It’s that time of the year again! The 2024 NFL season is officially back in full swing, and it could be your newest avenue toward more corporate successes.
Think about it. When was the last time that you went to the break room in your office and there wasn’t a group of people huddled around the microwave talking about the company’s fantasy football league or how much fun they had attending an NFL tailgate and game on Sunday?
Chances are that it was nearly two weeks ago, before the NFL season officially kicked off on Sept. 5th when the Kansas City Chiefs took on the Baltimore Ravens. The NFL season offers a clear opportunity for companies to capitalize on something that is widely loved throughout the United States and is the source of entertainment for millions of employees every single weekend.
But how?
The first way that companies can use the NFL season to their advantage is by booking tickets to NFL games to reward employees or customers. Nothing says “thank you for your hard work” or “thank you for your trust in our company” quite like three free tickets to a Primetime NFL game on Sunday night. Thanking employees or customers with tickets to events like these depicts that you care about them and gives them a chance to interact with other employees or customers at the game in a much less formal setting, building culture and offering memories that can be shared with others.
Sending employees or customers to the company’s suite at an NFL stadium is another way to make the most out of the 2024 NFL season. Here is where Best.Day.Ever. can step in and truly transform the overall experience for your company, its employees, and guests.
Each suite that Best.Day.Ever. hosts features a customized gamification that allows the guests to play a game within a game. Whether it is a squares challenge, a score-guessing competition, or some other customized game, gamification keeps guests engaged in the game, offers a unique conversation piece, and also displays your company’s commitment to detail and excellence.
Later in the experience Best.Day.Ever. then provides the perfect gifts for your VIP guests including signed memorabilia, team merchandise, and more. Guests are also served delicious food and receive excellent service. Company brandings and logos are also integrated into the suite’s space that convey attention to detail.
Instead of sending people to a game in person, another way that companies can take advantage of the NFL season is by implementing a companywide “pick ’em” challenge where employees simply pick which teams they think are going to win. Each week, the person with the most games correct wins some form of a prize. This type of challenge takes little time, little to no knowledge of specific players, and is always fresh because there are new games each and every week.
Later in the season a customized squares game could be set up for each team of employees on the Friday before the Big Game so that on Monday everyone can continue talking about what took place and what their favorite moments were.
