Marketing Bingo Rules
Rules of the Game:
1) One by one, students in the class chooses a random number between 1-30 from
the Game Board.
2) Click on the hyperlink of the chosen number to be directed to a PowerPoint slide
depicting a promotional strategy.
3) Each student must decide which of the six categories of advertising strategies
that the chosen PowerPoint slide is describing.
•Advertising, Visual Merchandising, Public Relations, Publicity, Personal
Selling, Sales Promotion
4) After the student decides which category the PowerPoint slide falls under, the
student writes the title of the slide in one of the boxes under the appropriate
column with the goal of completing filling in the 15 squares of the playing card.
Note: Personal Selling & Visual Merchandising share a column on the game board.
5) Once a student calls out “Bingo,” they must call out the titles of the slides that
they used to fill in the playing card and accurately describe why they believe the
marketing strategy fits the category that they chose. Note: Many slides could fit
within multiple categories, so give the student the chance to defend their answer,
and make use your discretion whether they are correct or incorrect.
6) If any answer is incorrect, the game continues until someone calls out “Bingo”
and can correctly match 15 correct marketing strategies to their appropriate
heading.
