At Ecamm, we’re always exploring innovative tools that help us connect better with our audience. One such tool that has quickly become a favorite is Stampede Social—a powerful social selling and engagement platform for Instagram and Facebook. Recently, I sat down with Jeff Dwoskin, a comedian, podcaster, and CEO of Stampede Social, to talk about how Stampede helps to enhance Ecamm’s social media interactions and why it’s a game-changer.
What is Stampede Social?
Stampede Social simplifies social engagement on Instagram and Facebook by creating unique, trackable links and automating DM responses. With these features, Stampede Social allows brands to host giveaways, drive user-generated content, and maintain constant interaction with followers—all while collecting insightful data that informs our marketing decisions.
Why Ecamm Chose Stampede Social
As a company dedicated to helping creators produce high-quality video content, Ecamm is constantly engaging with our audience across social media platforms. Stampede Social helps us bridge the gap between capturing interest and driving action. Using unique links and DM automation, we can ensure followers quickly get the resources they need, and we gain valuable insights on what content and resources our customers and followers are interested in.
Key Features We Love
Here are a few ways we use Stampede Social at Ecamm:
- Automated DM Links: For our video content and newsletters, we offer followers easy access to resources by asking them to comment on specific keywords. For example, followers can comment a keyword on an Instagram post, and Stampede Social will automatically DM them the link to the requested resource.
- Event and Giveaway Management: Stampede Social has transformed our approach to event giveaways. By using its winner selection tool, we’re able to manage entries effortlessly. We sponsored an event called Podcast Summit earlier this year and used Stampede’s QR code to seamlessly connect attendees with our podcast course, generating instant engagement.
- UGC (User-Generated Content) Tracking: Stampede Social enables us to monitor hashtags and track posts, giving us a clear view of how our content is performing. This makes it easy to collect and feature user-generated content, while enhancing the community connection we’ve built with our audience.
- Data Collection and Audience Insights: Stampede Social’s ability to track engagement and generate user insights has helped us gain a deeper understanding of our audience. This data enables us to refine our social strategies and build more meaningful, personalized interactions.
Our Favorite Success Story
One of our most successful uses of Stampede Social was during Podcast Summit in Atlanta this year. We were a sponsor of the event and had built out this incredible space for attendees to come and record their podcast using Ecamm right from the event.
In addition to this, Doc Rock (our Director of Strategic Partnerships), hosted a session about video podcasting to the event’s attendees. Since we were in the process of launching our podcast course, we used Stampede Social’s QR code feature and added the QR code to the end of Doc’s slides.
So when Doc finished up presenting about video podcasting, he told the attendees in his session that they could simply scan the QR code on screen and comment “podcastcourse.” Everyone who did that (well over 60 attendees) was taken to our Ecamm Instagram DMs where they were immediately sent the link to register for the course.
While this was hugely helpful in driving course registration and also helped us capture important leads, it did something else that we think was the biggest deal – we were able to respond back to everyone personally who had DMed us to thank them, let them know that we were available for any questions, and remind them to swing by our podcast recording space on site at the event.
This was hands-down our most successful event of the year because we formed connections with attendees who were interested rather than hoping that they’d remember us and search us out later. Immediacy and engagement matters.

For anyone managing a brand, a podcast, or a program on social media, Stampede Social is an invaluable tool for deepening connections with your followers. From user-generated content tracking to automated DMs and engagement data, Stampede gives you the tools you need to elevate your social presence.
