The ADWA will partner with companies and organizations within the industry to promote their products, services, membership benefits and overall growth of the industry through education and aggressive public relations. Serving as a ‘PR engine’ for its members, ADWA combines the benefits of marketing and education to inspire credibility among consumers and unity within the industry, and ADWA will broadcast public policy messages to more than 70 million households beginning in June.
“While most conservation or wildlife associations seek sponsors so the organizations can further their goals, ADWA was founded to promote the products and services of the sponsors and increase participation within the industry as a whole,” says Keith Warren, executive producer and host of Keith Warren’s Hunting & Outdoor Adventures which is seen on the Outdoor Channel. “Of course, all of us working within the wildlife industry still have our own specific goals, but it’s important to pull together to promote and grow the industry — and that’s what ADWA is about. I’m proud to be a member.”
ADWA Director of Operations Annie Jones explains that ADWA is a member-driven alliance and it exists to promote members and the industry as a whole more than any one agenda.
“By combining resources,” says Jones, “ADWA members more efficiently ensure the promotion and continued growth of the wildlife industry nationwide. ADWA offers wildlife-related organizations and companies unique advantages not found in any other single marketing vehicle.”
