5 Door Prize Ideas to make your business stand out

Introduction: When exhibiting at a bridal show, one of the best ways to grab a bride’s attention is through door prizes announced throughout the show. At Rock The Aisle Bridal, we announce a door prize every 7 minutes! The more door prizes your business gives out, the more times your company’s name will be announced throughout the entire show! Are you unsure what types of door prizes will be right for your company? We provided some great ideas that can help you tailor what type of door prize you want to give away!

5 Door Prize Ideas to make your business stand out

# 1 Free products/ services a. Planning a wedding can get expensive for a bride, which is why most brides come to bridal shows so that they can win a free product or service. By giving something away for free will entice the bride to use your business for more than just the free product your company is providing.

b. For example, a photographer can give away a free engagement shoot as their door prize. Once the bride does the engagement shoot, it is more likely for the bride to book with the same photographer. Check out our website for a complete show listing www.rocktheaislebridal.com

# 2 Discount products services a. If your company cannot give away a free product or service, a discount for a product or service is a great way to get your brand out there. When giving away a discount, it is better to have a monetary discount rather than a percentage.

b. For example, a DJ can take $200 off a musical package valued at $600. It sounds better saying “ $200 off” then “30% off” of a product or service. Over 100 Business choose Rock The Aisle Each year to book more weddings! Call us today for a free consultation! 866.306.3592

#3 Gift Certificate a. Everyone loves receiving gift certificates, especially brides! Guests of the bride will love that your company is giving away gift certificates so that they can go to your company for more!

b. For example, a florist could give away $150 for a bridal bouquet. The gift certificate does not have to cover a complete cost of a product so your company can still make a profit from it. Also, if the bride is getting her bouquet from one florist, it is unlikely for her to choose a different florist to do her bridesmaids bouquets!

#4 Gift Basket a. A bride loves nothing more than leaving a bridal show with an actual prize! Gift baskets are an inexpensive and creative way to market your company through the door prizes. Before the DJ announces who won the basket, they can announce what is included in the basket so all the brides can see what your company has to offer.

b. For example, a wedding coordinator can make a “ Day of the Wedding Emergency Kit”. This basket explains how the wedding coordinator will pay attention to detail of a brides wedding like she did the basket. Over 100 Business choose Rock The Aisle Each year to book more weddings!

# 5 Make it personal a.Personalizing products or services is a great way to make the bride feel like she is your company’s most important client. Bride’s love when a company can add personal touches to their special day! Almost any wedding professional can personalize a product or service to a particular bride. A bakery can give away a personalized groom cake with the purchase of a wedding cake. The venue that the bridal show is being held in can give away a personalized runner for the bride’s wedding!

in Conclusion:

Door prizes are a great marketing tool, especially if you did not get a chance to make a personal connection with every bride that went to the show. Once your door prize is given to the bride, it gives your business an opportunity to create a connection and do more business with the bride than just the door prize. At Rock the Aisle Bridal, we want to get your company as much exposure throughout the show by doing door prizes!
