Active Water Sports

Event Marketing

IMG-0272

Description: As the Content Creator for Active Water Sports, part of my duty was to promote a few events throughout the year. On July 21, Active Water Sports hosted the inaugural event Hangtime. Hangtime is the Pacific Northwest’s only current double-up wakeboard contest, and the first of its kind in over a decade. With this being the first Hangtime event, my main target reach was Active Water Sports’ current customers. For the event, I wrote copy for the website, which was also shared on Alliance Wake, KATU and other news sources. I also connected with local media and shared a press release to help spread the word. I contributed to sharing content on social media and sent weekly email reminders to over 14,000 customers. During the event itself, I live-streamed and consistently posted updates to Hangtime and Active Water Sports’ social sites so that fans that were unable to attend were still able to enjoy the excitement.

Goal: The goal was to gain multiple sponsors to fund Hangtime, have the event shared on multiple news sources to reach the largest audience and achieve a beach full of attendees.

Result: The Hangtime sponsors – Yacht Harbor Club, Rockstar, Nautique, Alliance Wake, Ronix, Liquid Force, Slingshot, Elysian Brewing, River Pig Saloon – contributed a plentiful fund for the event that created a fun, successful atmosphere for attendees. The event was shared by Alliance Wake and all of our sponsors through social media. In addition, local news station KGW welcomed professional riders Kevin Henshaw and Brenton Priestley on the newscast to promote Hangtime. Also, another local station, KATU, featured a video on its website and evening broadcast. Finally, the beach front was filled with attendees beach towel to beach towel.
