ALLSTATE "GOOD HANDS" net

[greenjoe]

I met George Carranza at the Breakfast Kiwanis Turkey Roll Bicycle Rally.  He had a booth there and I asked him why there wasn't an Allstate "Good Hands" net at Apogee Stadium.  He seemed as surprised at the suggestion and admitted he didn't know.  He said he thought it was a good idea and i followed up with him.  He told me that Allstate would be moved to do something by some sort of sign of support by North Texas fans.  "Like what ?", I asked.  Like fans asking, was the reply.

 

So here I am, asking.  I'd like North Texas fans to take ONE MINUTE and write something to Allstate Insurance asking for a "Good Hands' net in the north end zone of Apogee Stadium  Send your requests to Allstate c/o George Carranza, 2430 South Interstate 35E, Suite 212, Denton, 76205, or gcarranza@allstate.com.  Here's a sample of what to say:

 

Dear Allstate and Mr. Carranza, I'm a fan of North Texas  Mean Green Football.  I'd like to see an Allstate "Good Hands" net in the north end zone of Apogee Stadium.  This would be good exposure for Allstate and a fun addition to North Texas Football.  Go Mean Green.   YOUR NAME HERE.

 

Easy.  Get your family together over the holidays and each of your write to Allstate and let's get a "Good Hand's net up before the start of football season.  See you Thursday at Frisco.

GO MEAN GREEN

Done.

Directing to their marketing folks may be a better tactic that sending to a small business owner/agent.  This is coming from a fellow agent.

Does the AD get advertising revenue in return?

I'm not sure if it is a factor, but I would think Texas Farm Bureau Insurance as a pretty long term sponsor may have something to do with not having Allstate as an option for being a sponsor or having the Good Hands net.

We should be the first with a Texas Farm Bureau net.

As in “ You’re in good hands with Texas Farm Bureau ? “

The nets are at 94 different schools. I had earlier thought that Allstate only sponsored P5 schools but that does not seem to be the case.  Does anyone know if SMU has the net?

Looks like no.

Surely you guys get the purpose for the net.  Allstate’s trademark is,” You’re in Good Hands with Allstate.”  That’s why there are a PAIR of hands on the net.  IT’s AN ALLSTATE NET !

Keyboard cowards annoy me.

If Texas Farmer Bureau Ins is a sponsor at UNT then put this pic on the net-
