I didn't realize this was a zero-sum game.

Senior employees at IHG have, for whatever reason, decided to make this promotion available to a wide swath of people. One of the employees who has made her link public is a senior marketing employee--Social Marketing Manager. Another is Steve Sickel, VP, Loyalty Marketing. http://ihgfriendsandfamily.com/stevesickel

It is my understanding that the semi-public version of this F&F offer is temporary and is a means to increase prepaid bookings for up to a one year timeframe.
