Marketing team Christmas and New Year – what’s next?
Friday, December 26, 2008 - UB Marketing
The marketing office had christmas lunch together on Wednesday. Secret Santa gifts of all kinds -no UB gear- and gift bags for everyone including Strawberry White Zinfandel (??), apples, grapes, and small treats. The coolest secret santa gift I saw: a remote control helicopter. The most uncomfortable: a black thong that was two sizes too small for one of the guys in the communications team.
Half the team will be out through the holidays, the other half will pick up the slack and eat leftovers at the office. Oh, and we’re having an XBOX World Cup tournament in the game room with whoever is around next week. I’m a shoe-in to loose.
What are we looking at before 2009 fully embraces us all? My favorite is the 100-seat guaranteed tournament this Saturday. Easy way to qualify directly to the UBOC Championship event and the guaranteed 1 MILLION DOLLAR prize pool. That’s about the same size as the entire Christmas lottery prize in Costa Rica.
Second favorite… $150K Guaranteed tourney next Thursday, on January 1st. Perfect for post-party relaxing at home. I’ll be working so you won’t get to knock me out, but if everyone celebrates the new year in full force, this may be an easier one to cash in if you’re not hungover.
My next post will be in 2009. Hard to believe. We’ll kick off the marketing year with our UBOC countdown, internal meetings to boost the player experience through RAI$E, and some finishing touches for our WSOP strategy. Ugh, it’s not even 2009 and we’re already talking about Phil’s 12th, the grand entrance, and the whole UB community feel at the World Series. Will it be medieval, tactical, sports-oriented, undercover, by sea, by air? So many options, love it. Any suggestions for the WSOP in 2009?
Happy New Year and good luck at the tables. See you in 2009.
