Begun in 1951, The Kickoff has earned this type of recognition
because of the way we do business. The entire staff starts to work on football
Saturday afternoon. Early Sunday morning the printers receive the proofs. The
second part of the team arrives early Sunday morning getting the sheets
processed for Monday morning delivery. This allows your customers to receive
the sheet early in the week to use as a reference for upcoming games as well
ones already played. The format each week features articles of current interest
as well as relevant statistics. And last but not least, each issue includes our
own power ratings and the coming weeks most important college matchups.
|
If you as a company have a target audience you would like to
contact, perhaps you need to consider becoming a corporate sponsor of The
Kickoff. Every week  for sixteen weeks your clients (or prospective
clients) will receive through first class mail a copy of The Kickoff containing
all major college schedules, NFL schedules, conference standings, the upcoming
weeks lineup, Top 25 and predictions for the coming games.
|
As an example of the newsletter, we have featured one of our
corporate sponsors,
Heard Chevrolet. The thumbnails on this page represent the
front, centerfold and back pages. Each copy of The Kickoff sponsored by you
will feature your individualized message: contacts, phone & fax numbers,
services and goods offered, etc. You will supply us with whatever information
you wish to place in your customers hand. We will set up your selected ad copy
on the top front, bottom front, inside top and bottom margins and back top and
bottom margins. A proof is provided upon request and our staff will work with
you to achieve the effect you desire. Many sponsors do provide camera-ready
artwork and advertising copy created by their ad agency. Whatever image you are
wanting to convey, we will work with you toward that goal.
|
You also will have the option of changing your mailing list as
the season progresses. Some of our clients even choose to send a new database
each week. We can receive via email in most formats to achieve an easy working
relationship.

If your business deals with people through daily contact, you
may choose to receive  your weekly copies in one parcel and distribute them
over the counter to increase foot traffic.
Heard Chevrolet is an example of the newsletter being used as a tool to
increase foot traffic and create goodwill. Or you could choose to mail a
portion of your copies to select customers and receive the remaining ones in a
bulk shipment to be distributed at your discretion. Additional shipping options
are available to help in areas of difficult delivery. Bulk amount of our
newsletters are delivered via DHL and will be in your hands by Tuesday
afternoon.
