I work for a Commercial GMC & Chevrolet Truck Center and part of my job is to promote through the recreational fishing market (this works well for me). We will be a Sponsor at some events but be at most fishing.

So here is my problem (but I do have a budget):
I want to get something that I can give out at Surf Fishing, Kayak Fishing and Boat Fishing Tourneys and Gatherings that does a couple of things:
1) It either has to work or be funny
2) It has to be cost effective
3) I hope it would be different

???Just to throw the first bait in the water, what about a 5-inch swim bait with a Chevy Logo on one side and a GMC on the other.
??? Private label hard bait??

There is no wrong or bad idea, something will mutate and we can come up with something that does not get chucked in the can right away.

Thanks for you help in advance and I look forward to your replies and posts. I can be PM at brent-gmtrucks@earthlink.net (mailto:brent-gmtrucks@earthlink.net)

I could use a new truck.

Maybe a chevy with Ttoutman65 on the side would work for me. And you would have to put Team 57 on it too

Just kidding

You are on to something . you should get alot of imput here.

Good luck.

A plain white Chevy not in your budget?

Well, at the risk of placing a "spam" post............ I'd say you'd get the most bang for your buck by advertising right here on FNN.

That way you & your company could be seen everyday by every member that navigates to the site......

I'm sure that theres an advertising opportunity here that would fit in with your budget.....

Feel free to contact Jeff at webmaster@fishingnetwork.net (mailto:webmaster@fishingnetwork.net)

or myself at : fisherman57@fishingnetwork.net (mailto:fisherman57@fishingnetwork.net)



OK guys........... end of :spam:

57, I guess that means I will not get my new white Troutman65 chevy?

Oceanfishing, Brent,

Reel covers with your logo?
Golf towels with your logo would be great for a fisherman...
Mechanics work gloves?
Screen printed gunnny sacks?
Wind breaker jackets.?
Fish cleaning aprons?
Filet knives with your logo?
T-Shirts of course!
I bet I could catch a fish with a Chevy emblem turned into a lure.....
Protective seat cover for your truck to prevent getting it all fished up?

Need more?
