Retail Promotions a Success at Jewelry Stores!

retail promotions - video scratch and winLooking for a great retail holiday promotion?  This May we assisted three jewelry store locations in running a “diamond” themed promotion using Odds On’s prize coverage during a Mother’s Day sales event!

During the week-long promotional period, at each of the three locations, customers had a chance to participate in Odds On’s Video Scratch and Win game, “Diamonds & Dollars”, simply for stopping by one of the stores!

Customers selected six spots on the countertop unit’s touchscreen, in hopes of revealing six winning symbols — which, in this case, happened to be a diamond coupled with a stack of bills.

If a customer happened to choose six spots on the touchscreen which all revealed winning symbols, they would have won $50,000… and Odds On Promotions would have paid for the prize!

While unfortunately, no one managed to select all six winning symbols, the stores drove  increased traffic to their locations during the week-long promotional period.

When it comes to using prize indemnity insurance in a retail environment, I always encourage clients to use a game that works well with their business theme. Odds On offers a variety of ready-to-run retail promotions, but custom options are always an option.

Weather Insurance Coverage Pays Off for Youth Baseball Team

weather insurance coverageLeawood, Kan. – Ever wonder if weather insurance is worth the investment?  Imagine if your golf tournament was an essential part of your annual budget and you woke up to an unseasonably late snowfall.

This May, the Kansas City Royals weren’t the only baseball team that had to cancel a big event thanks to a late season snowstorm. On May 3, 2013, the KC Rays, a travelling youth baseball team, had to cancel their annual golf fundraiser at the Prairie Highlands Golf Course in Olathe, after Winter Storm Achilles delivered an historic amount of late season snow to the Midwest and parts of the South.  The golf event, which raised just over  $7,000 for travel expenses and uniforms, is a critically important part of the team’s annual fundraising efforts.

However, thanks to Odds On Promotions, this cloudy situation ended up having a very silver lining. That’s because the KC Rays had taken out a weather insurance policy to ensure that the bad weather didn’t spoil their entire season. The team’s event was insured for $7,200, which meant that the season wouldn’t be a complete bust.

According to Branden Banks with Haas and Wilkerson, who helped the KC Rays secure their coverage, “This insurance coverage was a huge safety net for the team – there just wouldn’t have been enough time to recoup what the golf tournament generated. Our Odds On Promotions representative, Damien Anderson, kept me posted throughout the claims process. He was great to work with. Having this coverage took the burden off of everyone. The team was very grateful.”

Interested in protecting your event from whatever weather Mother Nature may throw your way? Give us a call today at 888-827-2249 for more information on weather insurance for your upcoming event or with any questions you may have!
