Mobilizr helps brands pay customers for every like, share and comment.
The Nigerian start-up is a platform for brands to pay consumers for
posting pictures of themselves with a specific product. At 3 cents per
like, could be easy to make it rich
"If I had a nickel for every selfie I saw in my Facebook newsfeed, I would be a pretty rich girl". And with Nigerian startup Mobilizr, those selfies could start working for their photographers, if the selfie depicts someone with a specific brand.
Ever realized when you’re watching talent
reality shows how the judges are ONLY drinking out of Coca-Cola cups?
Have you ever had the experience of going to a launch party for a new
company and their way of promoting their brand was by having you (the
guests) upload pictures on instagram hashtagging their brand name? Allow
me to make this a little more simple; Imagine if we lived in a world in
which someone was willing to get you paid for the likes on your
Facebook and instagram photos, and for the retweets you get on
twitter…think about it. Cool, right? Then let’s introduce you to
Mobilizr.
Mobilizr is a social platform that connects brands with users who can
contribute to brand campaigns by posting brand-related content on the
different social networks and in return, gets these “brand ambassadors”
paid for good engagement!
Mobilizr launched its mobile app in beta in early May and plans to
officially launch at the end of this month. The app allows brands to
reward loyal customers for posting pictures of themselves with their
brands on social media. This sort of advertising could turn the whole
business on its head, as leveraging paying consumers who already use
these products is much cheaper than launching expensive campaigns with
models or celebrities.
For example, with Mobilizr, a brand could ask its
supporters to post a picture of them with their product on Facebook,
Twitter, LinkedIn, Tumblr, Pinterest, Instagram or Google+ and the
supporter would then earn money for every like, share, or comment. Users
are paid 3 cents per engagement on their posts through PayPal, or Mobile TopUp which
can really add up for all those #socialmediagurus.
To mark their exciting launch, Mobilizr is hosting a competition in
search of the most engaging campaign ideas and our top three will earn a
sponsorship of 10,000 engagements! Think your brand has what it takes?

The app IS available via Apple store and Google play.
