about why they should be selected, and

high entertainment value. People flocked
to the site.

Facebook was a natural fit for this
promotion. The first big spike on the fans
chart above happened after the schools
were announced. When the page first
launched, Tostitos had to cast a somewhat
wide net with their ad placement. After it
was announced on December 7 that Ohio
State and University of Texas were the
two competing schools, Tostitos refined
their ad target down to just current and
alums of those schools.
48. Tostitos on Success Tip #3
Facebook:
Case Study (New) content is king!
The next big spike in traffic can be
brought attributed to status updates. Once
the race began, the page lit up with new
content on a very frequent basis. This
created news feed items and gave fans a
reason to come back to the page. Graphics
and content were updated often.

There is no substitute.

gives 5 percent of its income to
charity. During the "Bullseye
Gives" campaign, they are
allocating those funds—which
come out to $3 million every
week—to charities selected by
Facebook users.
From a Salvation Army press release:
The company [Target] has launched the
“Bullseye Gives” campaign on Facebook, which
is essentially a voting application connected to
the brand’s existing Facebook page. On it, users
select one of ten charities they would like to see
funds allocated to. Money will then be given out
based on percentages (so if 10% of users vote
for The Salvation Army, that organization will
receive 10% of the total donations).
