Why Drop to Win Works for Your Brand

Promotional games succeed when they create a hands-on, memorable experience. Drop to Win achieves this by combining tactile gameplay with visual branding. Participants drop chips down a vertical pegboard, with the chips bouncing unpredictably to land in scoring slots—creating excitement and anticipation with every play. Unlike passive marketing materials, this game encourages attendees to engage physically, ensuring your logo, colors, and messaging are noticed and remembered.

• High engagement: Interactive games like Drop to Win make attendees stop, play, and stay at your booth longer, increasing brand impressions.
• Memorable brand touchpoints: Every chip drop is a moment where your logo and messaging are front and center.
• Customizable surface: The 20″ x 16″ imprint area allows for CMYK four-color process logos, making your brand impossible to miss.
• Event-ready: Comes fully assembled with six 1.75″ black scoring chips, ready to play out of the box.

Perfect for Trade Shows, Corporate Events, and Marketing Activations

Whether your goal is to increase booth traffic, promote a new product, or simply create a fun experience, Drop to Win fits seamlessly into any promotional strategy. Use it to:

1. Draw a crowd: Its vertical pegboard design creates a visually appealing centerpiece for any booth or tabletop display.
2. Educate while entertaining: Incorporate trivia or product questions, turning each chip drop into an opportunity to share brand information.
3. Reward your audience: Offer prizes or branded merchandise for winning slots, reinforcing positive brand association.
4. Enhance social sharing: Encourage attendees to take photos or video clips of the game in action to share on social media, boosting your organic reach.

Marketing professionals will appreciate the versatility of Drop to Win. It works for indoor events, outdoor tailgates, retail activations, or even as part of an employee engagement campaign. For agencies seeking a new promotional game that stands out, Drop to Win is a reliable choice.

Customization Options and Branding Strategies

Effective branding goes beyond placing a logo on a game. With Drop to Win, you can:

• Full-color imprint: Utilize the 4-color CMYK process to fully showcase your brand identity.
• Color coordination: Customize chip colors to match your brand palette or event theme, making the visual experience cohesive.
• Strategic placement: Use the large 20″ x 16″ imprint area to highlight messaging, promotions, or product launches prominently.
• Cross-promotional tie-ins: Pair Drop to Win with other branded items like logo’d poker chips, custom prize wheels, or mini basketball hoops to create an event ecosystem that drives interaction and social sharing.

Creative Use Cases for Maximum Engagement

Here are a few unique ways to leverage Drop to Win beyond a simple game:

• Lead generation: Have attendees enter their contact info to receive a chip or participate in a contest, providing qualified leads for follow-up campaigns.
• Sales incentives: Reward top-performing salespeople with a branded Drop to Win game at internal events, creating fun competition and recognition.
• Seasonal campaigns: Tailor the pegboard and chips with holiday themes, color schemes, or seasonal messaging to tie into larger promotional strategies.
• Cross-activation games: Combine with other promotional games from our branded games collection like Chiphole or light-up Drop to Win for multi-game event zones that keep attendees engaged longer.

Setting Up Drop to Win for Event Success
