12Grass Roots Campaigns
- American Sports Marketing will create grass roots
campaigns for sports related companies that are
supported by cutting edge technology.
- The initial program for golf is The Short Game
Challenge. This unique event was developed by
an ASM partner for Odyssey Golf in the 1990s.
- We are in discussions with Ford Motor Company and
J. Walter Thompson for a 2006 rollout. The event
will be conducted at over 1000 golf courses
across the USA with over 500,000 participants in
the event database. - The event format allows for surveys, co-branding
partners, and product samplings to the event
participants and to the host site golf courses.
The event thrives on the synergy of participants,
golf courses, car dealerships, co-sponsors,
media, and the event database. - This event will benefit all Resort Club
International, Inc. partners. This will be the
largest golf event ever held, with the winner
facing Phil Mickelson in the finals.
13Global Partners
- American Sports Marketing with over 50 years
experience in the golf industry will use its
golf/sports industry network for all projects. - We see a definitive fit to consult for small to
mid-size golf product and service companies.
Here is an area where ASM will develop sales and
marketing strategies which will directly benefit
those companies. - ASM has channels of distribution in place,
including sales professionals, retailers, and web
partners which will be beneficial for sales,
licensing, and marketing of products and
services. - This network can be deployed both immediately and
effectively for the ASM client. - ASM will seek fees and possible equity positions
from clients based on performance and sales. - ASM looks forward to the assisting all Resort
Club International, Inc. partners with their

Web-Based Memberships/Subscription Programs
- ASM sees the opportunity in developing and
assisting companies with web-based subscription
and membership revenue.
- Subscription revenue is commonly overlooked by
most traditional golf industry companies.
- ASM believes that when you combine the aspects of
a companys product and service with cutting edge
technology you can create some type of
subscription revenue for the company. - ASM also believes this is the best type of
revenue a company can have because of the
consistency of the revenue, low acquisition cost
factor, and also the growth potential of the
subscription base. - Some of the fastest growing and most profitable
web models are subscription based.
15Investment
Market Share Growth

develop and nurture its network of partners
within the sports industry (primarily golf). - These partners will maximize the value that ASM
can bring to the table for any client. - ASM also looks forward to growth through
acquiring new clients and developing ASM specific
programs that will benefit any ASM partner or
client. - ASM looks forward to consulting with clients on
projects that include marketing, sales
presentations, brand awareness, and business
development. - ASM can adapt its sales and support network to
its current projects on what largely will be a
commissioned-based structure. Taking this
position will allow ASM to grow in a productive
and cost efficient manner. - ASM also looks to leverage its experience and
network within the Golf Industry to position
itself an agent for mergers and acquisitions
within the industry
16Investment
Target Market
- The ASM target market will consist of any company
and their customer with a core product and
service with the focus on golf or any other
sports activity - We recognize this market as global with the first
emphasis on the USA, and that we-based technology
tools will allow us a broader reach, greater
impact, and quicker corporate growth
17Investment
Competitive Landscape
- American Sports Marketing recognizes there are
some sales and marketing companies working within
the Golf and Sports Industries. - Innovative grass roots marketing campaigns
combined with cutting edge technology are rare
and hard to find. - We have also found a niche and believe that ASM
can deliver customer tracking and acquisition
programs to clients within the Golf Industry.
This is non-existent today for 95 of all golf
product companies. - Most companies simply dont track their
customers. We also believe the Short Game
Challenge campaign is unique to the industry - When ASM combines the synergy of its global
network, Resort Club International, Inc.
partners, technology-based (non-traditional)
approach, and vast experience, this will lead to
success and ASM will be recognized as a leader by
its peers. - ASM also recognizes that corporate downsizing
will attribute to growth and demand for ASM
services and products.
