Worth a look when you have three minutes: • Slide 4 — sideline cooler + jersey patch mockups • Slide 6 — packages and pricing Live deck: https://app.sponsorflo.ai/decks/f88d7c8d-da61-4b94-be80-230a40536b65 Open to 20 minutes next week to walk through inventory? Jeff Partnerships, Sevens Rugby 2) Follow-up after they opened it Subject: Re: Gatorade × Sevens deck Avery, Looks like you opened the Sevens deck twice this week — thanks for taking a look. Happy to jump on a quick call focused on the title vs presenting tiers, or I can send a revised package with the cooler activation only. Which is more useful? Jeff 3) Close the loop Subject: Close the loop on Sevens? Avery, I haven’t heard back on the Sevens hydration package, so I’m guessing timing is off for this season. If a smaller presenting tier is a better fit, I can send that. Otherwise I’ll close this out and check in before next year’s event calendar locks. Either way works — just reply with a quick preference.
