I heard a rumor, as a long time member, I can sponsor a new BMW rider for a year?

How do I do that?

 

[adamchandler]

What kind of sponsorship were you interested in? I’m not a new BMW Rider but I’d love a new motorcycle.

But seriously, like supporting rider training (foundation) or buying them an MOA membership?

Probably referring to our Member Forces program where you can recruit a new member and gift their first year of membership. If you do the recruiting, we will cover the first year fees. The first year can be positioned as a gift from you to the new member.

A similar page can be created for anyone or you can simply submit the information directly on the form at https://airtable.com/shrPT7yA9hWiUM9XV

The activation code is a combination of your last name and member number. The offer is only valid for new members.

Just imagine…

… that on this page there was a brief 30-second video you could watch that told you how cool and exciting it is to be a part of the MOA.

You could be at a gas pump, see another beemer rider, ask if they’re an MOA member, and if not, just click on your Member Forces page, have them watch the video, have them scan your QR code on their phone and bam… a new non-paying member.

Then, over the next year, send them more than a magazine… like compelling pitches to become a paid member.



Of course, I have issues with giving away something of such great value, sort of reduces the perception of value in the eyes of the prospect.

Please... Don't bother other rider's at the gas pump, especially me. But I get your point.

Voni and I have chats with riders at gas stops all the time. Many are fun.

Same with us. It's easy to tell if the rider is in a hurry or or has time to visit.

And we wonder why beemer riders have a reputation as snobs!
