The spinning prize wheel was more than just a fun gimmick at JCK 2025—it was a powerful marketing tool. Jewelers of America (JA) used it to attract visitors, spark conversations, and highlight member benefits during one of the industry’s most important trade events. Held June 5–9 at The Venetian Expo in Las Vegas, JCK 2025 brought together jewelry professionals from around the globe. Despite the size of the show, JA’s booth stood out thanks to its interactive and engaging setup.
JA Booth: A Hub of Energy and Excitement
Located in the lower-level lobby, the JA booth offered more than brochures. It created a lively experience. Visitors stopped by to spin the prize wheel and win daily prizes like Starbucks and Amazon gift cards, a “Rest Easy Kit,” or even a $100 Visa gift card. Because of the movement and noise, the wheel caught the attention of passersby. As a result, people naturally paused—and stayed—to talk to the JA team.
Why the Prize Wheel Worked
This spin the wheel promotion was simple, but it worked. In an environment packed with digital displays, the wheel’s physical action stood out. It offered a tactile, satisfying moment that broke up the visual noise of the show floor. Moreover, while attendees waited their turn, they learned about JA’s benefits and met key partners like Aurora Payments and JewelersHealthCare.com.
Engaging the Crowd—and Keeping Them
Jewelers of America didn’t just stop at the prize wheel. To add more value, they teamed up with Synchrony to offer free mini chair massages on Sunday. Visitors could sign up in advance, giving them another reason to return to the booth. This multi-touch approach kept energy high and made the booth a go-to destination.
Turning Attention into ROI
By combining fun and information, JA turned quick visits into quality engagement. The spinning prize wheel created a line—and that line led to real conversations. Because attendees lingered, JA staff had more opportunities to build relationships and promote member services. It also sparked buzz on social media, extending the booth’s reach even further.
A Smart Move for Any Trade Show
As JCK continues to set the standard for jewelry trade events, JA’s strategy proves that simple tools still work. The spinning prize wheel turned heads, invited participation, and encouraged conversation. For exhibitors planning for next year, it’s a reminder: meaningful engagement doesn’t have to be high-tech. Sometimes, one good spin is all it takes.
