Promotional events include fundraising, food celebrations, award ceremonies, and birthday celebrations. Some events require fees or tickets, while others are free. Events can involve selling products, services, or performing shows, and can be themed or entertainment-based. Cookouts, picnics, and dinner parties can also be promotional events. Award ceremonies can involve customer participation and are heavily advertised.
Promotional events can include fundraising, food or birthday celebrations. Also, award ceremonies are sometimes types of promotional events. On occasion, companies incorporate more than one of these activities, holding events that raise funds, distribute food and award prizes. The general idea is to gain customers, brand recognition, or show customer loyalty, but while a significant portion of these types of promotional events are free, some require fees or tickets to attend. Sometimes paid promotional events are a different type of fundraiser, and other times fees are a way to cover the cost of the event.
Some promotional events involve raising funds by selling products, services or performing a show in the form of an interactive event. Sometimes fundraising events are themed according to what the money is being raised, but other times they have nothing directly to do with it. This type of promotional event can vary greatly, but generally a service such as photography is offered and a portion of the sales is devoted to the fundraising cause. Other times, some type of competitive event, such as a race or sport, is held so that people can sponsor or support participating members with a donation. Fundraising events can also be presented as entertainment, usually comedy or musical performances.
Cookouts, picnics or dinner parties can also be promotional events. Food is usually free to attract as many people as possible and there may be a speaker to raise awareness of a product or service. Additionally, there may be personalized napkins, tablecloths or signs to further promote the company.
Many promotional events celebrate birthdays, whether that be the start of a company or an employee’s birthday. On this day, companies sometimes offer special discounts, promotional gifts or other incentives for using their services or purchasing their products. The event is usually heavily advertised to generate buzz and attract customers. Some companies hold events like these every year, while others book them every five to ten years.
Promotional events can also be award ceremonies, which often involve customer or customer participation. For example, a company might give an award to the “most loyal customer” or “oldest customer”. Other times, promotional prizes are awarded to company employees, but customers are invited to the event. These events are often too advertised for customers to attend.
