Team Sponsorships
Team Sponsorship will allow your company to receive total identification with the team, driver, and car. In the minds of the loyal fans, we become the same. As a marketing partner, your company name and logo will have prime placement on the car and driver’s uniform.
Marketing Efforts of Redline
As with any marketing strategy, placing your company name or product logo on a race car is only the beginning. The awareness must be encompassed with traditional and speedsports-based marketing activities to make the program work. Following, are some of the current strategies and activities being implemented.
Exposure: The basis of all race car related marketing is logo placement for effective visual exposure. The size and location of a company is determined by the amount of sponsorship paid to a team. Primary sponsors are usually located on the hood and both rear quarter panels (above the rear tires) of the race car. Associate sponsors are then place on the car according to contribution, above and below the primary sponsor. Drivers and crew chiefs are always instructed to mention sponsors in media interviews.
Drivers and their crew members wear the sponsor’s product logos or company name on their uniforms, with the size and location again contingent on the degree of sponsorship. Additional exposure is gained from logo placement on transporters (rolling billboards), pit banners, and equipment covers.
