Casino Direct Mail Promotion Worth $100,000

Looking for an effective casino direct mail promotion idea? Need an efficient way of driving traffic to your casino property this year? Check how one casino property in the Midwest ended up doing exactly!

The property sent out 41,000 direct mail pieces each containing 6 lucky lotto numbers. The postcard invited them to the property on two separate dates during the month of February to participate in “The Big Draw”, Odds On’s lottery-style casino promotion.

Using one of Odds On Promotions Zoom Ball machines loaded with numbered balls, the draws were conducted multiple times on each of the specified promotion dates.

If the six numbered balls in the Zoom Ball machine’s “Zoom Zone” happened to match the six numbers on an individual’s mail piece, that lucky player would have been a $100,000 winner… and Odds On would have cut a check for the prize! Secondary prizes were also awarded during this casino promotion, compliments of the casino, for players who matched fewer lotto numbers.

Like this idea and want to encourage carded play and daily trips? Then you’ll love “The Big Draw” on Odds On’s Deluxe Kiosk unit! The larger-than-life presentation is phenomenal and will be sure to have your players hooked! It’s also a great way to increase time on device during the “drawing dates” increasing coin-in! Don’t have the room on the floor for our Deluxe Kiosk? Don’t sweat it — Odds On offers a Countertop kiosk as well. Check it all out on our website!

Get on a Roll for Tax R-E-L-I-E-F: Casino Dice Roll Promotion

Odds On Promotions Western Business Development Manager, Brent Kelly, shares a colorful way to drive increased casino play this April: a giant-prize dice roll promotion!

Dice Roll for Dollars

Let’s face it, this year, everyone could use a little tax relief. And that’s one of the reasons why I’m suggesting that companies consider marketing into Monday, April 15 – Income Tax Day – particularly since so many people now file their taxes electronically.

One the more entertaining ways to hand out a little relief is with a set of Odds On’s
custom 1″, 4″ or 8″ dice. In a dice roll promotion, you’ll give qualifiers the chance to spell a particular word – in this case – R-E-L-I-E-F, as in tax relief, or collect a winning combination of letters and numbers (e.g. 1-0-4-0-E-Z) in order to win $50,000, $100,000, $500,000 or more.

However, another creative way to customize your dice is to feature a different color on each die face – so that with every roll, your players spell RELIEF, reinforcing the theme of the promotion. Here’s just one way you might want to run a casino dice roll…

1. Draw a contestant every half hour from 3pm-Midnight on Saturdays and Sundays in April, giving players the chance to roll and win up to $1,040 or more in cash, slot play or points based on how many matching colored letters they roll.

2. In addition to your weekend rolls, on Monday, April 15, hold a special Tax RELIEF roll where you’ll draw 15 lucky players and give them each the chance to roll R-E-L-I-E-F in a matching color, and win $150,000, paid for by Odds On.

3. Make this one even more affordable – and more rewarding for your players, by teaming up with a local tax preparation service to assist with consolation prizes.

March Basketball Madness: An Online NCAA Bracket Promotion!

Looking for a way to capitalize on the March basketball madness, also know as the NCAA Men’s Championship Tournament, while increasing website traffic and gathering marketing information for your company’s database in the process? Want to award your customers, fans and/or players big for assisting in doing so? Then you’ll definitely want to know all about Odds On’s Online Championship Challenge basketball prediction promotion!

This “set it and forget it” online promotion makes running a rewarding basketball contest truly hassle-free! The contests includes a $1,000,000 grand prize that’s paid for by Odds On, a free second-chance Final 16 contest that keeps customers engaged until the end of the tournament, and a customizable interface featuring your logo and the ability to award self-insured prizes to both top-scoring and randomly selected contestants!

This particular March basketball promotion is on fire this season! In fact, we have quite a few clients who are embracing The Madness … among them, a casino property based out of the Midwest and a baseball team (yeah, that right, baseball) in the Southeast!

Both promotions, however, are unique in their own way…

The casino property will be having players pick up a unique promo code at the casino and then return the following day to access the online bracket and make their picks. Exclusive cash drawings will occur every hour as an incentive to keep players on-site. If any of the players end up guessing a select number of bracket winners, they’ll win $100,000 and Odds On will pick up the tab!

Meanwhile, the minor league baseball team will be insuring the promotion in order to stay engaged with their fans via their website, awarding the winner $50,000, paid for by Odds On. But that’s not all — if a lesser number of picks are accurately guessed, there will be smaller prizes of $5,000 (also paid for by Odds On) as well as a client-insured prize of $500!

Casino Marketing Idea: 6-Player Simultaneous Dice Roll Promotion

casino marketing idea - 6 person simulatenous dice roll

Need a great casino marketing idea? Have you considered a dice roll promotion? Check out what this casino property in the Southwest has in store for their players: a 6-person simultaneous dice roll contest!

Unlike a traditional dice roll promotion where a group of players each get to roll a set of a customized 1″ or 4″ dice for a chance to win cash and prizes, in this casino floor promotion, six players will each roll a single customized 8-inch die, all at the same time. (Talk about a crowd pleaser!)

Casino Marketing Idea of Month: Get On a Roll

According to Becky Bowman, Western Business Development Manager with Odds On Promotions, “I love this spin-off on the traditional casino dice roll promotion because every time you run the promotion, you’re giving six players the chance to win. And because it’s a dice roll, it’s easy to award auxiliary prizes.”

“For example”, explains Bowman, “if the one winning side/surface of the die contains your property logo and the other 5 sides contain a number of dots, the casino can hand out cash, free play or points to each participating player depending on the how many dots their die displays once they’ve rolled. And, of course if they roll the name of the casino, it will be time to write the big checks, compliments of Odds On’s affordable prize coverage.

Wondering how the prize money is at stake in this contest? This casino will be giving each of the 6 lucky “rollers” $25,000, for a total of a $150,000!
