DealDash Picture-Taking Tips

Do you take pictures of your DealDash wins? You should, you can win 1,000 bids from DealDash in the weekly Facebook contest.

Every week DealDash has a Facebook photo contest to win 1,000 bids. Isn’t that cool? DealDash loves their customers and wants to give them the equivalent of $150 in free bids! If you take great pictures, then you’re more likely to win – it IS a photo contest, after all.

Close-Ups Are Great

If you have won an item that’s on the smaller side, then maybe a close-up is the way to go. For example, if you win a ring, then put it on your finger and hold up your hand to your face. Then get a close-up with your camera. Or if you have won a necklace, then put that beautiful thing on! Then take a close-up of yourself with your necklace.

Take Your Pics Outdoors

Having natural and bright light for your photos will make your pictures even better than you imagined. The bright Spring and Summer sun will highlight your DealDash win better than any indoor lighting – unless you own a photography studio, of course. The sun is your friend when it comes to taking the best photos around. Good photos = Facebook contest wins!

Make Sure You’re in it!

Part of the fun of the DealDash photo contest is to showcase the bidder as well as the win. So make sure that you’re in the photo with your win. I know, I know, some people are camera shy, but if you want to win the contest then you’re going to need to put aside your bashfulness and get into that photo.

Post it on Facebook

After you have taken your photo of yourself with your win navigate to the DealDash Facebook page which is here, and “Like” it. Then you can post your picture to get free bids. Here are the instructions from DealDash detailing the instructions how to get free bids from Facebook:

1. Select an item you have won on DealDash to feature in the photo.

2. Take a high-quality photo clearly showing yourself and the item you won.

3. Send your best-looking photo to [email protected] and add a description which should include the following information: the item name, retail price, how much you paid for the item and a personal comment about the win as well. For example: “I got this $879 flatware set on@DealDash. I paid just $9.02 and used 109 bids! Thanks DealDash, they look nice in my kitchen”

DealDash Photography Tips for Bids

DEALDASH photography

You don’t have to be a professional photographer to get free bids from DealDash. But here are some tips to take better pictures.

Getting free bids on DealDash is easy and fun – all you have to do is take a picture of yourself and the item and send it in to DealDash. I’ll give more detailed instructions down below, but for now, here are some tips from DealDash to take better-looking pictures. After all, these pictures are posted on Facebook for others to see, don’t you want to look your best?

  • Take your picture outside in the sunlight. You’ll look better with natural lighting, and there will be more light to showcase your item.
  • Smile! Come on, this isn’t chores, it’s fun! Show those pearly whites off and flash your best smile for the camera.
  • If you can get someone else to take your picture it will probably turn out better, but if you’re taking your picture solo, see if you can use the timer feature on your camera.
  • Keep it simple. You don’t need to stage anything elaborate, just you and the DealDash win in the picture is perfect.
  • Make sure that you hold the camera steady when you take the picture. It will look so much more sharp and clear when you hold it steady.
  • Look directly at the camera when you’re taking the picture. Try not to blink.
  • Take a few pictures in a row. There’s a much higher chance of getting a good picture if you take 3 or 4 than if you just take one.

Now that you’ve read the tips, are you ready to take pictures of your DealDash winnings? Here are the full instructions describing how to get free bids from DealDash using your picture that you just took.Here’s how:

After you have taken your photo of you and your DealDash win head on over to the DealDash Facebook page which is here, and “Like” it.
