Social Media & Marketing Examples
We want to make it easy for your social media coordinators to execute your requirements, so we're taking this opportunity to provide you with content examples and guidance. Of course, your voice is the one your fans want to hear, so please feel free to be yourself and be creative!
Shout Outs

A tagged positive post about VC as the team's sponsor, or a mention of a current product, that includes the link to the team's merchandise collection and "@vcultimate".

Newsletter Shout Outs
We stand by this: Your team needs an e-newsletter. Email marketing is the best way to keep engaged with your fans, ticket holders, PSP sponsors... and the best way to promote your merchandise stores. If you don't have a mailing list yet, this should be your next marketing initiative.
While our request is to have a VC logo/product image – linked back to your team collection on the VC site – within your e-newsletter, there's more that you can do and it will be effective, we promise.
