Running a social media competition @Harry_O style

Harry O'Brien is running another Twitter competition and a few athletes (and franchises) could take note how it is done.

Get a compelling & unique prize

Harry is offering a signed football boot as the prize which will get fans involved in a big way.  Sharing the prize via Twitpic.

Make it easy for people to enter

All people have to do is RT some of Harry's tweets promoting the band Gasoline Inc's new single “Superstar”.

Tweets can be tracked using services like TwapperKeeper or TwitterReach.

Harry has built a social media following over 6000 Twitter followers & over 5000 Facebook fans.  It allows him to promote his causes & in this case his brother's band Gasoline Inc.
