Social Sharing for Everyone

Published September 14, 2015 in Leadership

Our blog talks about all the ways social media can save you time on your awards program, so it became a must that we made the social features easier and more accessible in our software.

With this feature update, we present three ways to add social call to actions within your site.

Social Follow

If your organization already has a presence on Facebook, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Twitter, or if you have a newsletter, this is a quick and non-obtrusive way to add quick Follow links to your awards website.

A few seconds after the site loads, follow icons will fade in and appear in the top corner if your website.

Share this Page

Social sharing is the most popular form of using social networks.  By enabling social sharing, your site will present icons on the left side of the page to allow the user to share the current page or a page you set.

Tell the World You Submitted

What better time to encourage someone to share than right after they finish their submission?  With this update, we made it super easy for you to turn on social sharing on the confirmation page.

To configure the follow header and sharing sidebar, read this guide.

To configure the call to action after submission, follow this guide.
