Glenwood, AL – Pursuit Media, LLC and Careco TV, LLC renews multi-year deal.
Pursuit Media, LLC, Careco TV, LLC and Careco Multimedia are pleased to announce a multi-year extension of their programming and marketing services agreement.
For over 12 years, Pursuit Channel has been a home base for dozens of Careco-produced and recruited original episodic series that support the hunting, fishing, and tournament trail categories. For the past two years, Careco has also assisted the network in various marketing, promotional and creative services areas.
“We’re so proud to have a company like Careco at our side as a like-minded and genuine partner” says Rusty Faulk, Founder and CEO of Pursuit Media. “The mixed bag of content they bring to the network provides a tremendous amount of diversity to our programming lineup. Careco also brings the messages of many of the industry’s largest and most respected brands to the Pursuit audience. We couldn’t be happier with this affiliation as we look ahead to many more years of success together” he continues.
Careco’s President, Wade Middleton, knows all too well what Pursuit has meant to their business. “We’ve been alongside Pursuit on many fronts for many years…primarily having Pursuit as a key distribution platform for our programming” he said. “Over the years we’ve seen Pursuit evolve and grow like few other networks in regard to both response and distribution opportunities. Every time you look up, there’s another distribution platform onboarding Pursuit or Pursuit UP, and as a company that has always believed in maximizing reach and impressions, we feel there’s no better place to reach the outdoors enthusiasts with our content. The growth they have achieved, and the flexibility provided for our content is so vital to our business, and any producer in the space that desires to maximize reach and impressions for their content should be airing on Pursuit and Pursuit UP, and we can help with that as well.”
