Fitness Challenge Video Contest

Running a fitness challenge that features a video contest is one of the most effective ways to engage your audience and amplify your brand visibility.

With Gleam, you can launch a video-based campaign where users complete your fitness challenge and submit their video entry through Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, or YouTube.

Participants get a fun, shareable experience — and you get valuable user-generated content that builds social proof and inspires others to join in. These types of contests have strong viral potential as friends, followers, and communities rally around each submission.

You can even enable voting using a public Gallery to let your audience choose their favourite entries and drive even more engagement for your fitness business.
