June is just around the corner, but there’s still time to plan engaging campaigns that will excite your members and drive new revenue throughout the month! Check out our suggestions below for businesses that would make excellent partners for your Father’s Day or summer contests, email blasts, and more.
Hardware Stores
Treat Dad to new tools for Father’s Day! Consider partnering with a local hardware store in your community to offer discounts on the equipment and supplies your listeners need to tackle those summer projects. You could even run a “Father’s Day Giveaway” contest and award the winner with a shopping spree at your sponsor’s store so they can stock up on the latest tools and gadgets.
Golf Courses
From the country club to miniature golf, local courses in your community make excellent advertising partners at this time of year. Approach a golf course near you to offer membership or game discounts in your next email blast. This type of campaign is simple to run and can not only generate new leads for your advertiser but can also help you grow your own database. With Father’s Day on June 17th, consider running a Father-Son Golf Contest, hosting members of your audience for a friendly competition on the green.
Bait & Tackle shops
Take dear old Dad fishing! Local bait or tackle shops make great partners for a fishing gear giveaway. Use our free Gone Fishin’ Giveaway campaign to generate revenue, and have your sponsor donate a gift card or free poles, tackle boxes, and more.
Local Baseball Teams
Whether you have a major or minor league team in your area, baseball is America’s favorite past-time, which makes it the perfect theme for a fun family campaign this summer. Run a sweepstakes for a chance to win free tickets, or partner with the team and a restaurant or grocery store to host a huge fan tailgate before the next home game.
Bowling Alleys
With summer just around the corner, the weather is heating up! Some of your audience may be looking for ways to cool down with fun indoor activities. Approach a local bowling alley to feature free shoe rentals, game discounts, and other exclusive offers in your June newsletter.
Movie Theaters
Pass the popcorn! From coupons for free or discounted concessions to a contest for free movie ticket packages, give your audience a chance to catch the hottest summer flicks by teaming up with a theater in your community. You could even monetize other content such as movie trivia or polls by attaching a local theater or drive-in as a sponsor.
