The NBS serves as a hub for tournaments to get their information out about upcoming tournaments and tournament results. Those results are tabulated into a power ranking on the NBS page which has become very competitive. The NBS Power Rankings is a list of the top 10 tournament anglers that compete in these tournaments.
The guys who fish these tournaments put a ton of time, effort, and money into competing in these events and I'd like to try and help them out in the upcoming year. I am calling on our local small businesses to step up to the plate and sponsor these anglers. My goal is to get 20 anglers sponsored by the end of 2016. It's going to take a coordinated effort to do this and some cooperation between the tournament fisherman and the sponsors but I feel we can make this happen. Take a look at the NBS page for this past year. How many times do you see these guys in pictures and in the rankings wearing Nike, Under Armour, or perhaps nothing on their shirts. These are wasted promotion opportunities that can be cashed in on by your small business or company. From what I see, this can be a win-win situation here. All that's needed is a simple bass fishing jersey or t-shirt with your company name or logo on it to get started. There are tons of online bass jersey sites that make it simple to create these shirts. Or it can be a simple as providing them with a company t-shirt. From there you can work with your tournament angler whether it be funding more tournaments or supplying lures. Whatever will help him win more and rise in the rankings. In return that angler will promote you business or company on the NBS page. In addition, all tournament anglers that are listed in the Top Ten Power Rankings will boast their sponsors name underneath their names, meaning your company will contain a clickable link from the NBS Page, straight to your website! But the promotion doesn't stop there! Northshore Fishing Report is also represented in the Slidell Independent and Tammany West Publications which boasts a 15,000 readership circulation in St. Tammany Parish. These publications will now incorporate the NBS standings into it’s, "Northshore Fishing Report" column which means more eyes on your brand! I also incorporate the NBS into my radio show which allows me to mention your business on live radio.
For $75 you get your company logo or name on the sponsorship sign that is featured on every post made to the NBS page during the 2016 Season!
You’ll also get your company logo or name permanently on the right side of the NBS page under, “NBS Sponsors” for the 2016 Season. This logo will be clickable and point traffic directly to your website.
If your sponsored angler reaches the top ten in the power rankings, your logo will be listed under his name and picture. This logo will also be clickable which allows viewers with a direct link to your business’ website. So please consider signing up to sponsor a local angler!
