| Why should your company support the DMA? | What's in it for your company? | |
| In this ever-growing world of commerciality and with the increase in sales of motorcycles, along with scooters, and more cars taking to the road, the DMA recognizes that unfortunately, more accidents may occur. The latest figures from the Department of Transport show that in the northwest alone, there were 2,363 people injured while riding a two-wheeled motor vehicle in 2001. This is why the DMA provides The Accident Support Scheme and its Information Base, to help and support those who need it after being involved in an accident or who may need pointing in the right direction. | There is of course the "feel good factor", but the DMA fully understands that a successful business can not run on the "feel good factor" alone, it needs returns. The DMA can offer your company access to his members. It can also give your company the opportunity to promote its products and services to a different market. The two main fields that the DMA operate in are, the motorcycle fraternity and the disability arena.After all, we are all consumers. | |
| Where are the customers? | Who's supporting the DMA already? | |
| The DMA attends the relevant events and shows related to disabilities and motorcycles. For example, the Manchester Bike Show is one of the largest in the UK and has an average of 28,000 people in attendance and the Rossendale Valley Show has around 25,000 people who attend the show. In fact, it's so successful the whole town is closed for 2 days to accommodate the visitors. The Warrington Disability Show has over 20,000 people who visit the show year on year. Where else could your company have access to such an opportunity to show the products and services to so many potential customers in such a captive space? The DMA also reaches out to those who use to ride and still have an interest in motorcycling, along with those who may have a disability and who are trying biking for the first time. We must not forget the "Born Again" motorcyclists, those whose families have left home to start their own families and left the parents with income to spare. The potential market place is huge, this offers a great opportunity. | Co-operative Bank, Awards for All section of the National Lottery, Ultraseal, Granby Motors, M & P Direct and Lloyds TSB Foundation are just a few that have provided assistance to the DMA not only on a financial footing, but also in kind. In addition, there are other companies including Choicequote Insurance, Proshift Gear Change and a number of smaller companies who have suppoted the DMA along with Manchester City Council.The companies on the left also support the work we do. | |
How you can help |
||
The DMA appreciates that not all companies support charities and those who do, do not always give support by way of a cash donation. However, it also understands that many businesses do make donations and there are those who support charities in kind and by taking advertising space in or on promotional material. The DMA offers all of these options to suit the needs of the company. Magazine advertising The DMA's quarterly magazine Kick Start, produced in full colour is one of the best magazines within the voluntary sector and is possibly one of only a few magazines of its type in the whole of the UK. This provides a standard but popular opportunity to advertise your company in what one of the DMA's members described as "a damn good read". The rates of advertising are realistic and at the same time reflects the quality. The circulation of the magazine is estimated at approximate 2,500 which includes it being sent to all individual and business members, hospital staff, social services, motorcycle outlets, the voluntary sector and plays a major part in the display material when the DMA attends various shows and events. The DMA envisage that as the organisation grows so will the output of the magazine increase.
