Sports Afield News

We are very pleased to share that SATP has been selected by the Land Report as one of America’s Best Brokerages for the 14th straight year.  Not only is Sports Afield listed as one of America’s Best Brokerages, but our participating brokerage from Montana, Idaho, Washington, and Wyoming—Clearwater Properties—has made the list as well!  This is the most sought after designation for all brokerages across the nation – and is based on upon market sales volume, market presence, and relevance to the real estate industry.

We are very proud to announce that Sports Afield has again made License Global Magazine’s list of top 150 brands for 2017.  This is the second year in a row that Sports Afield made the list a list that includes some of the most recognizable brands in the world.  Sports Afield came in at #112 for our licensing program that includes Trophy Properties, gun safes, home decor, backpacks, clothing, log homes, a Russian language edition, the World of Sports Afield television show, and other outdoor related products.

 

If you are visiting Western Montana, and get the feeling you may have just found home, look no further than the Missoula Airport for your Montana property experts.  Clearwater Properties of Montana has an office right in the Missoula Airport, where you can see current listings and speak with one of their top-notch Montana agents.

We are thrilled to the the Sports Afield Trophy Property network well-represented to visitors and locals alike.

After you have spent a minute browsing Clearwater’s wall of Trophy Property listings, leave yourself enough time to stop at the newsstand, where Sports Afield magazine is available.

 

We are very pleased to announce that our Canadian brokers, Real Estate Centre of Canada, have added a new territory.  Heleen Jacobson and the team will now be representing Sports Afield Trophy Properties in Southeast British Columbia.

For those interested in current Trophy Property listings in Eastern Canada, the Real Estate Centre has several current listings in Alberta.  Among them is this 136 acre ranch with Oldman River frontage. Imagine access to world-class fly fishing, just steps from your front door. View complete “Del Rio” listing here.

We recently returned home from the Annual Sports Afield Trophy Properties Conference, March 23 & 24.

One time each year, we invite all of our participating brokers to get together to share stories and successes from the previous year, and discuss our plans and strategy for the year ahead.  Because we generally meet in March, we tend to choose a conference location with a warm climate, to help some of our more Northern brokers thaw out a little bit.  This year we convened in Tucson, Arizona for 2 days of planning, learning, and networking.

We were joined by guest speaker, and veteran Digital Marketing expert, Ron Cates.  Ron was a compelling speaker and entertainer, with loads of beneficial advice and lessons on how we can best utilize our digital marketing tools to enhance our businesses.

A huge thank you to all of our brokers who attended the conference.  We truly believe it was our best one yet, and much of that is a reflection on the talented team and network that makes up Sports Afield Trophy Properties.

 

 

Included inside every Sports Afield Safe purchase is a flier for Sports Afield Trophy Properties.  Part of the ongoing efforts to increase synergy across the entire scope of the Sports Afield brand.

Sports Afield is one of those magazines that are as familiar as roasted turkey on Thanksgiving and as heartwarming as that big slice of apple pie for dessert. Sports Afield was on your father’s coffee table. It was in your grandfather’s magazine rack. It was stacked in hunting cabins across America, and read and re-read dozens of times. In its pages is the history of American sportsmanship and outdoor adventure since 1887.

Sports Afield safes are sold via multiple mass retailers such as Costco, Dunham’s, Tractor Supply and Menard’s, as well as hundreds of independent retailers. For 2017 it is expected that 15,000 safes will be sold in the USA alone. This is not counting the Lightning Vaults for handguns which will add thousands more. Another synergy program to help draw customers to the Sports Afield Trophy Property program.

Sports Afield. The voice of outdoor enthusiasts for over 130 years.
