Bank Insures $25K Scratch Card Promotion at Tradeshow

Looking to increase traffic at your next big event or tradeshow?  Then how about insuring a customizable scratch card promotion, just like this U.S. Bank location in the Midwest did?

On the specified promotion date, attendees of the tradeshow who showed up at the bank’s booth were given a customizable scratch card, featuring U.S. Bank’s name and logo.  If an attendee managed to scratch off 6 areas on the card, revealing “stacks of cash” symbols, then they’d be an instant $25,000 winner and Odds On Promotions would pay for the prize!

But that’s not all!  They also gave attendees an added incentive to stop by and check out their booth by including a registration form on the back of the scratch card and gave one lucky randomly drawn attendee a $250 VISA Gift Card… provided by U.S. Bank!

Northeast Casino Insures $1,000,000 Scratch Card Promotion!

Casino properties, you’re sure to love this one!  This promotion story comes to us from a property in the Northeast, which is currently increasing foot traffic with an insured scratch card promotion worth one of four varying prize levels!

During the two-month-long promotional period, any player who signs up for a Player’s Card receives a scratch card from Odds On Promotions.  Players simply scratch six spaces on the card, to see if “star” symbols are revealed.

If a player manages to find all six spaces which contain the “star” symbol, they will then proceed to scratch off the “Prize Level” box on the bottom of the card to see what prize they’ve won!  If the Prize Level box reveals one dollar sign symbol ($), they’ll receive $5,000.  Two dollar sign symbols means they’ll win $10,000.  Three, $50,000.  All paid for by Odds On.

And here’s the most exciting part: if the Prize Level box shows four dollar sign symbols, then that extra lucky player will win $1,000,000… also paid for by Odds On Promotions!

“Scratch cards are an exciting and cost-effective way of driving traffic to your casino property”, according to Chris Gardiner, Northeast & Midwest Business Development Manager with Odds On Promotions. “Players love scratch card contests.  They like the idea of being able to get a physical card and choose which boxes they are going to scratch off.  It’s like your property’s very own lottery ticket!”

Tennessee Retailer Insures Grand Opening Promotion!

Are you in the retail industry?  Do you plan on opening up a new store any time soon?  Even if you’re not, you’ll still definitely want to read about this Tennessee-based retail chain that is taking advantage of their 3 new store openings with a Lucky Envelopes promotion.  It’s the perfect traffic-driving promotion which can be held at any time, for any reason!

On two separate dates, this retail chain will be insuring a Lucky Envelopes promotion to drive traffic to their 3 new openings!  Prior to the start of the promotion, 10 random customers at each location who use the store’s point-based card when they come in and shop will have a chance to participate in the promotion.  Each participant will choose from 1 of 200 envelopes.  If the insert inside of the envelope they pick contains a grand prize symbol and message, they will be the owner of a brand new Dodge Dart, valued at $19,000… paid for by Odds On Promotions!

Talk about a great traffic builder!  And the best part about Odds On’s Lucky Envelopes promotion is that there are multiple formats which the promotion can be run, as seen on our website via the link above.  Want to make your Lucky Envelopes promotion an eye-popper?  Be sure to include one of our “larger-than-life” gameboards along with your contest insurance.  We can even fully customize one for you, if you’d like!

Distributing Co. Insures $50K Safecracker VSW Promotion

Looking to increase attendance at an upcoming Tradeshow or Open House event?
Here’s an idea to steal from a distributing company based in Washington state.

During a recent promotion, the first 500 people who walked through the company’s Open House event, which took place at their warehouse, were automatically given a chance to play Odds On’s Video Scratch and Win promotion, “Safe Cracker.” All 500 attendees stepped up to the game’s touchscreen and got the opportunity to choose 6 squares. If all 6 revealed a “stack of cash” symbol, then Odds On would have paid for the lucky attendee’s prize up to $50,000!

Here’s another promotion to consider insuring, either as an add-on or alternative: incentivize individuals to come to your Tradeshow or Open House by insuring an Odometer Match promotion. It begins when you advertise a chance to win an insured grand prize, such as a new car or a year’s worth of gas, if the number on an attendee’s odometer matches Odds On’s preselected number. Attendees simply enter in their “mileage” via Odds On’s handheld verification unit or online verification system. If the numbers on the odometer match Odds On’s preselected mileage, you attendee will be an instant winner and Odds On will cut the check!   Be sure to award attendees with self-insured prizes for any correctly matching digits!

Interested in obtaining a free, no-obligation quote on either of the above promotions? Give us a call today at 888-827-2249! Looking for more alternatives? No problem! Feel free to email us and we’ll find a promotion that best suits your upcoming event. Let Odds On help make your next tradeshow, open house, or show become a huge success!

Casino Insures $50K Thanksgiving VSW Tablet Promotion

Casino properties, are you looking for a “portable” and easy-to-run promotion that can be themed around virtually any holiday or major event?  Then you’ll appreciate this creative application of one of Odd On’s Video Scratch & Win games!

During November,  two casino properties in the Southwest will be insuring a Thanksgiving-themed Video Scratch & Win promotion, Cornucopia of Cash, on a hand-held tablet!

Here’s how it works. After a club member is randomly selected, a casino staff member will bring the hand-held tablet game to the player at their gaming position.  If the player manages to pick 6 “lucky” cornucopias on the game’s touchscreen, they’ll win $50,000, compliments of Odds On Promotions!

According to Evelyn Golding, Southeast Business Development Manager with Odds On Promotions, “I find the hand-held tablet games to be an extremely versatile and fun promotion for casinos.  I actually have a casino property that has a host dressing up  in a different Halloween costume every Tuesday and Wednesday and bringing the tablet right to their lucky “Hot Seat” winners to play for the big money.  The player never has to leave their seat so the casino has no loss of ‘coin-in’ and players enjoy the promotion because they feel so lucky being ‘the chosen one.”  I think it works well for casinos because along with the game, the casino can also customize the faceplate that surrounds the game. For example, the casino property I’m working is using a pumpkin faceplate because it matches the theme of the game they are using, “Lucky Pumpkin Pick.”

Chris Gardiner, Northeast & Midwest Business Development Manager with Odds On notes, “These hand-held tablet games are a very affordable way to bring a “winning experience” to a large number of players on the casino floor. You can award the “Hot Seat” winner a play on the tablet, then give the person to their immediate left and/or  right the chance to win as well.  With more people participating,  it really enhances the sense of “winning” on the casino floor!  What’s more, due to its unique consolation prize capabilities, casinos can dictate the quantity and types of secondary prizes so they don’t go over budget.”

Brent Kelly, Northwestern Business Development Manager adds, “For me, these tablet games are a fun and easy way to bring some bling to the Pit because they are quick playing and easy to operate.”
