Sponsor Promotional Efforts and Philosophies:
With our business backgrounds we understand the relationship of promotions to sales and representing our sponsors professionally and honestly.
To that end, we develop our promotional program as follows:
- Product knowledge, understanding product benefits and advantages,
understanding competition
- We carry and distribute sponsor brochures and sample products at
weigh-ins, seminars, retail outlets, sport shows, etc.
- We develop a relationship with a corporate contact person for
sales referrals, problem solving, and promotional needs and desires.
- We personally visit related retail outlets at each tournament
site we visit to develop sales referrals, introduce new products and to thank them on behalf of our sponsors for their support of their products.
- We are allowed time to speak at all Crappie USA Seminars and
weigh-ins to promote mutual sponsors and ask that our peers consider our sponsor products the next time they are in the market to purchase a particular products.
- We acknowledge and thank our sponsors during weigh-ins
regardless of our finish.
- We work with local and national media in an effort to promote
crappie fishing, sponsors and Crappie USA.
We are always open to ideas and suggestions that can make us a better asset for you.
