The Bigfoot Networks' Guild Partners Program Launches!
While I normally don’t make a point of posting up actual work-related stuff – then again, I’ve not made much of a point to post up anything lately, sorry! – I am definitely making an exception for this one. I’m pretty happy to say that our new Guild Partners program, my little pet project, is officially launched!
Bigfoot Networks has been sponsoring professional eSports teams for quite a while now. If you aren’t familiar with eSports, they’re basically professional gaming teams that often make a living just by gaming in major tournaments as professional players (or athletes if you will). However, most gamers aren’t actually part of an eSports team – in fact, a very, very small amount are. So, I wanted to do something that would allow us to interact with more with gamers of a wider variety – ie: people who are in guilds and clans for a variety of online games.
The program basically has us advertising the teams that partner up with us on our site in a variety of ways, as well as getting them involved in some events as well. The idea is to help get the teams more well known, draw in new recruits, as well as to have a lot of fun. Of course, it does also help us get our name out better as well.
The program officially launched this past Friday, but I’ve already received a number of applications – and from some pretty large groups, too. I’m excited to see how this goes.
