Conditional Rebate Worth Over $1,000,000 Insured by Furniture Store

Check out how this furniture store in California increased traffic to their locations and generated sales in the days leading up to Super Sunday using a sports related conditional rebate promotion insured by Odds On Promotions.

In the weeks leading up to Super Sunday, customers who made purchases at the furniture store had the chance to win a 100% rebate, if the 49ers shut out the Ravens on game day! That’s right, if the 49ers held their opponent to zero, customers would PAY zero… compliments of Odds On!

According to Zak Woodhead, Risk Manager with Odds On Promotions, “Conditional rebates are a great way to generate revenue and traffic — especially when you center it around a huge national sporting event such as Super Sunday.”

Woodhead noted, “Of course a conditional rebate doesn’t need to be sports-based. Conditional rebates can be weather-based as well. For example, if it reaches 100 degrees or more on a specified promotional date, customers can receive their purchases free – or if a certain amount of snowfall occurs on x date, customers can get a 100% rebate on items purchased during the promotional period. There are many different possibilities when it comes to conditional rebates, which makes them one of my favorite retail promotions for our clients.”

Newspaper Promotion Insured in Mid-Atlantic

Are you in the newspaper industry? Looking for a great newspaper promotion to help increase readership and drive traffic to sponsor locations in the process? Then you’ll definitely appreciate this holiday promotion that a newspaper company in the Mid-Atlantic insured with Odds On Promotions…

How This Holiday Newspaper Promotion Worked…

In the month of December, each Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday’s newspaper contained an insert which featured 6 extravagant holiday gifts. Readers were directed to put the 6 holiday gifts in the order of their choice and drop it off at one of six participating local sponsor locations, for a chance to win $50,000 in prizes!

At the conclusion of the entry period, the newspaper randomly selected one list from each of the six sponsor locations to see if any of the reader’s had placed their items in the same order as Odds On’s preselected winning order. While none of the selected entries featured the winning order, the promotion drove valuable foot-traffic during the holiday shopping season while allowing the newspaper to showcase selected sponsors and their merchandise.

How this Football Promotion for Retailers Works:

For example, this particular client will be giving away a 43″ Samsung TV, recliner and $100 gift card! Additionally, you can also implement an online promotion on each shoppers’ receipt so they can enter themselves into a “second chance” drawing for a chance to win while helping to create a database of shoppers!
