The document describes a campaign by The Beer Department to increase followers on Instagram. They held a contest where followers could win a cruiser bike by reposting an image with a hashtag. With help from influencers, the contest got 731 new followers in a week, bringing their total to over 2,200. Most of the new followers were from the target region. The campaign cost only $195.70, much less than an estimated paid campaign on Facebook and Twitter would have been. It proved that social amplification of a brand is more effective than an expensive prize.
