Casino Partnerships • OPM – Other Partnership Money! This is for the greater good of all partners! Casinos have traditionally larger marketing budgets and need interesting promotions to meet their goals. Many outlet centers are now close to gaming facilities which makes them ideal partners! • Starting a relationship with Casinos can be a daunting task and I hope the examples I show you today will arm you with successful ideas that you can present. • Being flexible is the most important advise that I can give when speaking to Casinos. Each Casino has internal rules and regulations that they need to follow.
Gift Card Buys –IN THE THOUSANDS $$$ • Almost every Casino has a player card program that rewards loyal players. • They need incentives that are unique and provide a high perceived value – The Outlet Mall Gift Card fits this need! Did I mention FREE ADVERTISING?
Casino Events with Outlets • Events that are held in partnership with the casino! • Special Fashion Shows to Players Club members, store demonstrations and even a scavenger hunt through the stores!
Casino Events with Outlets • Midnight Madness is a great opportunity for casino partnerships. • We have promoted FREE slot play with purchase, FREE rooms, event signage, eblasts, goody bag items, additional shuttle bus locations, public relations support and more!
Trade Agreements • Signage at the outlet center for the casino and vise versa! • Key card Inserts • Billboard trade for kiosk in the center.
Mid-Week Blues! Even Casinos suffer from the Mid-Week Blues! Incentives have been created to play and shop mid-week! It is as simple as Free rooms and cookies!
MGM Grand and Signature Towers • We approached MGM Grand about a shopping promotion. We then approached participating merchants. • They agreed to promote the program to their over 1.3 MILLION email database and on their website and with a social media campaign! We agreed to the same on our end! • Package includes 20% off room rates, $25.00 Gift Card from Last Call Neiman Marcus, $25.00 Gift Card from Bauer Fashion Eyewear , $25.00 Gift Card from Ultra Diamonds, Free Transportation, Green Saving Card and a Cookie Break . • WINNING!!!!
OPM • I have shown only Casino examples in this presentation. • Results from these programs have increased advertising exposure, increased traffic and increased sales and revenues for all partners. • We also work with shows, attractions, state parks, tourism agencies, etc...! • Stores can have direct contact. For example, Nike works directly with nearby golf courses on specific promotions. They also worked with Indian Casinos on the N7 promotions. Many times we broker this relationship as the developer to open these doors. • The concept of enhancing your marketing dollars, bringing customers into the center and into your store can be utilized in many formats.

Customer Retention Mitchell Brown Principal Mitchell Brown Marketing & Communications
Companies can boost profits by almost 100% by retaining just 5%more of their customers, whether you are a big 4 accounting firm, Microsoft or Olga’s Blintz & Borscht Parlor.” — Reichheld& Sasser
Customer retention obviously has profound implications for all business: Finding new customers costs 3-7 times more than keeping an existing one, and for many large companies, up to 95% of profits come from long-term customers.” — PwC
