Sports Marketing and Mid-to-Bottom Funnel Work at Puroast Coffee

Puroast Coffee had done " mid to bottom of the funnel" work with sports marketing but not as broad as these campaigns.

"Hidden in Plain Sight"- We have spent significant time educating consumers on authenticity, fact-based research through many different paths but the "tipping point" has been Sinclair Inc. programming in key markets - especially NCAA College Football.

The advertising allows us to boldly proclaim Puroast Coffee's superior, verified low-acid/full-caffeine benefits of Puroast Coffee, directly contrasting with misleading claims in the category to a broader audience.

Why sports advertising is expensive and effective

Captive, Highly Engaged Audience During Live Events

Live sports programming delivers what few other media formats can: a captive, emotionally invested audience watching in real-time. Unlike scripted content that viewers increasingly DVR or stream on-demand, live sports demand immediate viewing. Fans watch games as they happen, creating a rare advertising environment where commercials are "seen and heard".

Three Key Benefits for Puroast Coffee

• Accessing New Demographics Beyond Traditional Coffee Advertising: Sports advertising through Sinclair Inc. has enabled Puroast Coffee to reach male consumers aged 25-54 who are underserved by traditional coffee marketing. This demographic expansion is not merely additive—it represents market segments with significant purchasing power and household influence that were previously difficult to reach.

• Building Long-Term Brand Valuation: Unlike one-off national campaigns that generate temporary awareness spikes, Sinclair's regional sports networks allow Puroast Coffee's to build sustained, deep brand presence in key geographic markets over multiple seasons. This consistency creates compounding brand equity—each season's advertising reinforces the previous season's message, building familiarity that evolves into preference and loyalty. Sports fans are creatures of habit who return season after season.

• Puroast's presence in their viewing experience year after year positions the brand as a permanent, trusted fixture rather than a fleeting promotional product. This long-term approach directly enhances enterprise valuation: investors and acquirers value brands with durable customer relationships, regional market dominance, and proven ability to sustain awareness without constant reinvestment.

• Puroast Coffee's multi-year partnership with Sinclair Inc. allows to communicate through their affiliates CBS, Fox Corporation, and The Walt Disney Company (ABC TV) has quantifiably increased brand valuation metrics including unaided brand awareness, and customer lifetime value.

Puroast Coffee's partnership with Sinclair Inc. represents a strategic investment in building sustainable competitive advantage through sports advertising. The combination of key demos, geographic precision, demographic alignment, second-screen engagement, and brand halo effects creates a powerful platform for driving both immediate clicks and long-term brand equity.

The three core benefits—demographic expansion, long-term valuation building, and overall awareness - position Puroast Coffee for continued growth and market leadership.

As the company scales, the foundation built through consistent sports presence will compound in value.
