Lucky 8 Could Be Lucky For Your Business - Olympic Fever Promotion Ideas

by Yvonne Russell on August 7th, 2008

In Chinese culture, 8 is a lucky number as it sounds like the word for money. So, it’s no coincidence that the Beijing Olympics starts at 8:00 p.m. on the 8th day of the 8th month, 2008.

Use the number 8 and the Olympics to create a buzz in your business with some special promotions e.g.

  • Buy 8, get one free
  • Every 8th customer gets a gift voucher or small prize
  • Red spot discount special at 8 minutes past the hour
  • Special Olympics themed deals on August 8th, 2008
  • Gold medal (gold spot) specials on some items or lines
  • Any other Olympics business promotion ideas?
  • How are you leveraging Olympic fever to create a buzz in your small business?
