Decide on where you want to put the carnival wheel

Both floor and table top models are widely available, but you'll want to decide where to put the lottery wheel before you buy it. A table top model will look out of place on the floor if you decide it's not going to work.

I recommend: Try a table top clicker prize wheel for smaller areas. Prize Wheel has a number of different sizes including a super wheel and a mini wheel.

Choose how many slots you'd like on the trade show wheel

Trade show wheels generally have either 12 or 18 slots. Depending on the number of prizes you want to offer and the look of the wheel, you may have a preference of one over the other.

I recommend: The Prize Wheel Store has a number of different sized prize wheels with varying numbers of slots. Casino4You also has a number of sized carnival wheels.

Consider what prizes you'll offer on the prize wheel

You can include a number of small prizes and discounts along with one larger one or any other combination that you want. For company picnics or events for employees, you can offer actual prizes. For customers, use discounts, cash off offers or products related to your business.

I recommend: With any of Flexi Display’s prize wheels, you can decide what prizes or discounts to use. Casino Supply has money wheels, numbered wheels and slots for inserts.

Print out the inserts for the prize slots

Many lottery wheels come with templates for slot inserts or you can customize your own. These interchangeable inserts make it easy to offer different rewards or discounts for special events.

I recommend: Create prize inserts with Ultimate Office’s lottery wheel with their enclosed software. You can also have a customized prize wheel made just for your event or company.
