Dear Ultimate Player,

I am helping Dave Brown re-launch World Ultimate Magazine 
(some of you may have seen the first two issues which were 
awesome)!  Dave has set up a program to allow Ultimate 
players an opportunity to raise funds by helping to secure 
advertisers for the magazine.  There are some details below.  
I hope that some of you will be able to take advantage of 
this program.

ATTENTION: Ultimate players interested in raising funds for 
yourself, your team or your project

World Ultimate magazine, after partnering with Parallel, a 
successful advertising agency, and SOTG Events, run by John 
Harris of Toronto, is in the midst of securing advertisers 
(hi-tech recruiting companies and others) as it works towards 
its spring re-launch of this quarterly magazine. As part of 
this effort, and in conjunction with the growing need for 
Ultimate sponsorship funds, it has launched the "World 
Ultimate Sponsor Advertising Program" - (W.U.S.A.P.)

The program is simple: World Ultimate will give the usual 
agency and ad rep fees, equaling 25% commission, to anyone 
who can bring in advertisers at our published rates.  That 
is, if you (Ultimate player, coach or team) bring World 
Ultimate magazine an advertiser (ex: a $3,414 full page ad), 
WUM will issue you a cheque for 25% commission ($853.50).  
This program gives players an opportunity to raise money for 
tourney expenses, league fees, uniforms, discs for clinics or 
whatever..... and basically turns each Ultimate player who 
gets involved into an Ad Rep for the magazine and the sport.

EXAMPLE: Potential advertisers/sponsors include:

* Hi-tech companies wishing to advertise their career 
opportunities to a demographic that has more than 50% working 
in the hi-tech sector and a substantial university market of 
students studying as engineers, programmers etc.
* Companies wishing to promote their services, company or 
products to outdoor and sports-minded professionals who not 
only play Ultimate but have a keen interest in anything to do 
with the outdoors, traveling, and so on.

For further information check out our web page: 
http://www.worldultimate.com. If you have a lead you'd like 
to pursue, please contact John ASAP. We believe this is an 
innovative and strong approach to fundraising, and we look 
forward to hearing from anyone who can secure a 
sponsor/advertiser as we ready for Ultimate and our Spring 
issue.

Please forward this to any Ultimate-related team email lists 
you may have in order to facilitate a trickle-down effect of 
getting the word out on this new and exciting program.

Thanks in advance!

Dave :)
