Linda Thomson, Sports Promotion Specialist with Odds On Promotions<\/a>, is here today to share a great idea that this MiLB Team had, which can be incorporated into your next “big hit” promotion!<\/p>\n

At this particular MiLB stadium, a different Tom Cruise movie was featured during this outstanding 4-night\u00a0baseball event and attendees were able to score some fun, movie-themed loot at the same time!<\/p>\n

The first evening featured Top Gun<\/em>, where each attendee was given a set of aviators.
\nThe second evening was Risky Business<\/em>, where everyone got a pair of tightie whities.
\nNight number three featured Cocktail<\/em> — everyone got a shot glass.
\nThe final night, number four’s theme was Jerry Maguire<\/em>, where mini footballs were given.<\/p>\n

Once an individual collected all 4 pieces, they were able to come back for “Cruise Night”, where one lucky participant would win a cruise!<\/p>\n

Great promotion, right?\u00a0 What could possibly make it any better?\u00a0 An insured element, of course!\u00a0<\/strong> If you’re running a promotion, the last thing you want is to have to pay out any cash and\/or prizes out of your own pocket… so why not leave the risk in the hands of Odds On?<\/p>\n

The good news is that you don’t need to be a sports team in order to insure a promotion like this.\u00a0 No matter what type of business\/organization you may be, there’s a great way to turn a brilliant idea such as this one into an insured promotion.\u00a0 All you have to do is use movies and\/or themes that relate to your line of business!<\/p>\n

For example, pubs and bars may want to use movies such as Coyote Ugly, Casablanca, Road House <\/em>or Studio 54<\/em>.\u00a0 Keep customers coming back 4 nights in a row\u00a0to participate in your promotion by giving away memorabilia such as\u00a0a Fez (Casablanca<\/em>),\u00a0a cowboy hat (Coyote Ugly<\/em>), a copy of Dirty Dancing (RoadHouse<\/em>)\u00a0and a miniature disco ball (Studio 54<\/em>).\u00a0 Those who have managed to collect all 4 items will be put into a drawing to see which 1 individual will come back to participate in a Pick ‘Til You Win<\/a> promotion\u00a0where participants have a chance to win\u00a01 large-valued cruise and 2 smaller-valued cruises!\u00a0 \u00a0This same concept can be used for retailers and car dealerships alike — simply choose movies and tangible objects that\u00a0correlate with your industry.<\/p>\n

Casino properties can have a 50’s movie-themed promotion.\u00a0 Come in\u00a0on 5 specified\u00a0dates during the\u00a0month to collect a toy car with your casino logo (Grease<\/em>), miniature fake ball and chain (Jail House Rock<\/em>), white t-shirt (Rebel Without a Cause<\/em>), pair of fuzzy dice\u00a0(American Graffiti<\/em>) and a casino chip with a\u00a0smiley face on it (Pleasantville<\/em>).\u00a0 At the end of the month, those who have all 5 collectibles get to come back for a 50’s-themed VIP party where individuals will have a chance to participate in a Zoom Ball<\/a> promotion.\u00a0\u00a0If anyone sucks up 6 particular\u00a0balls into the “zoom zone”\u00a0(for instance, 5 displaying the Pleasantville<\/em> smiley face, plus a mega ball which serves as a multiplier), they’re\u00a0an instant $50,000 winner!<\/p>\n

Are you a media professional looking to\u00a0make a pitch to group of clients?\u00a0 Why not create a series of remotes built around a\u00a0group of movies,\u00a0albums, concerts – you\u00a0name it!\u00a0 And then distribute various prizes at live events over the course of a few weeks, with a final “party” at the end of the promotion.<\/p>\n

There are\u00a0endless possibilities\u00a0for creating a completely customized program based upon your products, your audience and your own creativity!\u00a0\u00a0 Give Linda Thomson, or any of our other sales reps a call today to learn more about\u00a0building your onw \u00a0“Collect to Be a\u00a0Qualifier\u00a0” contest. Pick up the phone\u00a0and dial\u00a0today at 800-771-0250<\/strong> or email us<\/span>.\u00a0 Whether you’re looking for pricing information or just stumped and need some ideas, we’re to help you with all of your promotional insurance needs!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
