/excelamktg, Announces Extreme Social Media Makeover Contest

Oct. 12, 2011 - PRLog -- LOS ANGELES, California (September 22, 2011) -- /excelamktg, a California based social media and marketing firm, has created a three month long contest for business owners to win a complete redesign of their Twitter and Facebook pages. The Extreme Social Media Makeover Contest prize package will include a new background design for the business, Twitter profile, and a “Facebook facelift”, featuring a new professional profile image and a photo-row design, as well as a landing page design, for the winner’s Facebook business page.

“As a social media company, we wanted to showcase what we can do for other businesses to help improve their online traffic and viewership. We believe that there is a definite relationship between visually appealing, updated Facebook and Twitter brand pages and the amount of traffic they receive,” said Ashley Ranger, President of /excelamktg.

The benefits of a well-designed, branded page are copious, but creating a professional, sharp looking page can be difficult.  Conducted by Andrew MacMains, columnist for AdWeek Magazine, a recent ‘Facebook and Brands’ survey shows that even brand advocates will reject a dull or irrelevant page. MacMains also finds that thirty six percent of respondents go as far as to unsubscribe from a lackluster page.

The total retail value of the redesign prize is $1,500 for the new Twitter background and updated Facebook page, with professional Twitter backgrounds running upwards of $750 and the updated Facebook profile pictures, photo row design, and landing page design being priced at $750 as well.

/excelamktg will host the contest on Facebook starting on October 1, 2012, requiring entrants to have current business Facebook and Twitter profiles. To sign up, visit http://www.facebook.com/excelamktg, go to the “Social Media Makeover” tab, and supply your name, business information, and e-mail. Entries must be received by January 31, 2012 at 10:00am PST.
