Find a little HOPE and support FFP

Greetings!

Update:
Round One (April) Winner goes to Madison Multisport! Thank you for the support! Our May campaign has started - 20 orders by JUNE!

---

As the event industry shifts during this difficult time, I am actively looking for ways Focal Flame can continue to support its community and team. We are sorry we’re unable to serve you at races right now. We wish, just as much as you, we were celebrating everyones accomplishments at the finish line. The conditions are not ideal, but Focal Flame is doing our best to be positive and provide HOPE to our community.

For us to continue and serve YOU, there is an easy way for you to support us. You can buy prints and/or products from any past Focal Flame supported event! Of course the high res digital is free, and that will never change, but what better way to provide HOPE than a physical print or product?  Display it in your home to motivate you, bring inspiration, a sense of “we’ve got this” into your life! This has ALWAYS been our mission. To provide hope and support to our community, our clients, and our team.

If you need more incentive (yes, it is fun AND competitive) we are giving away a free photo session the person OR local team / company that has the most print orders starting today until May 1st. We know you’re competitive, so stretch those muscles to win this super sweet prize. 

HOW TO PARTICIPATE: 

1. Head to www.focalflamestore.com and locate photos with YOU, friends, or family

2. Click “BUY” in the top right corner and select your desired products.

3. *IMPORTANT* Email clint@focalflame your order number and team name!

4. Once you have your print, mug, magnets - snap where you display them and tag #FFPrint!

OUR GOAL, well… our finish line is 20 orders before June 1. 

Thank you for helping us reach it, please send this out to your team, friends, or family AND by ordering prints. This allows us to bring your past moments back into your life, remind us all there is HOPE, and provides financial support for our team to come back and capture future moments for you again.

We are here to help with the process or questions and thank you!

Clint

Thank you for your support during the COVID19 pandemic

As the reality of the COVID19 pandemic sets in for our community, we wanted to take a moment to openly say THANK YOU to all who have reached out to us to offer your support. The entire DNA of this company is to push hard, serve our clients, innovate, and create (and then to push a little harder). Truth is, when we have to stop, it runs counter to our DNA and makes for VERY difficult days for our crew - but we are committed to the health of those we serve. Your safety is foremost in our mind. Our commitment to our partners, clients and community is steadfast. So is our commitment to #striving. 

Like other small businesses in the area we are adjusting to the new, surreal state of affairs while helping our staff weather the storm. Here are a few ways you can help us help our staff during the COVID19 situation:

1.) Consider buying a print or other fun merchandise from a past event. Proceeds from tangible items like a print, a coffee mug, magnets, or countless other items - that helps us help our staff. And at this moment in time, having something in hand to remind you of your favorite run, bike ride or triathlon gives much-needed hope and meaning as a memory of better days. Head over to www.focalflamestore.com and if you need help finding an image - let us know.

2.) If your family or business needs portraits, or commercial photography / videography after the Stay At Home order lifts, we will provide a 15% discount on projects that are booked now. You can also donate a project for your favorite nonprofit at a 15% discount - we would LOVE to tell their story! Contact clint@focalflame.com with your ideas and we can provide options.

3.) Need some one-on-one online training in photography, how to operate your camera, photo editing, photo file management, or iPhone photo or video apps? We can provide virtual training by the hour with any of our skilled staff at 15% discount on that service as well. Email clint@focalflame.com and we will set up personalized training. 

4.) We have YEARS of live-streaming experience and can help your business get events online with a professional look - and without hassle or concerns about technical problems. We also have expertise in applications like WebEx and Zoom and - coupled with our videography experience - we can make your staff look and sound great, or help with technology issues for those critical BIG meetings and events. Contact clint@focalflame.com with details and we will come up with solutions.

5.) Support our partners as best as you can. Continue to support the endurance event industry by supporting Race Day Events, Madison Marathon, Girls On The Run, Trek100, Scenic Shore 150, The Ride, Door County Triathlon, and countless others that are persevering through difficult times. Our commercial clients like Destination Madison also have great tips on how to support the local community. Helping our clients is always our first priority!

Last… please take care of yourself and your loved ones. Please take steps to be healthy and strong. Get outside safely, stretch, eat well, and take care of those who need help. We love you, Madison. We miss you.  Keep #striving. We can’t wait to get back out there and see you in action. 

Thank you,

Clint, Mer, Josh, Alicia, and the entire Focal Flame team
