Many ATA members renew their sponsorship annually and praise the ATA for offering premier opportunities. That includes Jonathan Clark, who oversees media, marketing and shooting staff for Last Chance Archery. He sponsors the Wi-Fi and educational seminars each year and receives a good return on investment for his purchases.
“We continue to purchase these sponsorships because of the visibility the sponsorships give us during the ATA Show each year,” he said. “These are two sponsorships we try to keep each year. The advertising benefits during the Show far outweigh the current cost of each sponsorship.”
Clark likes that every person who uses the internet sees the Wi-Fi splash page, which displays the Last Chance Archery logo and links to its new products, therefore keeping the brand in the forefront of dealers’ minds. Sponsoring the seminars puts the Last Chance Archery logo and name on signage all over the Show floor. It also gives Last Chance Archery the opportunity to put catalogs in the seminar rooms and present a seminar to highlight its products.
The ATA offers sponsorships for every budget. They’re all unique and beneficial. Select from sponsorships in the following categories: signage, digital, display, souvenir, and events or popular spaces. Custom sponsorships are also available. Visit the ATA’s sponsorship website to view all the options and find one that works well for your brand.
