Use emojis in Instagram Stories, Facebook posts, or Twitter to tease the mystery product. For example, a gift box emoji 🎁 or a question mark ❓ can hint at the surprise, building intrigue. For each product, you can create several clues over time to engage followers.
Utilize countdown timers in Instagram Stories or Facebook posts to remind followers about the time left to participate in the mystery guessing game. Example captions could be: “Only 48 hours left to guess your mystery item!” This builds urgency and excitement as the end date approaches.
Once the campaign is over, create a post or story to announce the winners and thank participants. This not only adds a personal touch but also highlights the fun and engagement of the campaign.

Use Instagram polls and quiz stickers to further engage users. For example, ask followers to vote on what they think the mystery product could be. You could also run interactive polls asking: “Which mystery item would you like to win?” This helps drive excitement and involvement.
