Hockey Promotions Could Result In a Lexus Lease For Up To 5 Fans!

hockey promotionsWhen this particular NHL team reached out to me, wanting to insure five fabulous hockey promotions, I was ecstatic!  Especially since it was initially insured for just a couple of games!

That’s right, they added three more days to the promotional period!  Five separate red line shootout promotions occurred – one per game –  during the month of May…

Fans, selected at random via registration forms at these playoffs, were given the opportunity to come down onto the ice and make not one, but two hockey shots from behind the red line, through a target opening, for a chance to win big… compliments of Odds On Promotions!  And the prize was definitely a generous one – a local Lexus dealership teamed up with this NHL team to insure a 2-year lease on a brand new Lexus IS.

Don’t Exclude Anyone In Your Hockey Promotions!

But wait, it gets even better: Each randomly drawn fan who took their two shots at each of the five games all had the chance to win — the NHL team insured the 2-year lease for each and every contestant at each and every game, not wanting to risk excluding anyone from having a chance to win!  Great call on their part. After all,  you wouldn’t want to have to call a “Game Over” if the fan who takes the first shot at the first game ended up making the red line shot with four games to go!

Golf Promotions Make Great Fundraisers

golf promotionsLooking for a great fundraising idea that will draw a crowd?  How about insuring a few golf promotions?  That’s what this nonprofit medical center in the state of Kansas did, by insuring a few unique golf shootout contests, with the assistance of not only Odds On Promotions, but our sister company, Hole In One International.

Here’s how the golf promotions worked: Come the day of the golf tournament, 75 of the players, invited via exclusive invitation, participated in a golf shootout contest, where if any of them made a hole in one from the specified 155-yard par 3 hole, they would win $50,000… compliments of Hole In One International.

While unfortunately, no one ended up making the prize shot, there was still good news to be had.  That’s because 20 of the those players were invited to come back and participate in a second golf shoot out contest — this time, from the par 3 18th hole, which measured 165 yards.  The players were qualified in various ways: the 16 golfers who were closest to the pin from the prior shootout contest were invited back, 2 players qualified via auction, 1 via putting contest, and 1 via a chipping contest.

golf promotions 2 hole in oneIf one of the twenty golfers managed to ace the 18th hole, they would have landed $1,000,000 for themselves and $1,000,000 for the medical center, which focuses on cancer research and treatment.  That’s a cumulative $2,000,000 prize… paid for by Odds On Promotions!

While no golfers managed to make a hole-in-one, money was still raised for the medical center and fun was had by all.  Make your next golf tournament or golf outing a huge success by advertising the chance to win big, compliments of Odds On Promotions!  Want every single player in your tournament to be given a chance to ace a hole and win the big bucks?  Then check out our hole in one insurance!  Give us a call today at 888-827-2249 for a free, no-obligation quote on any golf promotions of your choice… or email us for more information or with any questions you may have!  We’d love to help make your next big fundraising event a success with one of our golf promotions.
