The 25 year anniversary campaign for Keno saw increased sales and engagement across multiple channels. Key elements included celebratory messaging on Keno game screens in clubs from September 9th to October 9th, SMS messages to clubs thanking them for their support, and a promotion giving customers a chance to win $25,000 every month for 25 years for $1. The campaign resulted in a 25% increase in 10-spot sales and overall NSW turnover was up 3.5% during the period. Targeted communications via radio, print media, social media, and events at the ClubsNSW conference helped promote the anniversary.
