
Thanks Mallory!
Alex your videos are so helpful professional, I am just wondering should we expect more content from you???
Yes! I just uploaded a new video and hope to post 1-3 a month!
Great content 👍
Thank you 🙌
Thank you, great tips! Definetly going to use some of them for my first Instagram Giveaway! Madame LaMort.
I hope your giveaway is a success 😊
Great info! Thanks for the tips. My goal for a giveaway is simply to give back to the people who have already hit the subscribe button. So this should be easy. lol
Np! Hope it goes well :)
@@AlexTooby it did. :)
Hello there! I know this took place 8 months ago, but my question is, in a giveaway, if you'd like someone to do multiple tasks to earn extra entries for a contest, how would I be able to keep track of each task they did? And at the end when I tally everybody's entries, how could I ensure taking those extra steps into account for a fair draw?
By the way, I really loved this video! Super informal and helpful as heck! I absolutely appreciate it! :)
Hey there! Thank you for watching! 🙂 It depends on what kind of tasks you want them to do. You want to make it as simple as possible for them AND easy for you to track! If you want them to share the post to their stories and @ mention you for an extra entry, you can flag all of the mentions in your inbox then count them up when the giveaway closes. Export the comments with exportcomments.com (you can do up to 500 on a free plan) and give an extra entry (or however many extra entries they get) to anyone who completed the extra task. Then use random.org to pick the winner. I hope that helps!
This is fantastic! Thanks for posting this video, very informative.
Quick questions: Where would I post the official terms and conditions, such as age restrictions, any geographic restrictions, and the mandatory Instagram disclaimers? I assume it would be after the rules section in the caption but I wanted to confirm.
Also, do you recommend any apps or web based programs that allow you to keep track of entries? I imagine that you can end up with a lot of followers, comments, and likes so I was wondering what the best way to keep track of that would be. Thanks again!
Yes, I just put it at the end of the caption, usually separated by a couple dashes 👍🏻
I like kingsumo.com a lot for tracking giveaway entries - it's email based (so that's the primary entry qualification) but after they've done that it gives them extra entries for ig follows, youtube subscribes, shares, etc and keeps track of all of them.
For Instagram specific I don't have a suggestion off the top of my head but I do believe there are some if you google it - just be careful about apps that want to access your account to gather the data 😊
@@AlexTooby Thank you so much! Really appreciate it!
Thank you
You're welcome! Thanks for watching 😊
when someone wins a giveaway, how are you suppose to ship it to them? i really don't understand how to do that! someone please help me!!
ashley perez yeah. If they win I am to scared to ask them for there address and o do not know how to ship them
Hi Ashley! If you have promised a physical product to your giveaway participants, then you do have to ship it to them. Simply ask them for their address and send it from your local post office.
@@AlexTooby Are you saying that it is possible to ship something without giving your address and a return address? If so, I never knew that was possible♡!!!
@@AlexTooby thank you!!
This is so true..
I am glad you found my video useful :)
i wanna say have them tagg you aswel so you know who entered the number thing was very helpful thanks
Thanks so much for watching :)
I want to conduct giveaway in collaboration with other account so what rules should I keep??
Hi there, Thanks so much for watching. Re. your giveaway, that sounds very exciting! This blog is a great place to start, so be sure to implement my suggestions. As for the rules, you and the account you are collaborating with will need to come up with them on your own, I cannot help you with that :)
Having an email list is huge! How often do you contact your list? Also, do you segment your leads to send certain emails to certain people?
I communicate with my list whenever I think I have something beneficial for them and I do have segment my list to cater even more to their needs :)
Thank uuu
You're welcome Aafreen!
thanks
You're welcome! :)
When giving away a physical gift, how do you get the winner's address without coming across invasive?
Just ask! 😊
Great giveaway
Thanks! Excited to announce the winner :)
I just started my Instagram account for my business and only have like 100 followers. When do you recommend running a giveaway? Now to grow or wait till I have more of a following?
I would work on building a bit more of a following because then you will gain more exposure by default when you host your giveaway. Check out my engagement tips here: alextooby.com/how-to-get-more-likes-on-instagram/ Hope this helps Braiden :)
Suscribed :)
Thanks Viviana!
How do you do an email giveaway? Do you ask them to join your email list? How do you keep it simple?
Hi Eilka! There are many resources out there that can offer you help when it comes to creating an email giveaway but in essence, an IG giveaway and an email giveaway operate in the same way so you can use this video as a starting point and just keep it simple by not complicating the signup process 😊
I'd love to win!!!
You're in! Good luck :)
So how did you pick a random subscriber to win your course?
There are many apps out there that will help you with this, I would do a quick google and find one that suits your situation the best etc.
@@AlexTooby unfortunately all I can find are comment pickers, but maybe I'm not driving deep enough.
I think about doing a give away for Christmas
Me too!!!! 😊💜
Done and so excited #bestIGisalextooby
Aw thanks Rachel!
I keep getting tagged on instagram giveaways and it’s so annoying
If it is getting to you, just change your tagging permissions :)
subscribed--i think
Thanks so much!
Can I do a raffle and post ?
Hi Fadila! As long as your raffle sticks to IG’s T&C’s i.e the participants do not have to pay to enter and you select a winner at completely random then you should be fine 👍🏻
🙏🙏👌👍
Thanks for watching!
Sorry but what's an email list?
A email list is a collection of your subscribers/followers who have opted in to receive updates/promotions/newsletters from you :)
Yup I hate loop giveaways. I never do that BS, it’s way too much.
Right?! So annoying!
I really love your channel because I really want to be a good ig -matheed0
Thank you!
I guess loop giveaway is bad no matter how many followers you already got
Hi Rosemary! I would stay away from loop giveaways if you can 😊
@@AlexTooby yes Mandam
Thank you so much I’m doing my giveaway now and use your advice 🙏🏻🍀 ph_beautyswiss
Awesome! Good luck on your giveaway! 💜
Very useful , thank you! 🙌
You're welcome. Glad it helped you! 😊
