Online voting is a versatile tool for engaging audiences and enhancing the energy of any event. While commonly associated with award shows and competitions, its potential goes far beyond these traditional uses. Here are three creative ways to make online voting a standout feature at your next event:
Product Launch Feedback: Engaging Your Audience with Voting
Involving your audience in the product launch process can be a game-changer. Online voting enables you to gather their input, transforming them from passive consumers into active collaborators. This interactive approach not only adds excitement to your launch but also validates ideas, increase engagement, create buzz and deliver valuable insights to help shape the product’s success.
Example: Choosing the Right Packaging
For products where visual appeal matters, like consumer goods, voting on packaging designs can reveal what catches the eye and communicates your brand effectively. By giving your audience, the opportunity to select from various packaging choices, you ensure that the design aligns with their preferences, increasing the likelihood of engagement and purchases. This audience-driven approach not only deepens your connection with customers but also provides a competitive advantage by ensuring your product’s appearance matches the tastes of your target market.
Event Theme Selection: Captivate Your Audience with Interactive Voting
Choosing the perfect theme for an event can set the tone for its success, but narrowing down the best option can be challenging. By involving your audience in the decision-making process through voting, you not only create excitement but also ensure that your event resonates with their preferences. Whether it’s a corporate event, a fundraiser, or a community gathering, letting your audience have a say in the theme fosters a sense of inclusion and connection, buildanticipation, ensure relevance and increase engagement.
Example: Corporate Events
For a company anniversary or retreat, you could present themes such as “Future Forward,” “Retro Revival,” or “Innovation Fest” for voting. The winning theme will likely capture the collective enthusiasm and spirit of your team, creating a more engaging and memorable event.
Team Competitions and Challenges: Elevate Engagement with Audience Voting
Team competitions and challenges are a fantastic way to bring people together, foster healthy competition, and strengthen bonds. Introducing an audience voting element elevates these events, boosts participation, adds an interactive element, fosters friendly rivalries, creates fair and transparent results, transforming them into interactive experiences that captivate not only participants but also the spectators. Whether it’s a corporate team-building exercise, a school talent show, or a community sports event, audience-driven voting adds excitement and Inclusivity to the mix.
Example: School and University Events
Audience voting can be a great addition to talent shows, debates, or sports events, helping to decide winners in categories like “Best Performance” or “Most Spirited Team.” This interactive element encourages students and attendees to actively participate, making them feel more connected to the event.

Being an online voting system izivote is a powerful tool used to create polls and online votes for diverse events such as awards, research and surveys. However, beyond the expected and known features, izivote provides several other tools which make it stand out as an exceptional online voting platforms.
Without further ado here are some things you probably didn’t know you could do with izivote.
Auto close votes
Izivote gives you the ability to set a time when voting would be closed, of course your votes won’t be open forever. This feature is particularly used to ensure voting is closed at a preferred time, also if you just feel lazy to log into your account to close voting, auto close voting is a great walk around for you.
To set auto close votes, follow the following steps
Go to your vote page settings
If vote stage is in ‘voting’ stage, check the ‘auto close vote’ check box
Set the time you want votes to auto close and save the changes
There you have it, once it gets to your set time, we would automatically help you to close voting.
Create an application form
Sometimes it becomes stressful to type categories, poll options or nominees for votes especially if there are several of them to be inputted. Izivote lets you create an application form which relieves you of the stress of typing in data.
An application form is simply a form you create for people to nominate themselves, by creating an application form you can request a nominee applicant to provide information about themselves you require, all information gets to you once anyone submits the application, from which you can remove those you think don’t meet your requirements.
“How is this different from using an external form service to get the information?”, well that would be a good question, but using an external form only gives you the information and doesn’t place it on a voting platform, you would still need to copy and paste to one, unlike using izivote application form that puts it directly on our voting platforms and lets you start your votes without stress.
To create and use an application form:
Go to your vote page dashboard
Add all required categories to your vote page
Click on application form
Add all information required from a nominee applicant (name and category are compulsorily included) and save
Go to your vote page settings, change vote stage to application and save
Now when any one visits your vote page, a form would be displayed for them to fill and nominate themselves.
Create multiple vote page
This feature was added in the most recent update of izivote, prior to which an account can only create a single vote at a time, this makes it easier for you to manage multiple independent votes at the same time, reducing the complexity of having to create another account to have another vote page. To create a new vote page
Click on add vote page from the vote pages drop down or page
Select your preferences, give your vote page a name and save
As simple as that is it gives you a new vote page.
Embed vote page on personal website
This is one of the astonishing features of izivote that makes it one of the best voting platforms, every website owner wants traffic to their website, (Why? More traffic potentially equals more income). But how can that be achieved if some visitors are redirected elsewhere, this restrict some website owners from using some third party services for their site, however most third party service providers support embed features which helps you place their content directly on your site without having to redirect your visitors to theirs. Izivote also does that.
With the embed feature, you can use izivote to create a vote page, add categories, nominees or options and embed the vote page on your website. That way voting takes place directly on your website while making use of our service. Great stuff! Simply copy the embed code on your vote page dashboard and paste wherever you want the vote page to appear on your website, that does it.
Preview vote statistics with charts
Another great feature added to izivote as at the last update is the use of charts to show vote statistics, unlike the progress bar used prior to the update, charts show more graphical and visual information of vote statistics. Vote statistics are now displayed using pie charts, bar charts and donut charts. Which show the metrics of votes received by each nominee or option. Simply go to the stats tab in your vote page dashboard and select your preferred chart to view results.
Certainly there are more features in izivote other than these stipulated on this post (Izivote is the only voting platform that allows you upload nominee’s pictures), as you familiarize yourself with the izivote interface you would get a hang of them, check our blog regularly to see posts on other features and be updated with izivote.
Izivote gives you the ability to create votes online for free, before you dive into using it, it would only be logical to evaluate its usage and find out if it would be profitable to you as well as meet your expectations. Izivote’s service lets you create online votes and polls for free, hence knowing the advantages of this service will give you a better idea of why you need it and should use Izivote. This post to give you some of the advantages of using an online poll
Advantages of online polls
1. Online polls can reach a wider audience
Thanks to the internet and the global connection that it gives, once a poll is placed online it is accessible to everyone on a global scope. Increasing the participation in your poll which ultimately increases the publicity and awareness of your brand or award.
2. Online polls are easier for people to respond to
In our present days, almost everyone owns a computer especially with the introduction of smart mobile devices, and most people spend their time using these computers while surfing the internet both during work time and leisure periods. Thanks to the fact that people can carry out several functions simultaneously on their device it would be no stress for them to answer you poll while they are on something else. Hence people will be willing to engage in your poll as it does not totally disrupt their planned-out task.
3. Online polls are faster and more accurate
Online polls deliver results instantly as the results are computed even as they are entered and are readily available. Once a system has been programmed accurately, it gives less or no room for mistakes and like Izivote, results of polls and awards are being computed accurately
4. Online polls are easily processed and displayed
Online polls results are already in digital format and so no further processing required. Online polls provide further analysis of the result with several statistical tools, for example Izivote also presents your result in form of a bar chart (other methods to be added in future updates) This saves time when it comes to presenting these results, they could as well be printed out easily.
These are few of the several reasons why it would be a good idea to have an online poll, and with great online poll apps like Izivote, the process is made easier. So start creating polls, surveys, award votes today with Izivote.
Izivote is an app that lets you to create votes and polls for free. Before developing izivote, we noticed that several votes were being done using a social media account and others which had dedicated website for them were limited and so lacking in some functionality. It actually seemed like a good approach to use social media for voting, but we looked beyond it to other possibilities, seeing limitations which it had, some of which include:
Most of these votes only work with a single category, limiting the award as social media platforms cannot effectively categorize nominees, and we all know that is not what social platforms were built for.
Votes are public, hence everyone knows the outcome of a vote before it is completed, and at many times this is not good as the suspense of the vote process is not maintained which is actually less exciting
Most time social media are used for votes and the person using them does not have the means of getting their own website integrated with voting.
Since we noticed these challenges and more, we decided to create something that would handle all these challenges and more, to create the perfect application for voting, such as:
Making it possible to hide votes
Letting you group votes into categories and adding nominees into specific categories
Adding features which let nominee photos to be added
Giving you your own link, leading to your votes
Making it possible to use the votes on your website if you have one
We still let you to link to your social media form your vote page
Voters can also share their view as they vote with comments
Giving your control over your votes
The list goes on. Izivote can be used for polls just as it is used for votes. We hope to power several awards, votes and polls that are coming and we are working continuously in upgrading our system so as to give everyone the best we can. Don’t wait, create a free izivote account today and start making votes. Contact us for support at [email protected] or chat with us live from our website www.izivote.com.
