Outdoor Sportsman Group and the Archery Trade Association Announce Media Partnership

DENVER (November 4, 2020) – The Archery Trade Association (ATA) and Outdoor Sportsman Group (OSG) are pleased to announce the “ATA New Product Premiere,” a strategic media partnership that will generate an unprecedented level of multi-media coverage and promotion for the archery and bowhunting industry. The announcement was made today by Michael Carney, COO, Outdoor Sportsman Group.

“Manufacturers are looking for innovative ways to deliver new product information to enthusiasts due to the cancellation of physical trade shows, which is where media outlets have traditionally gained access to all the latest products and technologies,” Carney stated. “With that in mind, OSG and ATA are teaming up to produce the ‘ATA New Product Premiere,’ an hour-long, limited- interruption television special covering all the latest and greatest gear for the archery market in 2021.”

ATA members will have an exclusive first-access to view “ATA New Product Premiere” during ATA 2021 Online taking place the week of January 11-15, 2021.

The “ATA New Product Premiere” will then air on Outdoor Channel and Sportsman Channel on January 16, 2021. In addition to this first of its kind television special for the Archery industry, OSG will deliver unprecedented coverage across its family of websites, print magazines and social media outlets from brands consumers know and trust, like Bowhunter and Petersen’s Bowhunting.”

"While there’s no doubt we’re going to miss seeing our ATA members and industry friends in person,” ATA Senior Director of Trade Show and Membership Maria Lewis said, “we’re excited to be partnered with Outdoor Sportsman Group to bring the unique ‘ATA New Product Premiere’ to our retailer and dealer members and the largest consumer audience in the marketplace. We want to inform our retailers about new products, but also drive motivated customers into their stores. ”

A powerful and innovative industry partnership that combines the collective strengths of the ATA and OSG, the “ATA New Product Premiere,” offers participants a turnkey solution for featuring the latest news on their products and services in front of the marketplace’s top dealers and retailers as well as an unequaled consumer audience.
