Part 4 - The Rewards

Well, touch wood its all gone swimmingly. Its a lot of hard working to get people to the hall and playing. If it all goes well that can be a reward in itself.

However, other benefits can be scored on occasion - although this is not guaranteed. If you've been in contact with the manager, and he realises the importance of a batch of new and fresh customers, he may lay some special treats on for your group.

Freebies For The Players

In the past I've been given free bottles of Bingo Bubbly for everyone. Bingo Bubbly is essentially perry, but is often given away free at clubs as prizes or offers. A couple of bottles on the table can quickly lubricate new guests and make the experience even more enjoyable.

They may be able to lay on some other special touches like welcome packs, vouchers or some decorations for the table. If you choose a special night then there can be gifts just for walking through the doors (to entice members on quieter nights).

One Bingo night outing, everyone in the group was awarded a set of Christmas themed Bingo dabbers in a carry case as we signed in to the club. Its not a massive thing, but its the kind of little touch that often leaves good impressions on the mind of people new to the world of Bingo.

A Win Or Two

Now, its what we're all there for - but its far from guaranteed, but just the thing to instantly hook the new player. Unfortunately there's no way to make it happen other than good luck, but if one of your group wins a good prize, everyone suddenly feels the need to come back very soon.

It could even be that the Bingo Gods smile on you for bringing them fresh meat - every time I've taken a group to a night I've also had a shout and won some money (much to everyone's consternation.) However, we would like to point out that there is no evidence to say this was the work of the Bingo Gods, and nothing more than mere fluke.

And Finally

It can be a lot of faff and worry getting a Bingo Night sorted out. As you've no doubt seen, there's lots of little things you need to consider and think about when you set the night up. With these things accounted for, you should be in for a fun night.

In my experience, a lot of the people you take will end up wanting go again and thank you for arranging it all. The reward of knowing you got them all there, got them playing and showed them a new world they never knew existed is what you get out of the night. It's not a win on the National kind of reward, but a sense of satisfaction none the less.
