Randy Walker: Marketing The Mardy Fish Foundation
from Beyond The Baselines Hosted by Ed Shanaphy
We were happy to catch up with Randy Walker at The Boulevard Tennis Club in Vero Beach, FL. Randy, owner and President of New Chapter Media, is not only a tennis publisher, but also an avid player, marketer and tournament director. Randy directs the annual tournament for the Mardy Fish Children's Foundation. Part of the USTA Pro Circuit, this tournament serves as the biggest fundraising opportunity for Mardy's foundation. Randy discusses with us how he markets and communicates to the many demographics along the Treasure Coast of Florida for the biggest fundraiser for Mardy's foundation. Marketing Secrets From One Of The Best! Randy realizes that each player has a story and that's the first tantalizing or teasing piece of the marketing strategy for his tournament. He has a sound marketing strategy and he shares it with us: "Make your tournament like a mini US Open!" Randy just released the book Juan Martin del Potro: The Gentle Giant this year at the Delray Beach ATP event, and he continues to serve as Communications Director for the Invesco Series. It's one of our favorite tournament series in which we have the opportunity to watch some of the best ever: Jim Courier, Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, and John McEnroe.
