Getting Ready For Expansion?

Getting Ready For Expansion?

One of my oldest clients (Andrew) has just been announced as the major sponsor for the new national Rugby League team (like American football) here in Australia.

He's a local business with just 2 outlets in this city. So why would he possibly sponsor a national team?

Good question. 2 possible answers:

1. He's not very smart!
2. He's really smart.

The correct answer is.......................................... # 2.

He's very smart. So there has to be a good reason.

Getting Ready For Expansion

And that reason would have to be expansion.

What's a very effective way to get state and national exposure to aid credibility just before you expand your business?

Yep. Become a major sponsor of a national sporting team in one of your country's biggest sports.

Instant profile. Instant credibility. Instant/effective branding.

Cheers

Brendon

P.S: And I'm not giving away any trade secrets here. We do Andrew's web site only. The expansion bit is just obvious and he mentions it himself: "Sales will benefit by a greater exposure, sense of community and provide possible plans for further expansion," Mills said.

Smartest thing about this is being first on board as a sponsor guarantees all round good will and sweet publicity like the story on last night's National Nine News on TV here in Brisbane as well as the fact that when sponsoring a brand new team the cost is comparatively cheaper than if he was sponsoring an established team for which he will essentially get the same level of exposure.
