It’s not enough to be a great athlete; you must take the opportunity to promote your brand. Shows are a great way to do that. Even if you pitch and they don’t use you, you will be part of their database. That is what makes every pitch a home run. Unless you are clearly NOT a fit, you are in the database and have a chance that you will get a call. And when media calls, you show up.
Below is a real show looking for BMX-ers. You can pitch if you are a good fit, if you are not a good fit, you risk getting banned from their mailbox forever!
Go for it!
