Coffee Break
Panel Discussion: Multi-Jurisdictional Games, promotional campaigns, and marketing strategies Creating truly national brands requires national advertising, marketing, promotion, and distribution. Forging consensus among 44 + lotteries requires compromise, and the conviction that the goals are worth the effort. Some might ask: Why should we do that when our markets are confined to the boundaries of our state - and our state statutes, gaming cultures, and consumer attitudes all vary from state to state, and certainly from region to region. Why is it so important for Lottery Directors to work hard to create nation-wide branding and promotional programs? Multi-state initiatives provide economies of scale not achievable on an individual state basis. That is key to the TV Lottery Game Show. How relevant is that to the calculus of cost/benefits/ROI for other factors like developing new games, and new promotional and branding initiatives? What are some actionable ideas for additional nation-wide promotions and marketing campaigns?

Thursday, September 11
9:00 am Tom Delancenserie, Vice President Sales, Florida Lottery
Panel Discussion: Content Marketing is being used to build a deeper connection with your customer. Connecting Lottery with a new generation of consumers means thinking and feeling like them - and building relationships based on that emotional connection. It’s about telling a story more than selling. It’s about re-branding, re-shaping our image so that everyone feels that Lottery “is for people like me”, it’s about integrating digital technology and retail merchandising strategies so that we are talking with our customers rather than at them so that consumers embrace Lottery as part of who they are and want everyone to know it. How is Lottery evolving its approach to create this emotional connection that drives sales? How can Lottery leverage the promotional power of the Internet to drive Retail sales. How can marketing and promotional strategies integrate the on-line and off-line worlds to drive sales at land-based Retail?

Panel Discussion: Bridging the gap between the online and off-line worlds
Lottery and its retailers both want to drive sales performance by consolidating their position with current customers and attracting new customers. Lottery has always been a powerful driver of store traffic in the off-line world. How can Lottery do the same in the on-line world? How can Lottery and its retailers work together to build the omni-channel model that is so key to accomplishing our shared objectives? Retailers know they need to connect with their consumer via Internet and Mobile app’s and are doing that. How can Lottery help them? How can Lottery consolidate its position as a valued partner to its retailers, while promoting the adoption of the Internet channel to connect with the consumer?
