Marketing Themes

The slogan – Get up, Keep Going, Push Further. This is a concept built on the powerful appeal of perseverance. We believe the most fascinating aspect of this exhibit is the sheer will-power it takes to not only attempt, but continue to improve in these activities. This is the reason why we marked the number of attempts within the marketing materials. This was to imply to the audience that it took several efforts before they were successful. By showing an athlete fail you immediately generate more initial interest from viewers. This is because most ads depicting athletes show them being successful. This contrasting approach allows this campaign to truly stand out.

Editorial Ideas

1) The Effects of Risk Taking on Children
What does every decision have in common? Risks. Taking risks can provide important learning skills through the process of trial and error.

Risks can reinforce confidence and proper decision-making tools, while also providing tools for self-reflection, improving on personal strengths, safety awareness, and social skills.

Risk is, of course, risky and understanding from an early age how to identify risk and its potential to harm you is one of the keys to success. Will Gadd describes in his Ted Talk the three tools he uses to help manage risk. They are; Hazard Recognition, Anticipating and Expecting Change, and Understanding your Level of Competence. Teaching kids these tools can benefit in all aspects of their lives. “Lean into the fear, work through it, and do something really cool!”

2) Push Further: What drives an athlete to push beyond human limits?

Most people will never know what it feels like to scale the side of a mountain or jump out of a plane. What makes extreme athletes so different and drives them to challenge themselves and pursue the unknown?

Dr. Kenneth Carter describes how a “sensation seeking” personality is a major factor in what drives people to push their limits. There is a big difference between a high sensation seeking individual and someone that might be reckless. Someone that might be reckless is going to be doing dangerous things for the sake of the risk and for the sake of the danger. High sensation seeking individuals are doing these experiences for the experience. They’re going after what’s interesting, and the risk is the thing they have to do to get that experience.

Promotional Ideas

Media Events, Member Appreciation Events, and Tourism Partnerships.
Media Events
1. Opening Day Buzz
Invite the media and influential members of the community to experience the exhibit prior to opening day. This will allow them to go out and create a buzz. The media event will allow the team to showcase the key features and theme of Beyond Human Limits to your local influencers.

2. Extreme Athlete Showcase
Utilize familiar extreme athletes to deliver a speech on what it takes to become an extreme athlete, how extreme sports came to be an important factor in their life, and their personal story. This helps create a direct linkage between an athlete and the specified extreme sport itself. Humanizing the athletes while celebrating their great achievements will generate excellent “word of mouth” marketing.

3. “The Amazing Race” (Summer / Spring)
Leveraging local companies that market to athletes (the more specific to extreme sports the better) will gain direct engagement for this exhibit. Schedule a toned down version of “The Amazing Race”. This “race” could involve having participants compete and go through toned down versions of the extreme sports that are showcased in Beyond Human Limits. On top of serving as an advertising opportunity for Beyond Human Limits, this “race” can also provide facts and information about BHL and the extreme sports featured, which ultimately can influence those not participating in the “games” themselves.

Member Appreciation Events
Below are member appreciation events that allows members and key influencers to experience the exhibit, learn what BHL has to offer, and increase involvement with VIP personnel within the community. The goal of this section is to increase involvement and promotion to your most valuable clientele.

1. Family Day
Experience the exhibit distraction free. Invite key members and their family members to the exhibit after hours to bring a “family” sense, as well as give the opportunity to give the hard working key members from Beyond Human Limits a chance to experience the exhibit, and what extreme sports has to offer.

2. Athlete Meet and Greet.
Organize a meet and greet between extreme athletes and important VIP / key members. This helps bring involvement directly to the Beyond Human Limits exhibit and creates a direct link to the exhibit, the extreme sport, and the athlete themselves.

3. Gala
Have a Member Gala that has attendees hear speeches, and relevant information on Beyond Human Limits, various extreme sports and athletes. This gala involves inviting key members and VIP clientele to a dinner that promotes the various exhibits, and mental and physical aspects of extreme sports. The gala can include extreme athlete speakers and influential members of the community.

◦ Faith Dickey
Slackliner and highliner

Through the outdoor sports world has been historically male-dominated, some women are avidly striving to inspire other women to pursue their dreams despite the imbalance in participants. Faith was the first female to level the playing field in the sport of highlining, and she quickly proved that being a woman is not a disadvantage. Within 6 months of highlining she had crushed the previous female world records in the sport of slackline and has since continued to break her own records to set new ones. She is the first women to reach the 100-meter length in highlining. She currently holds several world records for women in the sport of slackline, is the only female regularly free soloing, and continues to push her limits full time.

He grew up in a family that hiked, climbed, and went into the mountains whenever they could. Some of his earliest memories are of long backpacking trips, wind-blown summits, and surviving winter skip trips. The first sport he really got into was caving. When he was 14 he started kayaking. At 16 he bought his first climbing rope, and did his first new rock route. At 25 he first flew a paraglider. At 41 his daughter came into the world. She’s already doing all the stuff he did as a kid, and she’s an athlete too.

◦ Jeb Corliss
BASE jumper & wingsuit pilot

For as long as he can remember, Jeb Corliss has dreamed of flying. One of his earliest memories came when he was 6 and sitting in the back of his aunt’s car watching birds jump from telephone poles, opening their wings and soaring. “When I get older, I’m going to do that,” he said. His aunt explained that when he got older he would realize that humans can’t fly. “Maybe you can’t,” he replied, “but I’m going to.” Corliss’s stunts and his unyielding approach to life never fail to fascinate.

◦ Ashleigh Baird
Freediver

Her passion for being in and under the water came from early childhood adventures – exploring Florida’s beaches, islands, and fresh water springs with her family. Before she knew it, this passion quickly turned her into a freediving grom – holding her breath on long drives, experimenting with different mental techniques, and finding creative ways to get in and under the water whenever she could.

In 2011, after taking a series of freediving courses, she decided to take her passion a step further and she participated in her very first freediving competition. Since then she’s gone on to compete in many national and international events, including the 2014 and 2016 Team World Championships as a member of the US Women’s Freediving Team.
