ChallyPop Challenges: The Results

Kristin May 3, 2024
Share

In the era of digital space, social media floods our screens daily. The sheer amount of content we engage with can be inspiring, yet it can also overwhelm those aspiring to follow in the footsteps of influencer creators. Enter: ChallyPop Challenges.

My journey as a bookish creator on Instagram started over 4 years ago. With less than 10 followers, I was eager to share my passion for books with fellow readers on social media. Although I put lots of energy into creating posts, writing reviews, and engaging with others and I met many wonderful people through that account, growing in following was almost impossible in the beginning.

This left me wondering what I was doing wrong and how I can leave my mark on the bookish creator space. How can I stand out from the crowd if all the work so far wasn’t enough? Especially as it was much harder to even be considered for ARCs or PR boxes from publishers if you didn’t have the numbers to support your requests. Needless to say, financial compensation for all the time and effort you’ve put into creating content was out of the question! I wished for a change in the social media game which will give me an equal chance as someone with big follower accounts. I wished for a space like ChallyPop.

Now, I am proud to be part of a team that realizes the potential in everyone. Just like the sister companies Bookinfluencers and Tandem Collective, ChallyPop is here to disrupt the influencer market space in a fun and innovative way. Think of the platform as the new ‘cool kid’ on the block, celebrating creativity in the creator space over any follower metrics. Or, as I’d like to describe it, a ‘breath of fresh air’ for micro influencers.

Introducing ChallyPop Challenges

In April, we launched our first ChallyPop challenges. We encouraged influencers from all social media platforms and sizes to take part and share with us their most anticipated books, films and TV shows and compete for many rewards. The different tiers offered financial incentives starting from $10 USD to the grand prize of $100 USD.

1st Place: $100 USD

2nd Place: $75 USD

3rd Place: $50 USD

4th – 10th Place: $25 USD

11th – 20th Place: $10 USD

Needless to say, we were beyond happy with the wave of positive responses! As our Book ChallyPop Challenge came to an end, over 100 creators submitted their entries for a chance to win one of the many prizes. From intricate stop-motion animations to hilarious faux Facetime conversations, the submissions were as diverse as they were impressive. We’re blown away by the level of talent on display and thrilled to award prizes to our top contenders.

🚂 I spend a lot of time on trains, though, since my family and friends are scattered across the country.

💌 Journaling is truly my hobby. I already kept diaries as a child, and for the past 10 years I’ve been keeping a journal that’s a mix of a bullet journal, scrapbook, junk journal, and diary.
