Taking a rounded approach to sport



Have you ever wondered what is involved in rowing across the Atlantic? It is a huge logistical nightmare which doesn’t leave time for much else to think about. Since it is such hard work, it would be nice if there were some other benefits for those long days at the oars.

That’s where Sportscounsel came in. We recognised the commercial value of what they were doing and set about marketing the Team’s efforts in all media both prior to and during the event. Why? Simply to raise their profile amongst the New Zealand public. This was essential to ensure the sponsors saw the benefit for their investment but also so the rowers could see some value when they got back. By raising their profile we hope to facilitate more speaking engagements for the boys on their return and extend their shelf life beyond the duration of the event itself.

Here's what Steve Westlake had to say about Sportscounsel:

"When preparing for the Atlantic Rowing Race as with any major sporting event it is important to be very thorough in all aspects of the event and get expertise when you need it. We do that for training, nutrition, boat building and equipment. We also do it for the business side of sport. Michael's expertise has been fantastic. He is the sporting advice one stop shop."
