Chamber of Commerce Attracts Shoppers with $25K Football Promotion

Looking to increase and encourage shoppers to spend more in your community?  Want to reward customers with a generous cash prize for doing so?  Then you’ll love what one chamber of commerce is doing for their retail members with this football promotion…

How this Football Promotion for Retailers Works:

Football Promotion - Wyoming CountyDuring the month of December, for every $50 spent (receipts required) at a participating retailers, customers received an entry into a special raffle.  Prior to the big game on February 3, 2013, one lucky individual’s name will be drawn.  If, during the NFL Championship game, a member of the receiving team returns a kickoff for a touchdown, then that lucky preselected shopper whose name was selected via raffle will instantly win $25,000 and Odds On Promotions will cut a check for the prize.

Promotion Tip: Draw additional names and give them auxiliary prizes (gift cards, football memorabilia, or whatever you choose) so that no one leaves empty-handed from the promotion!  For example, this particular client will be giving away a 43″ Samsung TV, recliner and $100 gift card!  Additionally, you can also implement an online promotion on each shoppers’ receipt so they can enter themselves into a “second chance” drawing for a chance to win while helping to create a database of shoppers!

Here’s how it will work: On the specified promotion date, one lucky casino player chosen at random will have the opportunity to win big during the big game!  If the opening kickoff of the game is returned for a touchdown, they’ll receive $100,000!

But it gets even better than that — Odds On is giving the preselected casino player two ways to win.  That’s because if the opening kickoff of 2nd half is returned for a touchdown as well, they’ll receive another $100,000, for a grand total of $200,000 in cash, paid for by Odds On!

RBC Decathlon Insures Football Target Toss

football target toss - RBC Decathlon

Mark Rubin, Wall Street’s Best Athlete, raised $9,438 for pediatric cancer research.

On July 29, 2012, Wall Street came together at Columbia University’s Wien Stadium to raise money for the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and to crown Wall Street’s Best Athlete during The RBC Decathlon with a football target toss.

The RBC Decathlon, which recognizes and rewards fundraising alongside athletic prowess, gave qualifying participants the chance to prove their skills in such events as pull-up, bench-press and the 40-yard dash.  Adding to the excitement, one lucky decathlete even got the chance to toss a football and win a $170,000 Aston Martin Vantage convertible, courtesy of Aston Martin Long Island.

In the Aston Martin Long Island Football Throw, each competitor was given 3 tosses and were scored based upon both distance and accuracy of their shots.  For example, a 50-yard throw that landed 5 yards from The Decathlon’s target would have been recorded as a 45-yard throw.  The decathlete with the longest toss, Michael Bissmeyer, won the the chance to throw the football through a target opening and win the Aston Martin.  While Bissmeyer didn’t quite have the perfect spiral, he did head home with bragging rights for having the longest, most accurate toss of the day.

Of course the really big news from this event was how much money was raised for the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center!  The RBC Decathalon raised a very impressive $1.278 million to support pediatric cancer research.

“To incorporate a game-of-chance as a component to this fundraising event elevates the competition and level of intrigue.  Working with Odds On Promotions and Zak is great; the process is simple and straightforward,” notes Dave Maloney, Executive Producer of the RBC Decathlon.
