Prize insurance gives marketers the ability to offer spectacular, attention-grabbing prizes that can be used to amplify engagement, create foot-traffic, motivate consumer behavior, generate sales, boost donations and increase publicity for a flat fee.

Bingo Promotion: $100K Sizzlin’ Hot Zoom Ball

Are you a bingo hall looking to target those days and times with lower traffic and play ? Odds On’s prize indemnity insurance and traffic-driving casino promotions are designed to help you generate incremental gaming revenues. Evelyn Golding, Southeast Business Development Manager with Odds On Promotions, explains how one property in the South did exactly that.

During the specified promotional period, players had a chance to participate in one of Odds On’s most attention-grabbing contests — a Zoom Ball promotion! The summer-themed “Sizzlin’ Hot” Zoom Ball machine consisted of white and red balls. If a player managed to get 6 red balls into the machine’s “Zoom Zone”, then they’d leave an instant $100,000 winner that day… compliments of Odds On!

“While we do insure actual bingo promotions, such as our Bonus Prize Bingo promotion, it’s always a good idea to ‘mix things up’ every once in a while, the noise of the ball blower coupled with the flashing LED lights created a lot of hype. Plus, Zoom Ball allows you to award your players with smaller, sponsor-insured prizes for collecting fewer winning balls in the machine’s Zoom Zone,” notes Golding.

Whether it’s Bonus Prize Bingo or any one of our many available stock Zoom Ball themes, feel free to give one of our marketing specialists a call today at 888-827-2249 or email us. We can find the perfect promotion for your bingo hall that will have your players going wild!

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.

Fishing Promotion Insured by Montana Insurance Agency

Thinking about insuring a fishing promotion at your upcoming tournament?

When people think about the kinds of fishing promotions they can insure, most automatically look at running a state record contest or a matching weight promotion.

But Odds On has a variety of contests and promotions that can be customized to suit your fishing event including Dice Rolls, Lucky Envelopes contests and even a brand new game called “Casting for Cash.”

Casting for Cash is a customizable Video Scratch & Win promotion that will allow you to give every angler in your event the chance to win a variety of insured and self-sponsored prizes! If a lucky tournament participant happens to “reel” in 6 winning symbols on the game’s touchscreen, they will take home a grand prize, paid for by Odds On Promotions.

A Fishing Promotion for Everyone in Your Tournament

An insurance agency in Montana recently teamed up with a local tournament giving every angler in the event the chance to win a brand new fishing boat, valued at $35,000, for selecting 6 spots on the Video Scratch & Win game’s touchscreen. While there wasn’t a grand prize winner, the fishing tournament was a success and there were several close calls, so the tournament awarded a number of self-sponsored prizes for those anglers who found fewer than 6 winning symbols.

Interested in learning more about Casting for Cash? Give Odds On Promotions a call today at 888-827-2249 for a free, no-obligation quote! Or, you can email us for more information or with any questions you may have!

Golf Contests at the Toshiba Classic: Over $1,000,000 Insured!

We’re happy to announce that Odds On Promotions, as well as our sister company, Hole In One International, both teamed up to help insure a couple of fabulous golf contests at the Toshiba Classic this year! One on March 12, 2013, and the other will occur on March 17, 2013.

You may remember last year when we insured the Shot From the Top during the Toshiba Classic, which was insured for $10,000. This time, they upped the ante quite a bit… and insured two separate golf contests which were worth over $1,000,000 in cash and prizes, compliments of Odds On Promotions and Hole In One International.

Golf Contests: Ball Within a Circle & Million Dollar Shootout

The first golf contest was a Ball in the Circle promotion, which occurred on March 12, 2013. The contest consisted of five teams. Each team contained one tour professional, one celebrity, and one media member. Each of them teed off from the 10th hole at the renowned Newport Beach Country Club. If the golf ball came to a complete rest within the circle on the green, that player would have been awarded $50,000… compliments of Odds On Promotions! That’s five times the prize value of last year’s contest! And it gets even better…

A Million Dollar Shootout will also be held on March 17th, where two amateur golfers and one tour professional will have a chance to take a shot from the 185-yard hole #17 at Newport Beach Country Club for a chance to win $1,000,000, compliments of Hole In One International, should they end up acing the hole and making a hole in one! Needless to say, we can’t wait to see how that golf contest ends up playing out and we hope to be privileged enough to insure a golf contest at next year’s Toshiba Classic as well!

Golf contests can be insured anywhere, any place, any time and are not only a great way to increase excitement, but increase fundraising dollars as well. No matter what your specific goals happen to be, give Odds On Promotions a call at 888-827-2249 and we’ll help you come up with a golf contest that is best suited for your company/organization’s needs.
