MDM Added a reply to Stewart Family Compound | Snap-on Great Garages
7/20/2017 7:33am That was it. Thanks. His parents did whatever they could to help him get to this level. James was there. He knows what mom and dad did. I'd give them the world too.

7/20/2017 7:30am Thank you. Skimmed it, and very well could be. Going to watch this in the evening when I have some free time. Thanks for posting this.

7/20/2017 6:49am Stewart's def didn't come from money. I would love to dig up an old video I saw back in the day that talked about his dad scraping up money just to pay for entry fees. It was really good. Anyway, I hope James was smart with his earnings. If he was, that money can "work" for him and provide for...

7/20/2017 6:43am I wasn't replying directly at anyone in particular...more so the comments that are sure to come. Also, they probably shot several hours of footage that was edited down to that clip. Big James might have thanked his son 3,582 times, but that was all removed. I'd bet he is very thankful for his son, as James is for his dad...

7/20/2017 5:42am As soon as I watched the video I knew some people would jump on the, "Big James is spending his kids money like water" train. Big James played a major role in his kids success. I know if I was James, I would WANT to give my dad the world. Personally, my dad is completely responsible for my success, and...

3/24/2017 12:15pm Look at this post from Axell's IG: https://www.instagram.com/p/BPV2Or1BJXm/?taken-by=axellhodges 26.2K likes 97 comments Now, look at this one from Kenny before the injury: https://www.instagram.com/p/BNZkU9nAZlg/?taken-by=kenroczen94&hl=en 47.4k likes 194 comments Before his injury, Kenny was the hottest topic. Axell has more that 50% of Kenny's numbers. Both posts are similar in the exposure they are giving sponsors. Bike and gear pretty visible all...

3/24/2017 11:19am And Axell's engagement rate CRUSHES everyone. It's all about that social media engagement.

3/24/2017 11:07am Nailed it. Monster is in the business to make money. A lot of it. Core MX fans would love the $$$ to roll into a B/C level team or a couple privateers, but a kid like Axell or Tyler are going to sell more cans of Monster. Think of where the racing side of the sport would be (both am...

3/24/2017 5:20am I never understood the hate on someone like him. It appears he loves bikes (isn't that why we all got hooked on this sport in the first place?) and I hate to say it, but I bet he is making more money riding the social media wave than a lot of the guys making mains week in and week out...

3/6/2017 2:37pm Great, thank you!
MDM Started a new thread Fasthouse Sizing
3/6/2017 2:06pm Anyone running Fasthouse gear? Curious as to how it runs size-wise -- pretty standard or on the small or large size? Absolutely love their gear but since I'll be ordering online just wanted to see if anyone had some input on its fit before I order.

3/6/2017 1:12pm Welcome. Trust me, in a professional proposal all of that comes into consideration. There are unique followers, probability overlap percentages, etc. A lot more than just a follower count.

3/6/2017 12:16pm I would donate time because I can. This is something I do now. I help many SMB owners with marketing for free. Little mom and pop shops that don't have huge budgets. Why? Because it is my way of giving back. My agencies don't even offer the services I help with, so nothing to gain. When I lost my dad...

3/6/2017 12:11pm Actually, you are 100% correct. In a real proposal, data breakdown, there is a thing called "overlap" which is addressed, covering the points you mentioned. I simply used that as an example and didn't have time to dive into it further.

3/6/2017 11:58am No, but it turned into a "the sport will never grow" thread. But the way you handle sponsor engagement etc impacts growth.

3/6/2017 11:56am Lol not selling anything. This thread has gotten so off track. Anyway, feel free to discuss if you want...if not let this die.

3/6/2017 11:29am Actually...the OP is about doing better for current sponsors and attracting new ones. This thread has gone in a different direction a bit...so mentioning that by doing this it helps the growth. Really not sure why the original post is hard to understand...it's pretty clear.
MDM Added a reply to Pro Teams Dropping the Ball (Drives me crazy...)
3/6/2017 11:18am Easiest way to do both: provide existing fans an experience they can't stop talking about and it attracts new fans and the sport experiences exponential growth.

3/6/2017 11:06am You could flip the script and say, "Most NASCAR fans are dumb uneducated rednecks that couldn't afford (insert product name) or too stupid to understand what (insert sponsor product) is." Sure, there are the "bros" at SX races, but there are also a lot of middle class, educated, self employed successful people. Just like there is a wide demo at...
