Why is giving away tickets a GREAT IDEA?

Giving away tickets as a promotion in a tourist town can be a smart move for a small business because it helps attract both locals and visitors, builds brand awareness, and increases foot traffic. Here’s why it works:

  1. Increases Visibility – Tourists are always looking for things to do, and a ticket giveaway creates buzz about your business. Even those who don’t win might become aware of your brand.
     

  2. Encourages Word-of-Mouth Marketing – Winners will likely share their experience with friends, family, or even on social media, providing free promotion for your business.
     

  3. Attracts Potential Customers – Even if only a few people win, many others will learn about your business and may decide to visit and pay for tickets themselves.
     

  4. Builds Goodwill – Giving something away creates a positive association with your brand and makes people more likely to support your business in the future.
     

  5. Generates Repeat Business – If the experience is good, those who attend might return or recommend your business to others, leading to long-term gains.
     

  6. Partnership Opportunities – You can collaborate with hotels, travel agencies, or other local businesses to distribute tickets, helping you tap into a larger audience.

    7.  Data Collection – If you require entrants to sign up with an email or follow your social media, you can grow your customer list for future promotions and marketing efforts.

Here are some effective ways to structure your ticket giveaway for maximum impact:

1. Social Media Contests

  • Like, Comment & Share: Ask participants to like your page, comment on a post, and share it for a chance to win.

  • Tag-a-Friend: Have users tag friends in the comments, increasing exposure to potential tourists and locals.

  • Photo Contest: Encourage participants to post a photo related to your business or town, using a special hashtag.

2. Partner with Local Businesses

  • Team up with hotels, restaurants, or tour companies to offer tickets as part of a package deal or as a special perk for their customers.

  • Place giveaway entry boxes at tourist information centers, cafes, or rental car locations.

3. Email Signup Giveaway

  • Require participants to enter by signing up for your email list, helping you build a customer database for future promotions.

  • Send a welcome email with a discount for those who don’t win, encouraging them to visit anyway.

4. In-Person Drawings

  • Hold a daily or weekly drawing where customers can enter by visiting your location. This increases foot traffic and engagement.

  • Offer a “second-chance” deal to non-winners, like a discount on tickets.

5. Limited-Time Social Media Engagement

  • Announce flash giveaways where people must act quickly to enter, creating excitement and urgency.

  • Use Instagram Stories or TikTok challenges to make it interactive.

6. Collaborate with Influencers & Travel Bloggers

  • Give a few tickets to local influencers or travel bloggers who will share their experience and drive more interest in your business.

7. Encourage Reviews & Check-Ins

Let participants enter by leaving a review on Google, Yelp, or TripAdvisor, or by checking in on Facebook.

Bonus Tip:Make the prize experience shareable—something people will want to post about (e.g., VIP seating, a behind-the-scenes tour, or a special package deal).
