TRANSCRIPT
Powerball in California
Commission Meeting February 2013
STRATEGIC APPROACH
Ø IN ORDER TO EXCITE NEW AND EXISTING PLAYERS: Ø WE HAD TO SEPARATE POWERBALL FROM OTHER CA LOTTERY GAMES,
GIVING THE GAME THE SENSE OF “BIGNESS” IT DESERVES
Ø WE ALSO HAD A CHALLENGE ON OUR HANDS: Ø MEGA MILLIONS, NOT POWERBALL, JUST HIT THE LARGEST JACKPOT IN
HISTORY
Ø SO WE KNEW IT COULDN’T JUST BE ABOUT THE $40MM STARTING JACKPOTS, IT HAD TO BE ABOUT THE EXCITEMENT THAT THOSE JACKPOTS CREATE
STRATEGIC APPROACH
So BIG it’s tough to even
comprehend how big this is
As Big As Big Can Get
Join in the Excitement
BELIEVE IN SOMETHING BIGGER
Powerball is as big as the lottery gets. It inspires people to think about things
on a whole new level. It creates a new feeling of hope and optimism for bigger
and better things. It motivates people to consider what they would do to make a
real and honest difference in the world. It can even make people consider how
one little change in their daily routine could lead to an incredible new life of
opportunity and generosity. In this way Powerball has the unique ability to make
all of us believe in something bigger.

#BELIEVE WEBSITE
We utilize Twitter to populate this site. All people have to do is tweet their California Dreams with #Believe. Then within seconds, their tweet will materialize in the form of a white ball and join the mass of other white balls falling like snow.
Imagine hearing the song “California Dreamin” as thousands of real Californians’ dreams fall beautifully in front of a slide show montage of California landscapes. Pretty powerful stu!.
At any time, visitors can explore the site and read other people’s dreams by merely hovering over the respective balls. They will see their Twitter handle and will have the option to retweet that person’s #Believe.
