FREE Media Kit Template for Aspiring Anglers |
Looking to take your angling career to the next level? NPAA wants to help you navigate the waters of sponsorship with precision. |
Forestville, WI (July 11, 2024) – Getting ahead in this fast-paced world means separating yourself from the pack – whether that’s finding a new job or advancing your position as an angling professional. And, when those two things collide, you’ve got to have your ducks in a row. There are literally thousands of anglers knocking at sponsors’ doors, so to help anglers stand out from the crowd, the NPAA has created the FREE NPAA Media Kit Template. Solid sponsorships are a necessity for aspiring professional anglers, with the reality of expenses like gas, food, and lodging—not to mention hefty entry fees for tournament anglers. So, unless you’re independently wealthy (which most of us aren’t), it’s best to seek out advice from a trusted source on how to present yourself professionally to build a network of sponsors that can help you achieve your professional dreams. Who knows what it takes to get sponsors? The NPAA does, an organization staffed by folks with decades of industry and professional angling experience who are there with the programs and services they know you need to be successful. That said, NPAA’s Pat Neu, EJ Saunders of Blaze Digital, and a group of successful pros sat down and listed out exactly what aspiring tournament and career anglers need to include in an effective media kit. |
What’s a media kit? Look at it like a resume or curriculum vitae (CV) you’d use to apply for a job in the competitive work world. A media kit lists professional and personal history and lets your potential sponsors understand who you are, what you want to achieve, and what you will do for their business. For starters, stop the me, me, me, attitude that’s pervasive in the current digital era. Your focus needs to be on how you can help potential sponsors increase their sales – not what they can do for you! |
What’s the best way to do that? Use the FREE NPAA Professional Angler Media Kit Template that was just released this week. Using it will save literally hours of research and will help you build a digital document that will help you stand out with tackle and marine manufacturers and even non-industry/non-endemic companies. The NPAA’s Pat Neu comments: “This template is designed to help you rise above the noise that exists in today’s world. First impressions are everything, and this media kit will give you the edge needed to make a lasting first impression.” Blaze Digital CEO, social media guru, and hardcore angler, EJ Saunders, adds: “We put a lot of work into creating the right template for helping aspiring tournament anglers and guides take the next steps to becoming a fulltime pro. It’s easy to use, streamlined, and you’ll end up with a turnkey document that will impress potential sponsors. It would be a mistake for anglers not to use it.” But the FREE NPAA MEDIA KIT isn’t just for aspiring pros, it’s for Guide/Captains, Angling Educators, and Content Creators and Reviewers. It’s the first step in a progression you need to take to be a successful pro. |
