Media Promotion: Radio Group Insures $50K VSW Contest at Trade Show!

media promotionsChris Gardiner, Northeast & Midwest Business Development Manager, is here to tell you how you can increase attendance to remotes, specifically trade show events, with a media promotion from Odds On Promotions!

Big Money Media Promotion –  for Pennies per Play

In celebration of this trade show’s 50th Anniversary event, one of my radio group decided to give one lucky attendee a chance at winning — you guessed it — $50K.  The client selected Odds On’s Video Scratch and Win promotion, “Show Me the Money!”

Attendees who showed up at the radio station’s booth had the opportunity to select 6 spots on the Video Scratch and Win game’s touchscreen.  If the six spots they selected each revealed a stack of bills, they would have been an instant $50,000 winner… and Odds On would have proudly written a check for the prize amount!  While unfortunately, there was no grand prize winner, the radio station and trade show both ended up handing out some fabulous auxiliary prizes to those who managed to reveal a lesser number of winning symbols, to ensure that no one left empty-handed that day!

Radio Station Promotion: $10,000 Number Match Contest

radio station promotion - number matchAre you a radio station looking to increase traffic to your website and/or a local sponsor location?  Chris Gardiner, Northeast & Midwest Business Development Manager with Odds On Promotions, is here to tell you how a radio station in the Midwest did exactly that… with a little help from one of Odds On’s radio station promotions: a Number Match!

During the 3-week-long promotional period, listeners had a chance to visit the radio station’s website and obtain a ‘certificate’ containing a unique, randomly-generated 5-digit number.  Listeners then printed off the certificate and brought it to the participating sponsor’s (in this case, a local car dealership) location.  Listeners would then enter their assigned 5-digit number into Odds On’s handheld verification unit to see if their number matched Odds On’s preselected winning number.  If there was a match then the listener would have won a 2-year lease on a 2013 Ford F-150, valued at $10,000… and Odds On would have paid for the prize!

Online Prediction Contest: Three Guesses for $10,000!

Online Prediction Contest - Philadelphia EaglesFor 5 days this December listeners of a Philadelphia sports radio station were directed to the station’s website to enter their email address and take their best guess as to who the next Head Coach, Offensive Coordinator and Defensive Coordinator of the Philadelphia Eagles would be… even though the current coach hadn’t yet been sacked!  On the final day of the promotion, 5 lucky registrants were selected to become eligible for a chance to win the insured prize: $10,000, compliments of Odds On!

And now we wait … until May 1, 2013, when it’s expected that the three positions will have been filled and if any of those 5 lucky contestants has selected a winning combination of names, they will score $10,000 paid for by Odds On Promotions.

As you can see, your online prediction contest can be based around, well, anything!  So, whether you want your listeners to predict winners of the GRAMMY Awards, Academy Awards, or the Men’s NCAA Basketball Tournament, Odds On can customize an online prediction contest for you within minutes!
