2010 Anglers Insight Marketing (AIM) Tournament Series
gengberg January 31st, 2010
January 29, 2010Dear NPAA Angler:
There is still ice on the northern lakes, but the 2010 AIM tournament season is already in process. Dates and locations have been set. Registrations are flowing in. AIM is planning to build on the successes of 2009 and introduce many improvements to the format, coverage, and payouts in 2010! 
But we need your help. . .
First, register NOW for the 2010 tournaments. Entry fees are NOT charged until 30-days before the event, deposits will be charged after April 1st. This early registration is very helpful in maintaining the list of Co-anglers for each event (and the waiting list, if necessary.)
Note: Non-Owners of AIM will receive a 50% DISCOUNT on Membership fees for entry in four events before March 31st. That is, the $250 per tournament Non-Member fee (previously $1,000 for four events) is reduced to $500 IF your entries are filed before March 31st.
Second, help AIM increase the reach of our marketing. Send the AIM office (kathyaim@excel.net ) a list of the Internet fishing sites and forums that you regularly visit. We will add these sites to our broadcast list for press releases and announcements. Likewise, include on this list any fishing clubs or local tournament groups to which you belong. We will contact these groups with information about the AIM “Sanctioned Series” program and with Co-angler entry information.
Third, help AIM increase YOUR marketing effectiveness! Do you have a website? AIM will add a link to this on our Facebook page (AIM Pro Walleye Series - become a fan!) Send a list of the sport shows, seminars, and other appearances you have scheduled this spring. We will also publicize these dates. AIM can provide a few Power Point slides for your presentation (CRRTM, format, Co-angler info) as well as a pdf that you can use as a handout. Feel free to contact us if you would like us to forward you those slides or you would like a PDF copy of the handout. Posted any fishing videos to YouTube? Send AIM the link so we can drive more traffic your way. Any other news and/or press releases we can help you distribute? Put AIM to work for you!
You - the angler - are the reason for the existence of Anglers Insight Marketing! Tournaments are our platform, but marketing is our business. Let’s work together and rise to the top!
Sincerely,
Randy Reek
