As a Uniroyal tire dealer, Speck Sales has partnered with Uniroyal and Eastwood Youth Soccer for the past six years to participate in the Uniroyal Soccer Ball Give Away Program.
The program is designed to benefit the soccer program by donating funds to the soccer program while promoting tire sales.
Uniroyal sent free soccer ball gift certificates to the coaches of each soccer program who handed out these certificates to the parents of the children on their teams. The parents and children are then able to stop at Speck Sales and redeem them for a free soccer ball.
The parents were also able to take advantage of other prizes and promotions that are attached to the soccer ball certificates for oil changes, tire rebates or a sweepstakes entry.
The parents were able enter the Uniroyal sweepstakes by following an internet link listed on their certificate where they could enter free drawings to win some major prizes in a Uniroyal gives away.
In addition, Uniroyal was able to send e-mails to the parents letting them know about future promotions and sales.
Yet another benefit of this program is the fact that the youth soccer leagues receive a monetary donation at the conclusion of the promotion.
During the program promotion, all of the Uniroyal tires that Speck Sales sold are totaled and submitted back to Uniroyal. Uniroyal donates one dollar for every tire sold during this promotion. At the same time, Speck Sales matches Uniroyal’s donation and then presents the teams with a check to use at their disposal.
In the end, the kids receive a new free ball, the parents receive some coupons, and the teams receive a donation of funds.
