BAXTER, Minn. -(Ammoland.com)- Babe Winkelman Productions announces new partnership with South Carolina-based digital marketing agency, The Modern Connection.
The relationship aligns with the vision of Babe Winkelman Productions to build on an established, successful television and production brand, and elevate its presence into the world of digital media.
“The loyalty of our fans is unparalleled, and it’s essential to me to stay connected with those fans on a personal level,” said Babe Winkelman. “Working with The Modern Connection will foster a new kind of accessibility between the entire Winkelman family and the people across the country who have made Good Fishing and Outdoor Secrets successful television programs for more than 30 years.”
The partnership with The Modern Connection includes a full suite of digital marketing services, including the launch of a new website, and strategic social media management.
The new website will encompass a library of Good Fishing and Outdoor Secrets episodes, as well as a comprehensive database of recipes from Kris’ Kitchen, an online store, and an interactive map showcasing the locations where Babe has fished or hunted.
“We see so much potential for the entire Babe Winkelman family to be more connected with fans through digital and social media,” said Ashley T. Caldwell, owner of The Modern Connection. “What has made Babe’s success so special is his ability to connect in a very personal way with his viewers. Our mission in partnering with Babe and his team is to foster the personal interactions with Babe, his family, and their fans that are happening online.”
“I want to build excitement for the sports of hunting and fishing with younger generations of fans,” said Winkelman. “By bringing my passion for the great outdoors directly to the fans on the sites and devices where they’re already spending their time, we’ll be able to bridge relationships between kids and their parents and grandparents who have been lifelong viewers of our shows.”
The new Babe Winkelman website will see a launch date of early December.
