I’m sincerely grateful for the important role our retail partners played in the Pennsylvania Lottery’s successduring the 2016-2017 fiscal year. As our new fiscal year gets under way, I want to highlight how essential it isfor retailers to take full advantage of the resources and strategic advice we offer to help you grow your sales.
Building a stronger working relationship with our retailers was one of the goals of our recent “re-branding” ofour Sales and Retail Operations Division, headed by Eric Grubbs. I encourage you to read more about this im-portant effort in the “Meet the ‘New’ Sales Team” article in this edition.
Just as we work to keep our games fresh and exciting, we count on retailers to do their part by following ourtried-and-true best practices. A great example of how following these data-driven tips can grow sales is detailedin our profile of Giant Eagle 616 in Brentwood, found in this edition.
On behalf of the older Pennsylvanians who benefit from Lottery game sales, thanks for your continued part-nership and please let us know how we can help you succeed.
Best in Selling,Drew Svitko

Giant Eagle 616 in Brentwood, near Pittsburgh, has been the top-selling Lottery retailer in Pennsylvania forseveral years in a row. The store is co-owned by Bob Och, and his son Brian and son-in-law Dan Cheberenchick.
Bob has deep roots in the grocery industry, starting as a part-time Giant Eagle clerk more than 55 years ago.He worked his way up to purchase a store in 1989 and that store became a Lottery retailer in 1991. His keyguiding philosophy: quality customer service is job-one.
“We know our customers by name and go above and beyond to make them feel welcome,” Bob said. “And weextend that same approach to our Lottery customers.”
“Paying prizes is extremely important because the instantgratification experience oftenleads customers to make addi-tional purchases in our store,” Dansaid. “We also offer weekly sec-ond-chance drawings for non-winning tickets purchased in ourstore, usually awarding a $20store gift card – and that helps usto cross-promote with other products in the store.”
The store has set aside consider-able floor space for Lottery sales.There are numerous types ofvending in addition to countersales, where players can choosefrom 60 facings of Scratch-Offs.The store also underwent a LotterySalesmaker makeover.
“Changing the layout in our storeis the best thing we ever did! Wegave Lottery the space theyneeded to be successful in ourstore, with the tickets right on the counter for our customers to see,” Bob said. “Customers also like the winnerawareness area so they can see that we are a winning store.”
“Optimal placement of Lottery equipment is critical,” Dan added. “Through some trial and error, we identifiedthe best, high-traffic locations for vending equipment.”
The management team welcomes the best practices and other ideas suggested by their Lottery DSR, kathyFiedler.
“kathy is a real sales pro and knows how to engage our customers,” Dan noted. “Any time kathy wants to doa promotion, add equipment, or add facings on the counter, we embrace her suggestions because we knowthey will increase our Lottery sales. Retailers should listen to their DSR – doing so will make you money.”
“The Lottery has changed through major innovations over the years, and we’ve worked hard to grow our salesright alongside it,” Bob concluded.
Congratulations to the dedicated leadership team and staff at Giant Eagle 616 in Brentwood. The PennsylvaniaLottery is proud to be a partner in your continuing success.

Meet the “New” Sales TeamLottery Reps Have a Fresh Look, New Tools
Goodbye, District Lottery Representative – and hello, DistrictSales Representative. Assigning new job titles is only oneway in which the Pennsylvania Lottery is re-focusing its effortsto help retailers grow sales of Lottery games.
“We want retailers to rely on our representatives as the salesprofessionals that they are,” said Eric Grubbs, Deputy ExecutiveDirector for Sales & Retail Operations. “Our representatives aremore recognizable and have access to a wealth of data that canhelp to maximize a store’s performance.”
“Lottery DSRs are not just there to pick up tickets and put upposters; we are there to help a retailer grow their business,”said John Nalevanko, a former Lottery retailer who has workedas a sales representative out of the Lottery’s Area 5/Pittsburghoffice for six years.
“There are promotions that we can do and suggestions we canmake for optimization,” John added. “The retailer has to be will-ing to work with us and trust that we are there to help them.”
“I enjoy showing my retailers the success stories of locationsthat have implemented best practices and show them how saleshave increased,” said marshall mirarchi, a 29-year Lottery salesveteran based at the Area 3 office in middletown. keeping theLottery sales area fresh and clean is a key best practice.
“Having a clean, well-stocked lottery area grows sales by mak-ing the purchase process easier. I make it a point to change in-counter glass, replace worn point of sale material, update signsregularly, and help managers understand the importance ofmaking a good first impression,” marshall noted.
Retailers can make the most of their DSR’s time by preparingfor a visit, and DSRs can help retailers by keeping in touch be-tween store visits.
“I ask retailers to pay attention to all retailer messages on theWAVE terminal so they will have any return tickets organizedbefore I come in, which allows us more time to work on salesstrategies,” John said.
“Regularly sharing information on promotions, new games, andchanges is very important,” marshall added. “We rely on our re-
tailers to sell our product, so they should rely on us to listen to their needs, keep them informed and helpthem to succeed.”
Remember to work closely with your DSR and take their advice -- they’re ready to help you grow your Lottery business!

We’re keeping things fresh: new Fast Play games are now arriving on a monthly basis. New Fast Play games coming in August include 5X the Cash ($5) and Sunny Money ($1).
We have great news for players who enjoy progressive top prizes! Bothof the new Fast Play games coming in September will have top prizesthat grow until they’re won, then reset and start growing again. Thegames are 9s In A Line ($3) and Bling Bling Buck$ ($2). A $1 progres-sive top prize game, Comic Cash ($1), goes on sale in early October.
Selling Tip: Fast Play tickets must be printed at the time of purchase andhanded directly from the printer to the player. Always allow players to dis-cover if they have won -- do not give hints or spoil the element of surprise.
*Actual tickets may vary.
If your players have noticed there are fewer advance drawings avail-able for Match 6 lotto, that’s because of a change to the gamestarting with the August 29 drawing. Tickets for the updated match6 game will go on sale immediately after the August 28 drawing, atwhich point players will again be able to purchase up to 26 draws inadvance. Details of the game update will be announced soon atpalottery.com. The $2 ticket price will not change.
To help meet player demand for bigger jackpots more often, the mega millions® multi-state jackpot game isgetting a makeover in late October. The updated game will have a $2 ticket price and a revised matrix. Jackpotswill start at $40 million (up from $15 million) and various other prize payouts will increase. The chances ofwinning a $1 million prize will improve, as well. The changes are designed to help the multi-state game satisfyplayers who are increasingly drawn to larger jackpots. Watch for more details this fall.
