			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Giveaways, freebies, prizes&#8230;.. whatever you like to call it &#8211; we&#8217;ve been giving stuff away! Not only are we rewarding our Fans or Followers for taking the time to enter our competitions, we are also increasing our brand awareness via social media.</p>
<p><span id="more-57"></span></p>
<p>Our latest competition was cooked up a couple of weeks ago when Mei-Li and I were working on Marketing with Sam at <a href="http://thinktankmedia.com.au/blog/" target="_blank">ThinkTank Media</a>.</p>
<p>We aimed to develop a competition that was kind of unusual, without being too difficult or time consuming for people to enter. We wanted the prize to be something totally worthwhile, that would encourage people to give it a go&#8230;. but you have to watch <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkkWB4MT0xY" target="_blank">the video</a> to find out what you could win!</p>
<p>We had so much fun creating a video for the competition to upload onto YouTube-(because the &#8216;acting&#8217; was so terribly bad)! We&#8217;ve been promoting the competition on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/CarolineServicedApartments?ref=ts" target="_blank">Facebook</a>, <a href="http://twitter.com/CarolineApts" target="_blank">Twitter</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkkWB4MT0xY" target="_blank">YouTube</a> and our Blog. We&#8217;ve received a few entries so far and are amazed at how many views the video has received. We are certain that <a href="http://www.carolineservicedapartments.com/" target="_blank">Caroline Serviced Apartments</a> are getting more well known, as our Followers and Fans increase daily. We also feel that having such an unusual competition will help cement our company in people&#8217;s minds if ever they do need accommodation in Melbourne. They may remember us as the one&#8217;s who are making an effort to reach out to future guests in a very different way (so far we have not found any other accommodation provider in Australia who is running anything similar to this). What are you waiting for? Get creative and show us your &#8216;mug-shot&#8217; before November 9th.</p>

 <br />
Ali and Mei-Li (that is pronounced May-Lee) are adventurous, excitable and vivacious girls who are totally amazed by this space; <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_media">social media</a>. We have hooked up with <a href="http://www.sammutimer.com/" target="_blank">Sam Mutimer</a> from <a href="http://www.thinktankmedia.com.au" target="_blank">Thinktank Media </a>who is cramming us with knowledge on how to use this space to connect with our clients; past, present &amp; future. You maybe thinking now we work for some sort of escort agency&#8230; but actually we are managers of a brand of fabulous serviced apartments in Melbourne.</p>
