Run a Christmas Giveaway for Your Employees<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Giving away Christmas gifts is a classic way to generate excitement at a company holiday party. Weekend getaways, Christmas hampers, gadgets, gift cards, and other prizes can all become part of the celebration, whether your employees are together in person or joining remotely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With an Entry Form Giveaway<\/a>, employees can access the promotion from their phones or computers, complete a registration form, and enter the random drawing. Share the promotion link by email or through your company’s internal communication channels before the event so everyone has an opportunity to participate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the virtual Christmas party, share your screen and run the random drawing live so everyone can follow the winner selection. You can also use the Show Mode<\/a> to present the winners with an animated countdown and visual and sound effects, turning the announcement into part of the entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you already have a list of participating employees, you can also use Easypromos to upload the participant list and run a random drawing directly using Pick a Winner<\/a>, without requiring employees to complete a registration form. This is a useful option when everyone attending the Christmas party should automatically be included in the prize drawing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let Employees Try Their Luck with Spin the Wheel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Spin the Wheel<\/a> is a simple way to distribute multiple Christmas gifts during a virtual holiday party. Share the promotion link by email, chat, or your company\u2019s internal communication channels and let employees spin from their own devices to find out instantly whether they have won a prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can customize the wheel with your Christmas campaign design, configure different prizes and probabilities, and use it to distribute gifts, gift cards, discounts, or other employee rewards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another option is to use the wheel as part of the live event itself. Add employees\u2019 names to the wheel, share your screen, announce the prize, and spin to reveal the winner in real time. This works particularly well for activities such as Christmas karaoke, team challenges, or prize announcements where the reveal becomes part of the entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n
