<<Can anyone give me ONE good reason why the Lifetime Learning deal will be any better than the dismal failure that the much hyped at the time Babe Ruth deal has turned out to be? After all, it's basically the same kind of deal. Kids selling cards.>>
Baldy, I'm going to give the benefit of the doubt and assume this is a sincere question. TSIG signed the Babe Ruth deal a short period of time before the BR fundraising began. TSIG really did not have enough time to do what it needed to do in preparation. Babe Ruth is a very de-centralized organization which is to say fundraising decisions are made on the local level. Babe Ruth was unable to provide TSIG with a list of the local coaches/league presidents. TSIG's only point of contact was the web site. I suspect that TSIG was hampered by lack of funds. What would be different about the 2000 campaign is a) sufficient lead time; b) TSIG has a list of local people to contact; c) TSIG should have the funds to do what is necessary to support the deal; d) hopefully TSIG will have a successful track record with LL to help sell the concept; e) TSIG will have learned some things from their association with LL and from the 1999 experience with BR. Regards, Suzanne
