The Commonality

Why pair Jimmer Fredette and Kaskade?

Jimmer and Kaskade are the perfect tandem to combine the worlds of sports and music, in order to market a particular product

Jimmer and Kaskade were both baptized into the Mormon Church

Both attended BYU to follow their dreams and be surrounded by other Mormons

Jimmer and Kaskade were both seen as underdogs growing up

Relentless work ethics have allowed them to overcome the odds and succeed in industries where they are seen as the minority

Jimmer and Kaskade share the importance of family• Jimmer is extremely close to his brother TJ, who is an aspiring musician• Kaskade is married with three small children, who he credits as his inspiration

Between ‘Jimmermania’ and the Electronic Dance Music takeover, both Jimmer Fredette and Kaskade have become major household names

A New Marketing Trend

Sports and music are deemed harmonious, going hand-in-hand in all avenues of life

Musicians have teamed up with athletes/associated themselves with athletics, in order to

promote companies and their products

Currently, Electronic Dance Music DJs are being utilized in campaigns for the first time:

Red Bull: Usage of athletes such as Blake Griffin and DJs such as Chuckie, with EDM background music, in a new national TV campaign promoting “The World of Red Bull’ The World of Red Bull

Under Armour: Usage of Cam Newton and DJ AraabMuzik, with EDM background music, in a new national TV campaign promoting new UA apparel Cam's Night Out

Budweiser: Advertisement debuting during the 2012 NFL Super Bowl, featuring DJ Avicii, with EDM background music, to promote Bud Light Platinum beer Bud Light Platinum- Work

BlackBerry: Usage of DJ Diplo, with EDM background music, to promote the BlackBerry Torch 9800 in a national TV campaign Diplo- Love What You Do

Potential Products: Spalding Basketball Sneakers

Why a Spalding campaign would work:

Before the 2011-2012 NBA season, Jimmer Fredette signed a shoe deal with the athletic equipment company Spalding

Jimmer would be one of three NBA players to help debut the company’s first line of basketball sneakers

The next step in this partnership is to have Jimmer gain exposure for the sneaker and himself by staring in a campaign

For Spalding, it is all about being first, innovative, and the best at what they do, traits that describe both Jimmer in his basketball career, as well as Kaskade within the music industry

Kaskade would be an integral part of the campaign with his innovative and award winning music as the background for the advertisements, and as an opportunity for Spalding to use the DJ to start and promote a causal footwear line as well

Spalding Campaign Outline

What the campaign would consist of:

Television advertisements staring the two personalities using, wearing, and promoting the sneakers

Kaskade background music options include:1. Fire in Your New Shoes 2. Raining3. Move For Me4. Turn It Down

Print media advertisements from the campaign located in various magazines and catalogs

questions

Potential Products: FRS Healthy Performance

What is FRS Healthy Performance?

FRS was developed by health scientists trying to provide sustained energy for chemotherapy patients

FRS drinks are powered by Quercetin, a potent all natural antioxidant, green tea catechins, and essential vitamins (naturally occurring caffeine comes from the green tea extract, no extra caffeine is added)

FRS energy drinks work by naturally triggering your cells’ ability to produce sustained energy, allowing you to focus on increasing your stamina to maximize performance

FRS Healthy Energy, Healthy Protein, Healthy Defense, & Healthy Slim

Headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area

FRS Sport Ambassadors include Lance Armstrong, Tim Tebow, Jordan Romero, and Christie Rampone

Tim Tebow: Healthy Energy Tim Tebow: They Said

Potential Products: FRS Healthy Performance

Why an FRS endorsement and marketing campaign would work:

Elite athletes and musicians alike need to stay energized and hydrated in order to perform their best on the court as well as in the DJ booth

For individuals like Jimmer and Kaskade, FRS is the perfect healthy drink that would provide them the sustained energy needed to stay focused on being the best that they can be, while abiding by their religious beliefs

• For Jimmer, FRS is a great substitute to drinks such as Red Bull and Gatorade, which will provide him the antioxidants needed to stay fresh and energized in the fourth quarter of an NBA game

• FRS is a great substitute to alcoholic beverages and other carbonated , unhealthy energy drinks for Kaskade, helping him stay focused and energized for his famous 12-hour DJ sets

FRS has support from elite athletes such as Lance Armstrong and Tim Tebow, but has yet to tap into the basketball or music markets

Endorser Time Tebow shares the same type of outspoken dedication to his religious beliefs, as well as the underdog mentality that Jimmer and Kaskade have
