300% Player growth in first 6 months after migration
All the hassle of day-to-day lottery player and draw management is taken in-hand by Woods Valldata’s charity lottery service, leaving St. John Ambulance with more capacity to focus on retention and acquisition.
Goal
St. John Ambulance’s external lottery manager was holding them back. They were therefore looking to migrate to a reliable and scalable charity lottery service to enable them to grow and innovate within the prize-led fundraising stream. Woods Valldata was the obvious partner of choice.
Success
- Seamless migration of 350 players without missing a draw.
- Investment followed increased confidence since moving resulting in uplift of 2,500 players in just 6 months.
Our Approach
Audit
We worked in partnership with St. John Ambulance to identify their unique needs for their weekly lottery based on their current player profiles, player numbers and ambitions.
RECOMMENDATIONS
We identified that migrating to our Aspire Lottery would perfectly fit their current requirements. Designed for smaller weekly lottery programmes, Aspire has an insured top prize, quick and easy set-up and scalable growth opportunities all within a tried and tested template.
The benefits of this are:
- Minimal resource requirement from St. John Ambulance for set-up, player management and draw management
- More time to focus efforts on strategic fundraising including player acquisition and upsell opportunities
- Tried and tested migration approach ensuring smooth transition
Implementation
The migration of around 350 existing St. John Ambulance lottery players was handled seamlessly by our migration team, allowing a change of lottery product and provider without missing a draw.
