THE OUTDOORSMAN with BUCK McNEELY

SELLING THE OUTDOORSMAN TV SHOW:

 

LOCAL MARKETING TIPS:

One of the key strategies in Marketing THE OUTDOORSMAN TV SHOW in your DMA is Positioning & Targeting the endemic retailers in your local market.

THE OUTDOORSMAN IS THE MEDIA SPEARHEAD of a National MASS MEDIA COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK established to service this HUGE $108 BILLION DOLLAR a year Outdoor lifestyle industry. This demo is one of the largest lifestyle demographics in the nation and in your market. EXPLOIT IT. SERVE IT.  BUILD A FRANCHISE & REVENUE STREAM AROUND IT.

ENDEMIC RETAILERS:
AUTO/TRUCK DEALERS         SPORTING GOODS STORES        MARINE DEALERS
ATV/MOTORCYLE DEALERS  BEER DISTRIBUTORS                  TIRE DEALERS
MARINAS/CHARTER BOATS   FISHING CLUBS                            HUNTING CLUBS
LAWN/GARDEN STORES         HARDWARE STORES                   FARM IMPLEMENT
AUTO PARTS STORES             INSURANCE                                  RV/TRAILER DEALERS

Target these retailers in your market. HIT their hot buttons. They need to market their message to the EXACT viewer/consumer that watches this TV show. Make them aware that they have a vested interest in supporting the media entities (You & I) that support their industry and their target CONSUMER demo. IT’S A NO BRAINER!!!

REMIND THEM THAT IF SALES IS THE LIFE BLOOD OF THEIR BUSINESS-THEN MARKETING IS THE HEART THAT PUMPS IT.  If they’re in biz for the long run they will COMPREHEND then buy into it now and into the future too.

We support this effort by providing custom promos, tags, ID’s etc: We even have a personal endorsement license package available. Once this marketing team is established it’s simple to maintain for renewals year after year.

This strategy delivers for you a quality alternative to the infomercial to generate revenue & establish relationships with new clients that will buy this series.
In the long run wouldn’t you rather have an established performer like this then just another infomercial?
