II. Championing Charity During Crisis: How Ditching Product-First Messaging Helped Propel the Arizona Lottery to a Record-Setting Sales Year Amid a Pandemic (12:15PM – 12:55PM)
For nearly 40 years, the Arizona Lottery (AZL) has existed as an organization committed to supporting vulnerable populations and making Arizona a better place to live by funding more than a dozen critical state programs — a message that all too often gets lost in the glitz of multi-million dollar jackpots and new games.

However, as the COVID-19 pandemic, this all changed. The “Whole Lot of Good” campaign all but abandoned product messaging, instead opting for new strategies and tactics that highlighted how playing the lottery helps the community. With new broadcast, digital and social media assets that showed customers just how far their money is going when they play the lottery, and, in a clever use of unclaimed lottery prize funds, social media giveaways that dispersed $200,000 in cash giveaways to Arizona frontline workers and other residents in need of a monetary boost. The results were staggering. Join us to hear more.

  • Operational and creative lessons learned during this rapid-response campaign.
  • Insights about organizing multiple marketing disciplines under one cohesive message and strategy.
  • Learn how to get teams willing and even inspired to step away from product-first advertising, despite discomfort.
  • Understand how both individual and large-scale touch points can both deepen relationships with loyal fans and win new ones.
