You have a couple of different options when taking your content down from the Engagement Hub.

* **(1)** If you have manually published your card, you can simply click on the **unpublish** option here. This will manually take down the content from your hub.
* **(2)** Alternatively, you can **schedule** a time for your content to be automatically unpublished from your hub here.

## Announce Your Winners

After your competition has ended we highly recommend announcing your winners either on the Engagement Hub, Social Media or EDM. This is a great way to drive people back to your Hub, to participate in future competitions and content. Below is an example of how our customer, San Churro, use the description of their Cards to announce their competition winners!
