What does Coinbase do at a glance

How does Coinbase handle its social posts

Turn product use into a contest with a title
Coinbase

1. Turn product use into a contest with a title

A prize pool and a world title give people a reason to use the product more right now, and the in person spot gives winners a story worth sharing.

  1. Name the contest like a title
  2. Put the prize and the dates up front
  3. Add a reward money cannot buy
  4. Post the rules in the thread

Celebrate the day your category was born

2. Celebrate the day your category was born

Bitcoin's supply cap of 21 million is the one number holders repeat, so leading with it says the whole idea in a line, and a birthday the whole category celebrates gives the brand a reason to post that is not an ad.

  1. Find the date your category was born
  2. Lead with the one number fans already know
  3. Make the post about the day, not your product
  4. Add the history in your own reply
