Eden Advertising & Interactive Challenges its Fans with the Chance to Win a Free iPad in their First Ever Social Media Photo Contest on Facebook

Toronto, Ontario – November 22, 2010 – Creative marketing firm, Eden Advertising & Interactive Inc. invites their Facebook fans and followers to participate in their first social media contest to win an iPad.

Passionate for eye-catching photography, the Eden team understands that print ads or web site design wouldn’t be as impactful without intriguing and captivating images. To celebrate the wonders of the art form, Eden has created a picture-lover’s platform for sharing original, unique and interesting photographs from around the world to anyone around the world. Free for anyone to participate, contestants submit their entries by uploading what they feel are their best photographs onto the photo contest website and rely on votes to win an iPad.

Once entered, the submitted photo along with all other submissions are displayed publicly on the Eden Photo Contests webpage. The contest, running October 21st, 2010 through January 31st, 2011, expects to generate some close competition as impressive images have already been entered and many more are expected. The public’s votes are tallied by either a simple thumbs up or down, with the top three entries being awarded trendy Apple media products for their efforts. Second and third place entries with the most votes by the deadline will receive an iPod Touch and an iPod Nano respectively, with the grand prize contestant winning a free Apple iPad.

By launching the photo contest, it not only provides photographers a sharing ground to showcase their talent, but the power of social media marketing allows Eden to expand its social media presence and interaction with a much wider audience. “Social media, through websites like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and YouTube, is the hottest topic in online marketing today,” says Esther Willinger, President of Eden Advertising & Interactive. “Companies understand that they’ll need to incorporate social media into their marketing mix sooner or later if they want to stay competitive. The Eden Photo Contest is a great way to capture our target’s imagination while growing our social media fan base. As an advertising agency, we offer the same strategies to any company who is interested in leveraging social media channels to grow their business.”

To participate in the contest, visit the Eden Facebook page and click the “like” button to become a fan. Simply click the “Contest” tab at the top of the page to navigate your way through the photo contest page. Visitors are invited to submit their most original images in any of the following three categories:

• People: Interesting faces or candid moments in time
• Nature: Scenery or animals
• Miscellaneous: Choose your theme. Your imagination is the limit.
