Has USACI ever thought about having a referral contest? Have a contest with a good prize for referrals to join USACI in 2009.
I believe that if everybody made an effort to get new guys into the sport this year it could make a huge difference. Not even just new guys but try to bring some of the guys who have not competed lately back to the game.
Who is in charge of USACI marketing anyways? I would like to help in any way I can to bring more competitors and spectators to the shows.
If more people show up it will gain more exposure and attention. That will bring more coverage to it from media outlets and bring more sponsors.
Making it better for the shops who hold the shows, more competition for the guys, and more leads for sponsors, and more $ for USACI.
It would be real cool to start a movement to get new people interested in 12v shows again.
