PROSTAFF APPLICATION
Thank you for your interest in RaptoRazor.
We welcome all outdoor enthusiasts to participate in the RaptoRazor Pro Staff Program. This is an “at will” service program performed by team members who want to help spread the word about the value of RaptoRazor products to hunters and anglers. Pro Staff members must be at least 18 years of age and have significant followings in at least two of the following social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, Youtube, Twitter).
The RaptoRazor Pro Staff Program involves three tiers of status based on contribution.
- RaptoRazor Pro Staff Ambassadors represent RaptoRazor by regularly sharing of their personal experience in the field with RaptoRazor products through social media, personal relationships and word of mouth. Pro Staff Ambassadors are eligible for an initial discount of 35% off on all RaptoRazor products purchased for their personal use.
- RaptoRazor Pro Staff Elite Team represent RaptoRazor in all the ways that Pro Staff Ambassadors do, but at a higher level. Pro Staff Elite Team members are enthusiastic RaptoRazor advocates who love to share the benefits of RaptoRazor’s unique products and they do it effectively with measurable results. Pro Staff Elite Team members promote RaptoRazor product frequently and effectively through their extensive social media communities. They can often be found helping at RaptoRazor tradeshows and events. RaptoRazor Pro Staff Elite Team members are eligible to get select RaptoRazor products at no charge from time to time and can also participate in higher level promotions and contests that involve attractive prizes like exclusive RaptoRazor hunts.
- RaptoRazor Pro Staff Advisory Team represent RaptoRazor in all the ways that Pro Staff Elite Team members do, but in addition, they provide RaptoRazor with feedback on new products under development and make other significant recommendations to improve our company. They make strategically key introductions to us which advance our business interests. They sometimes make investments in the company. They typically have access to large communities of hunters through popular TV shows or very large followings on social media, to which they promote RaptoRazor. Ultimately, they contribute to the success of RaptoRazor in highly significant and diverse ways. As our most exclusive Pro Staff level, Advisory Team members get RaptoRazor products at no charge, they get an inside look at what’s going on at RaptoRazor, they participate in awards and contests that are available only to our Advisory team and they get to participate in RaptoRazor events at the highest levels and generally operate as a RaptoRazor “insider”.
Virtually all Pro Staff members start as Ambassadors and those who show themselves worthy, through significant contribution, can advance to higher levels of Pro Staff recognition.
Requirements of RaptoRazor Pro Staff Ambassadors
- All RaptoRazor Pro Staff must take the time to understand the features and benefits of the knives and their proper use (we encourage all Pro Staff to watch the videos in our Resource Library and a video on How to Demo the Big Game Skinner/MANO Combo Pack.
- Video contributions: Shot in Landscape (horizontal) view and sent to info@raptorazor.com.
- One short video (perhaps upon receipt and unpacking of knives) that discusses the knives and why you think they are better (e.g. T-handle gives a good grip and allows for an easy pull through the hide for fast splitting of the hide. Guided skinning blade allows for faster skinning with fewer nicks, etc.).
- Videos of you using the knives in the field for field dressing. Again, here is where proper technique is important. If improper use is demonstrated, the video cannot be used.
-
Upon receipt of your knives, you will receive an automatic request from Yotpo to review the knives. Please write at least two honest and frank reviews for each product received; one on our website, and one on our Facebook page. We are always open to honest, constructive criticism so that we can improve. Be sure to contact us if you feel that any of our products are not performing as expected so that we can offer any advice on technique or take any corrective action that may be called for.
Please submit photos of you with your animals (before field dressing) so we can post them on our website. We would also really appreciate receiving any photos of you or your hunting buddies putting our knives to work. For the photo to be most useful for us it should be as “general audience friendly” as possible, otherwise our posts can be blocked by Facebook and other social media sites. We would appreciate photos as often as you can send them. It’s really great for us to be able to see our knives in action.
If accepted as a Pro Staff member, you will recieve a discount code that will be useful for a discount on your first purchase. Once you send us links to at least one product review (on our website or Facebook page), one or more examples of your sharing of Raptorazor content on your own social media pages and send us either one blog article with one or more photos or a video relating to your experience using our products, then we will renew your discount code.
