In exchange, not only will you receive exclusive special pricing on our product, but you will also enjoy some unique and very compelling benefits that are designed to drive exposure back to you! We are dedicated to developing highly-creative marketing strategies that will promote both our products as well as our Endorsers - Bottomline, we have designed the program to drive traffic back to you!

benefits

Approved Endorsers will receive the following benefits:

  • 25% OFF original retail price on first-time purchase of the V-CART. If applying as a band, each artist in the band will be eligible to receive the special Endorser pricing – Limit 1 (one) V-CART per artist.
  • Inclusion in the “Artists that GRUV” section of the company website, which will display your photo, bio, sample MP3 or video, and website link. Artists may be categorized based on genre as more Endorsers are added.
  • When we feature your music or video on our homepage, it will be automatically played without any action from the user – This means immediate user engagement and instant exposure to you. Rotation will vary depending on availability of content submitted by other Endorsers.
  • Free exposure generated from GRUV GEAR’s marketing campaigns in both national publications and industry websites.
  • Advanced notification and additional Endorser discounts on new GRUV GEAR products.
