Konica Minolta South Africa - Key into Colour 2008

August 7, 2008

Bidvest company, Konica Minolta South Africa’s Blake Grace has become the proud owner of a Mercedes Benz 200 Kompressor Avant Garde, valued at more than R330 000.

The company’s "Key into Colour 2008- incentive ran from January to June this year, with all active sales consultants from Konica Minolta South Africa and authorised distributors taking part. Points were earned through new machine sales, based on region and business potential, with a certain number of points earning competitors a certain number of keys.

This year’s competition produced a record number of qualifiers - 156 people with a total of 447 keys. The top qualifier accumulated enough points to earn 25 keys, with three other sales consultants earning between 15 and 20 keys each. But, the game has proved again to be all luck!

At the gala luncheon in Johannesburg on Friday 25 July 2008, each qualifier received the keys earned, of which only three could unlock the chest with the real Mercedes keys. The three lucky finalists each got the chance to try and start the car, but only one could drive away in it. Gillian Schneiderman from the Johannesburg Sales office and Faizal Karim from Newcastle Sales got close, but could do nothing more than to congratulate Johannesburg-based Blake as the winner.
