Tip 18 is a unique door prize idea that doubles as publicity.
“I’ve got the golden ticket! I’ve got the golden ticket!”
Sorry – I couldn’t resist throwing a little Willy Wonka in the mix.
Seriously, though, do you need a little extra incentive to bring women to your next event?
I’ve got an idea for you!
Let them know you’ll be giving away a free ticket (or gift certificate toward) for your next big event!
Why?
- That big door prize may be just enough to get someone over the fence and into the fellowship hall for your next event.
- Giving away a ticket provides the opportunity to share about the event with those in attendance.
- Chances are they won’t want to attend alone and will find a friend to attend with them!
Even if your budget is tiny, it can be worth the investment to give away a free or deeply discounted seat.
Several times over the years our team has given away a ticket or certificate for our next big event.
One year we gave a $50 off gift certificate to our Fall Retreat (the total cost was over $200).
At one fellowship we gave away a free ticket to our Table Event.
May I strongly recommend that your team agree not to enter their names in the drawing? Give it to one of the women you are serving instead.
We made it a policy not to enter our team member names in any of our door prize drawings.
Your turn to share: Would your women be interested in winning a ticket to your next big event?

Anna, that’s a great idea! Thanks so much for sharing!
One year our ladies ministry approached local businesses to donate door prices, we had a gift certificate for a bouquet from the local florist, a certificate for a half hour massage and a local lady donated essential oil, it went over well.
