PROMOTING THE MARINERS

Hahhahaahahaaaa! Thats hilarious! So much so I'm leaving it there.
What may at a glance look like something about pooing mariners, is in fact....

PROMOTING THE MARINERS

The yellow fonts a little on the hard to read side ;D

Pretty sure we'd all love to see Blue tongue packed to the rafters. There are some good heads on here and so I thought why not think tank a few ideas for promoting our games? I realise this is done by CCM etc etc... but worth a play still I thought...

What I know to be covered
(please add to the list if you know of something else that is regular or significant)

*CCM already seem to cover radio well - ads and appearances.
*They also seem to do fairly regular team appearances at various commnunity      events and or locations.
*They get plenty of print in the local rags - though some content that isn't just a repetition of everything that any half serious fan already knows would be nice for a change!
* Also the odd members and fan days/ chrissy picnic etc

This is good...

But... if your like me and talk to a lot of people, you'd get the feeling that for a relatively small community, most people are still not very aware of even when our next game is coming up. For members this obviously isn't an issue. But as we are still a long way from filling our ground with members I thought someone may have a little gem of an idea somewhere that who knows may even end up being picked up or helping out...

For mine, I think the CCM should have a nicely wrapped car like the Radio promo ones that drive around everywhere, (with a gorgeous girl or two in it of course) giving away some tattoos, stickers beer holders etc - and a few tickets, and constantly plugging the team and their next match. Their radio partners should broadcast their locations as they drive around to the local grounds on weekends, shopping centres and car parks etc... I've heard the radio cars giving away tickets and plugging the game, but this is not like having your own Mariner Mobile which would be way cooler.

I also liked the latest promo box and signs of the Rhinos at Erina Fair - and think something of a similar vein would be well worth it.

Little help here?

A blue Subaru WRX with some Yellow Vinyls and Deacls with a Mariners logo would look "Fully Sick"

[Jerem]

dunno bout hutcho on the side
but that was the idea
keep em coming
p.s. wat program was that done on?

 

[krusty]

Last year they had a ad on the screen at half time I thought it was great i would love to see it on t.v. at the end of the ad put when our next game is.  I get sydney channels and see ads about them it would be great to see some about us. It will cost alot but we dont have a marquee player so sure we have some money spare.

How many people commute to Syd on a daily basis during the week?? Surely putting some sort of LARGE permanent signage/billoard type thing of next home matches etc at the Kariong, Ourimbah, Tuggerah, Sparks Rd etc etc exits would be the go. Gets heaps of people to notice and I'm sure council would be happy to take some sort annual fees to have these erected on Govt land.

Only one prob I forsee there.... Scum and the likes supporters possibly defacing it at some stage

Thoughts???

These billboards are very, very expensive but worth it IMO.

Alicia's dad had a great idea way back in season one. He proposed that a huge billboard be put up our side of the hawkesbury bridge going northbond. It would have the Mariners logo and read "Welcome to Mariners Country". It would give people a huge emotional response and link to the Mariners every time they are coming back from work or visiting Sydney - the same sort of emotional positivity you get everytime you see Ploddy.

Speaking of Ploddy, how about a Mariners kit for Ploddy? Probably wouldn't be that effective for advertising purposes, but I would like to see that
