Basketball Bracket Promotion That Nets Results!

basketball bracket promotion - championship challengeLike the idea of offering your audience a $1,000,000 basketball promotion, but don’t want to manage a bunch of paper?

Banish those bracket forms and eliminate the hassle of hand-tallying, while increasing traffic to your store, website and/or next live appearance with Championship Challenge, Odds On Promotions‘ turnkey online basketball bracket promotion for radio stations, TV stations, newspapers, retailers and casinos.

Talk about easy!  You’ll select an attention-grabbing prize – up to $1,000,000 – and invite your audience to your website to register for a chance to win.

Once on your website, contestants will click a link to the custom contest page that’s branded for your business and make their picks.  If a lucky fan predicts a winning number of games, they’ll score up to $1,000,000 and Odds On Promotions will write the check!

According to Chris Gardiner, Northeast & Midwest Business Development Manager with Odds On Promotions, “This promotion has been very effective for a number of radio stations. Not only does it provide a variety of advertising and sponsorship opportunities including title sponsor, banner and video advertising on the game site, as well as consolation prize sponsorships, but it is a fun way to engage the audience; listeners can challenge and interact with each other as well as play against on-air talent.”

Brent Kelly, Odds On’s Southwest Business Development Manager sees Championship Challenge as a unique, “hands-free” way for casinos to run a basketball bracket promotion, “Many casinos love the concept of a bracket promotion but don’t want the hassel of managing the brackets … with this contest, no manual management is needed. What’s more, casinos  can qualify players in the days leading up to the Big Dance, distributing  a special access code at their player’s club booth, giving even the smallest of properties a great way to ‘pay’ for this ‘off-property’ contest!”

Evelyn Golding, Odds On’s Southeastern Business Development Manager notes, “For me the big bonus is what I like to call the  ‘Sweet 16 Second Chance’. This feature gives both radio stations and casinos the option of adding a second contest covering the last four rounds of play. This is not only a great way to get contestants that may have missed the first round engaged, it gives all participants a second chance to win big.”
