Sales Kickoff Bingo
Energise your sales team at kickoff events with a bingo card built for competitive spirit.
Sales kickoffs thrive on energy, competition and connection between reps from different regions or teams. This bingo card channels that competitive spirit into networking, encouraging attendees to meet colleagues, share wins and swap tactics across the event.
How to run this activity
Hand out cards at registration or the opening keynote. Encourage reps to mingle during breaks, meals and social sessions, ticking off squares as they meet the matching person. Announce prizes tied to sales culture, such as a feature in the next team newsletter or a shout-out on stage. Collect completed cards at the closing session for a prize draw.

Competitive incentives tend to land well, such as a coveted parking spot, a feature in leadership communications, or a small cash-equivalent voucher. Keep the tone consistent with your usual sales incentive culture.
It's best to keep squares focused on connection and shared experience rather than performance comparisons, which can feel uncomfortable for some reps. Save performance recognition for dedicated award moments.
