$25K Prize Vault Promotion for Titanic-3D Screening

Here’s a great way to get bigger bang for your marketing buck: piggyback or theme your promotion around a major media event!  Whether it’s a movie release, movie opening, concert, you name it, if you’re looking to increase foot traffic, having a ‘themed’ promotion won’t just increase your turnout, but the fun and excitement for everyone involved as well!

Here’s a terrific example from an Indiana-based communications company, who based their promotion around the new 3-D screening of the original 1997 movie, Titanic.  In celebration of the advanced screening, a local jeweler teamed up with a local radio station to hold a prize vault promotion the week prior to the screening, encouraging listeners to try their luck at “cracking the code.”

Odds On Promotions programmed a randomly selected 5-digit number into a handheld unit, which comes mounted to the top of the plexiglass vault.  If the number the contestant entered in matched Odds On’s preselected number, then they would have been an instant $25,000 winner!  What made this promotion even better is the fact that participants who attended the actual screening were also able to participate in the promotion as well!

Have an idea for a themed promotion of your own?  Don’t forget to contact Odds On for your free, no-obligation prize vault quote!  Give us a call at 888-827-2249 or email us!  We’ll be happy to not only provide you with the cost of the insurance, but some great ideas for your next upcoming promotion as well!

Indy 500 Promotions for Any Business

Looking for Indy 500 promotions? We’ve got ’em!

At 12 p.m. EST, on Sunday, May 27, the best drivers in the world will speed into the history books as they race for the checkered flag in the 96th running of the Indianapolis 500.

And this year, for the first time since 1996, all entries will feature turbocharged engines and will be brand new model-year chassis!

Want to turbocharge your marketing? Why not give your customers the chance to bank a brand new car or a cool $10K, $100K or even $1,000,000 with a little help from Odds On Promotions.

Here are a few ways you can turn “the greatest spectacle in racing” into a great traffic driver for your business this May…

500 Finishing Order Fortune:  Invite your customers to predict the correct finishing order of the race. If a lucky contestant calls it right, they’ll drive home a winner!

Racing for Riches: In this multi-player racing theme game three contestants go head to head for a chance to win up to $1,000,000, paid for by Odds On Promotions. “Drivers” take turns selecting and opening Lucky Envelopes revealing how far they can advance around the track. The first “driver” to cross the finish line opens a final envelope to reveal their prize. If theirs was the lucky preselected car, they’ll win your grand prize and Odds On Promotions will pick up the tab.

Greatest Race, Greatest Rebate: Give race fans the ultimate incentive to make a purchase … the chance to get a full or partial rebate on their purchase if your selected driver takes the checkered flag.

Oklahoma Bank Insures $10K Prize Vault Promotion

Are you a business with a branch/location opening up?  Here’s a surefire way to drive traffic to your new location: let everyone know you’re officially “open for business” by holding a prize vault promotion at your premises, just as this bank based out of Oklahoma will be doing!

Beginning Leap Year Day, each customer who visits the opening branch during the specified promotional period will be given a chance to enter a 5-digit number of their choice into one of Odds On Promotions‘ handheld verification units which is attached to the vault.  If they happen to guess correctly and their number exactly matches the 5-digit number Odds On has preselected, the prize vault will open… to reveal $10,000 in cold, hard cash!

That’s right: the prize vault will contain a whopping 100 Benjamins!  The fact that this particular client is placing actual money inside of their prize vault is definitely an exciting addition to the promotion.  And with on-site security, there need not be any worries about protecting the assets!
