Washington Agency Insures Tagged Fishing Promotion Worth $40,000 at Local Fishing Tournament

Looking to ‘reel in’ more attendees and fundraising dollars at your next big fishing tournament?  Then be sure to take notes from this Washington agency that teamed up with a local fishing tournament to hold a tagged fishing promotion worth the big bucks!

Here’s how the promotion worked: Anglers that day were on the lookout for one of five tagged fish (Triploid Rainbow Trout, to be exact) which were placed in the reservoir that day.  Each tagged rainbow trout contained a unique number.  If an angler managed to catch one of the tagged fish, they would call Odds On Promotions’ phone verification hotline and input the number on the tag to see what prize they’ve won!

Four of the tagged fish were worth a $500 cash prize while one lucky rainbow trout was worth a brand new boat valued at $40,000!

While unfortunately, no one managed to catch the lucky grand prize tagged fish, there’s still a happy ending to this promotion: all of the money that was fundraised that day went toward a great cause – restocking the reservoir with all new Triploid Rainbow Trout!

Facebook Contest Ideas: Perfect for Small Businesses

facebook contest ideasAre you a small business or non-profit organization looking to increase fans and engagement on your Facebook page?  Look no further — Odds On Promotions has some great Facebook contest ideas to help you achieve the results you’re looking for.

A common misconception is that only big brand pages and corporations benefit from Facebook’s contesting features.  By tweaking your marketing strategies, we can show you that that’s not at all the case!  And the best part is that you don’t have to give away a prize worth thousands in order to succeed!  Discounts, merchandise, gift cards… the prize can be anything you want, and worth any amount!  Take a look at the Facebook contest ideas below:

1. Photo Contests
Photo contests are engaging and fun for all!  Invite your Facebook fans to submit photos to your wall.  If you’re a local restaurant or food chain, have your fans snap a picture of themselves eating at one of your locations!  Retailers and auto dealerships can also utilize this type of contest by having their fans submit pictures of themselves featuring their recent purchase(s).  Holding a promotion or special event?  Have them submit their best photo of themselves at the venue!  When your fan base votes on the submitted photos, you’re not only increasing exposure on your end, but also increasing traffic which can continue even well after the contest ends.

2. Guessing Game Contests
This type of contest leaves you with a wide variety of options.  Have your Facebook fans participate in a word jumble, guess a question related to your company/organization (e.g. What year did Odds On Promotions go into business?), post a picture and have your fans guess where and/or when it was taken… or even post a picture of a jar of M&Ms and have them guess how many are in there (the person who guesses closest to the actual number will win).  The choice is strictly up to you how you choose to administer a guessing game contest and which type to go with… the possibilities are endless!

3. Tie Your Contest Into a Current Event
Is your company/organization holding any type of online/internet promotion?  This is a perfect way to incorporate it with a Facebook contest!  For example, if you’re holding an online Easter-themed scavenger hunt promotion where visitors have to find a hidden Easter Egg which is located someplace on your website, the first fan who finds and clicks on it will be your contest winner!  Keep in mind: this can easily work with other types of events as well, not just online promotions.

Need more Facebook contest ideas?  Want Odds On to run and facilitate one for you (we’ll even create your artwork!), while you sit back and watch the ‘likes’ and engagement roll in?  Whatever the case may be, be sure to give us a call today at 888-827-2249… or email us!  You can also befriend Odds On Promotions on Facebook!

PA Baseball Team Holds Hit for The Cycle Promotion With a Twist!

Looking to increase fan engagement and turnout at your next baseball game… or even for the entire season?  This Pennsylvania baseball team is doing exactly that, by holding a Hit for the Cycle promotion!

This isn’t any ordinary Hit for the Cycle promotion, however — not only is it going to be a season-long promotion, but one lucky fan from each home game during the promotional period will be selected at random to actually be able to choose a designated player to hit for the cycle!

That’s right: if the player the fan chooses scores a single, double, triple and homerun during the specified game, they’ll win $25,000… compliments of Odds On Promotions!

“Having the fan choose the player to hit for the cycle is a win-win situation”, explains Linda Thomson, Sports Promotion Specialist with Odds On.  “Not only does it make the fan feel especially included during the promotion, but it’s a cheaper solution if you’re on a budget!”
