Sales and Marketing Tips

Sports Facts and Opinions Make Dollars and Sense

by Vicki Whiting,
CEO Kid Scoop

My two boys loved reading the sports pages all during their growing up years, from early childhood through high school and college. They were enjoying it so much that they didn’t even realize that the sports pages were growing important reading, writing, and math skills. In sports, facts are truly facts. Opinions about teams require using facts to support your passionate defense of your special team.

My children’s delight in reading about sports at an early age inspired me to create Kid Scoop newspaper pages that use fun, really big fun activities to learn the difference between Fact and Opinion.

This natural interest children have in sports is a great way to bring in revenue to your newspaper from sponsorships of the weekly Kid Scoop page. Take a look and show these to your sports and education-minded retailers:

Remember, sporting goods stores are very popular with both children and parents in your town. Kid Scoop recommends connecting Kid Scoop to any organization that supports education, from banks to plumbing supply companies. Local accountants and law firms will find the math pages of Kid Scoop ideal for math education sponsorships. These professional businesses are potential sponsors who rarely advertise. With Kid Scoop, they will support learning math, reading, and writing skills with fun skill-building activities during and after the school day ends. Their sponsorships also provide online access to many free marketing tools for newspapers and extra teaching resources for educators. It all makes dollars and sense.
