CentroDeportivo covered FIFA Women World Cup™ in France, 2019.
Goal: Launch a successful crowdfunding site to collect funds to publish a sports magazine special issue.
Context: The magazine CentroDeportivo covered the last successful USWNT participation in the FIFA Women's World Cup in France™, 2019. Thrilling games against powerful rivals and ultimately a dream final will be etched in the memories of all who follow the USWNT. Thousands of Americans witnessed history. CentroDeportivo™ covered the final, and other crucial matches.
CentroDeportivo followed Team USA to all the venues it played.
Why now? The last FIFA World Cup™ title the USWNT won was in 2019, Lyon, France. The next FIFA™ tournament was played in Australia/New Zealand and was won by Spain. Our plan was to publish a special issue late 2019 or early 2020... Then COVID hit and our plans got shelved indefinitelly. As the next FIFA Women World™ Cup will be played in Brazil next year, we think this is a good time to remember the thrilling moments from France 2019 and publish the content we got in 2019.
Who needs to apply: Experience launching successful crowdfunding sites is vital. We want to find a freelancer/company that can help us preparing a compelling narrative through images/videos (we have the needed content) for a crowdfunding site to be chosen (we'll create the account on the selected site using our financial info); we are open to use the crowdfunding suggested by the freelancer we choose, or could be more than one if possible/needed.
The final product: It will be a high quality LIMITED print issue that will be mailed and collected (treasured really) by US soccer-loving fans that follow the USWNT. We are looking to print between 5,000 to 10,000 copies. 20 to 24 full page, glossy, commercial free, high quality content only. 8.5" x 11.0". Stock to use TBD.
WE ARE NOT INTERESTED IN A CREATING A DIGITAL ISSUE.
We have plenty of original, proprietary graphic content from that tournament. CentroDeportivo was accredited media by FIFA™ that covered the tournament and followed Team USA to the venues where it played.
Alternative funding: If there's a single sponsor interested in paying for the project instead of crowdfunding, that is also a viable option. You can contact us with details. With the FIFA World Cup™ being played in the US this year, this could be a perfect option for corporations interested in gaining brand recognition through soccer.
