Christmas has been and gone and it’s now time to start planning for the year ahead. If you’re like us (and something tells us you are), you know there’s no greater satisfaction than ticking off your “To Do List” months in advance – so to help we thought we’d give you a bit of inspo for 2023! Get your year in order with our guide to planning an entire year of prizes and incentives…
Winter Sun
The January blues are a real thing so why not bring some sunshine into the lives of your customers, staff or trade partners with a healthy dose of winter sun! Whether it’s a long haul Caribbean escape or a quick hop to the Canary Islands, a bit of vitamin D is just what the doctor ordered to soak away the stress of the previous year and brighten up your prize promotions. And if you want to skip the airport queues, why not treat your winners to a New Year makeover with a shopping spree or a weekend at a luxury spa!
Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s, Galentine’s or Malentine’s – however your winners are celebrating make it extra special with a top line prize! Nothing says romance quite like a trip to Paris – picture a moonlit stroll along the Champs-Elysees, a relaxing boat trip on the Seine or dinner overlooking the Eiffel Tower. If your budget is slightly smaller, an indulgent spa break or Michelin star dinner never fails to disappoint, and if it’s a night in your consumers are after, then why not spoil them with a pamper hamper full of goodies and surprises!
Easter
The days are getting longer, and the temperatures are getting warmer – with Easter just around the corner it’s the perfect time to reward your winners to a long weekend away to one of Europe’s famed capitals. Whether it’s the stunning beaches of Barcelona, the magical waterways of Amsterdam or the ancient history of Rome, spring into Easter with a sunny mini-break! Or, for a consumer incentive that’s sure to bring smiles to younger faces why not create the ultimate family Easter egg hunt kit, with decorations, colourful baskets and – of course – plenty of chocolate treats!
Summer
Pack your bags and dust off your flip-flops – summer is a time for vacationing! Whether it’s an all-inclusive five-star getaway, a getaway to a picturesque Grecian paradise or tickets to a top summer festival, there’s so much choice for your summer prize promotions, whatever your budget! Your winners don’t even need to leave the country to celebrate everyone’s favourite season, with beautiful glamping and luxury lodges scattered across the UK there are no end of options for planning your summer incentives. And for those that prefer the comfort of home, give your winners the chance to fire up the BBQ and enjoy the sunshine with the ultimate backyard bundle, including garden furniture, swimming pools or everything they need to make their very own garden bar!
Halloween
The leaves are falling and its officially pumpkin-spiced time! Give your winners a scare this spooky season with the ultimate night-in movie bundle including top-of-the-range tech that will have them hiding behind the sofa! Or, if you’re looking to add a ‘treat’ to your autumn sales incentives, then why not give away a seat on one of the most iconic ghost tours in America’s infamous Salem, or perhaps a trip to Mexico for the annual Day of the Dead Celebration! Hotel and flight included, (super)naturally.
Christmas
Before you know it, it’s time for the festive celebrations to begin again! From family trips to Lapland to see Santa and Rudolph, to skating round the famous Christmas Tree at New York’s Rockefeller centre or cosying up in a glass igloo under the Northern Lights, Christmas is the perfect excuse for a prize promotion! Sprinkle some magic on your winners’ festive season with a once-in-a-lifetime holiday, or help them prepare for the big day with gifts for the entire family – from the year’s must have gadgets, to tech bundles, fashion and stocking fillers. We can even arrange a complete Christmas makeover for your winner’s home for that perfect Instagram moment!
Events
Sought after tickets to concerts, festivals and sporting events always make for an exciting prize promotion, whether it’s donning a top hat for Royal Ascot or a flower crown for the Isle of Wight festival! Give your winners a once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience the best of US sport with tickets to a Knicks game at Madison Square Gardens, a chance to witness the fastest 2 minutes in sport at the famed Kentucky Derby (complete with a road trip to Nashville), or even tickets to the greatest sporting event in history, the world-renowned Superbowl! Or, give your winners a chance to pave their own way with tickets to their choice of concert, comedy show or theatre production!
