Competitions
Get students creating and sharing content made for you!
Connect with your current students and followers through a series of fun and engaging competitions, challenges, and polls.
In an effort to win, contestants create content that tells the true and authentic story of your brand, and share it with their family, friends, and communities, pushing new audiences to your site where you collect emails and capitalize on the data. This content and emails are then owned by you and can be repurposed for future marketing campaigns, new email lists, social posts, and more.

Trying to keep track of all your school’s communications and posts and tags and mentions can get overwhelming and keep you from doing the other things you need to be doing.
Our Social Inbox does all the heavy lifting for you so that you have a single place to quickly view, manage, engage, invite and more.
- Aggregate social channels from one inbox
- Explore UGC around your brand
- Engage directly with fans and followers
- Organize content by categories, influencers, etc.

The Board
Convert your campus into a catalyst for more great posts and content by displaying eye-catching screens with your Gigg Board.
Control what shows up on your board using your Social Inbox and also notify your Students, Faculty, and Alumni when their post is being featured. This encourages traffic to your site while also fostering a reward system for engagement. Not only can you display posts on your Gigg Board, but you can also add calls-to-action on each of the posts driving additional traffic wherever you want.
The Gigg board is versatile and can be added where you need exposure most! Easily add to your website, or make a bigger show of it at events on the big screen. Not only does this provide you with an opportunity to engage, but it also provides you with a way to add additional custom posts to advertise other school programs, initiatives, and announcements.
