Buddy the Elf Day: Promotion for Radio Stations

elfRadio Stations: December 18th has finally arrived, which means “Buddy the Elf Day” is upon us!  Did you know that you can turn a fun ‘holiday’ or any day into a giant-prize promotion that will boost your TSL and CUME?

It starts with an on-air “Phrase That Pays” qualifier.  During your targeted dayparts, announce the specific phrase (or in this case, question) that callers will need to answer with when they are called by your station.  If they answer appropriately, then they’ll be invited to a station and/or sponsor-hosted party where one lucky finalist will be given the chance to win a life-changing prize.

ornamentsIn this case, since it’s a holiday promotion, your finalist could participate in a Lucky Ornament Pick, getting the chance to choose x of x holiday ornaments, each of which is paired with a corresponding Lucky Envelope.  If the Envelopes contain a winning combination of symbols, then your finalist will be the grand prize winner and Odds On Promotions will pay for the prize of your choice!

Bingo Supplier Insures $10,000 Lucky Envelopes Promotion

A new client of ours here at Odds On Promotions has sure surprised us!  Most of us assume that a bingo supplier would want to insure a bingo promotion … but this is not at all the case with this Midwest client, who will instead, be insuring a Lucky Envelopes promotion at a local bingo hall to help fundraise for a local school’s youth baseball team!

On the 5 specified promotion dates, one lucky randomly chosen attendee will have the opportunity to choose from 3/30 envelopes.  The envelopes will be split into 3 sets of 10.  If the attendee is able to choose the correct winning envelope from each set of 10 envelopes, they’ll be an instant $10,000 winner… and Odds On will pay for the prize!

Odds On’s Lucky Envelopes contest is a great way to increase traffic and generate excitement.  And here’s a fun alternative that would tie in perfectly with a bingo theme: A Lucky Envelopes promotion where participants must collect 5 separate envelopes which contain the letters B, I, N, G & O.  If a participant of the promotion collects all 5, they’d be an instant winner and Odds On would pay out!

Looking for an actual bingo contest to insure at your bingo event?  No problem!  Odds On’s Bonus Prize Bingo promotion is right up your alley.  Here’s how it works:  During  regularly scheduled pattern games, you’ll sell additional “Bonus Prize” cards and charge players whatever amount you desire.  If one of your players obtains the pattern in play on a “Bonus Prize” card before a certain number of predetermined calls, they’ll win a “Bonus Prize”, compliments of Odds On Promotions!  And the best part about Bonus Prize Bingo is that you only pay for the cards you sell… and they only cost pennis per card.
