Ever since we\u2019ve had cameras, we\u2019ve wanted to take selfies\u2026 even grainy black and whites. Now selfies are all around us.<\/p>\n<p>With the advances in technology we all are very familiar with camera phones and over the past few years selfie sticks have been gaining popularity as well. With the volume and advances in production capabilities, they have become a tremendous promotional marketing item.<\/p>\n<p>The logo can appear in several place on the selfie stick depending on the model. With some selfie stick the logo is imprinted on the handle. This is great for keeping your brand in front of the user at all times. For impressions all around the user, you will want the logo to appear on the phone bracket\u2019s outside surface. While the user will see in less, it will get exposure to a lot of people around the user. Depending on your preference, either location can be valuable.<\/p>\n<p>To get even more impressions, incorporate the selfie stick give a way with some type of social contest. Some of the fun ideas we have come across are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Location treasure hunt. Pick a bunch of well known as well as lesser known landmarks and location around the city and have participants search them out and take selfies in front of them. Those who found the most locations the fastest wins. This is a great contest for the selfie sticks that have the logo on the outside of the phone bracket.<\/li>\n<li>The Group Shot. If the people are not in the same city, have a contest of how many people they can get in the selfie picture. People have a of fun trying to get everyone in the shot.<\/li>\n<li>The Best (or Worst) Dressed Selfie. Make it fun to share funny selfies. People get a kick out of participating and looking at these.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For these and other selfie contests, have the participants post them on twitter with a custom hash tag an @yourcompany. It will be easy to find them and you\u2019ll get a lot of exposure.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipromo.com\/promotional-products\/selfie-sticks\/\">branded selfie sticks<\/a>, contact one of our account managers.
