Simply design your giveaway, give our widget code to the publisher & you can see entries in realtime. This means you also control how you products are given away by 3rd parties.

E-Commerce brands use Gleam to generate buzz, collect user generated content, increase sales, increase social activity & also to get feedback on various site features. Take BeardBrand for example, they used Gleam to increase their social following & email list by over 100% in a week.

Being a startup ourselves we know how difficult it can be to find new customers. We see so many incredible products every day but not many startups using giveaways to get them in front of more people.

Every month, hundreds of startups use our platform to grow their business. You can read some case studies with both Beardbrand & Wet Shave Club to get an idea of what types of campaigns they are executing.

Bloggers are a huge market for competitions, often they giveaway products from brands directly or run competitions to giveaway snippets or full versions of their own digital products.

Bloggers can run Gleam directly in a blog post with our widget. Have a play with our demo below to get a feel for how the entry mechanisms work.

Event organisers around the world are turning to Gleam to promote their events. Our platform makes it easy to run scalable campaigns that drive ticket sales or spread your event virally amongst passionate fans.

How event marketers use the Gleam platform:

• Meet & greets with artists
• Giveaway unique tracks or downloads from artists
• Run giveaway at live events
• VIP tickets to concerts or events
• Access to VIP areas
• Event swag

Do you have an awesome product that you want to get in more people’s hands? Or perhaps you’ve just added a new feature that you want to promote?

You can easily use Gleam to incentivize new customers to try out your new features, launch a crowdfunding campaign, or to get potential customers to try out a free trial, or you could simply give away a defined number of your new products to people.

Using our viral entry mechanisms means that the more entries you get, the more your product gets in front of more qualified people. Having the right prize that suits the demographic that you’re targeting means you can get a massively amplified reach. Something you’d pay handsomely for via traditional channels.
