Your brand.
Your brand.
Inside the community, facility by facility.
This is not a keyword buy. Your brand gets embedded in real pickleball facilities: in the newsletter, on the shelf, in staff conversations, and in front of players who buy what their head pro recommends. Build your facility mix, set up Summit, and the numbers build from there.
PlatinumIAPPF
Official Platinum Sponsor
Peak is the Official Platinum Sponsor of the IAPPF, the International Association of Pickleball and Padel Facilities.
The global trade association for pickleball and padel facilities, with 500+ member facilities worldwide. Meet us at the IAPPF 2026 International Conference and Expo in Orlando, November 17 to 19.
1
Build your facility mix
Choose a cohort of 5, 10, 20, or 30+ facilities. Every cohort is a mix of facility sizes, so you get guaranteed reach without picking facilities one by one.
2
Staff get trained on your brand
Through Summit, staff complete a brand certification. They learn your product, your story, and how to talk about it.
3
A 90 day activation in every facility
Choose from three pieces: an initial minimum order, three newsletter features in Brands We Love by Peak Pickleball Agency with a social post alongside each, and three brand and promo days. Staff certification comes with every activation, so certified staff are always behind your product.
4
Wholesale keeps going
After the 90 days, every facility keeps ordering your product through Summit. That is where the program compounds.

1
Choose what each facility runs
Applies to every facility in your mix. The full activation is priced as a package. Pieces on their own carry a 15% premium.
Always included: 1 staff certification in Summit · 90 days fully tracked in Summit · Ongoing wholesale ordering through Summit
2
Choose your cohort
Every cohort is a mix of Triple Crown, Gold, Silver, and Bronze facilities. Prices reflect the pieces you chose above.
The mix in your cohort
Your cohort is a mix of these tiers. The exact mix can vary by market and facility availability, but the reach on your cohort card stays constant. If a facility changes, we replace it with one that keeps you at that reach or above.
How tiers are set. Every facility is placed in a tier based on two things: the size of its email list and its weekly foot traffic. Tier figures shown are typical for each tier. Activation is billed 50% at signing and 50% when each facility places its initial minimum order, or completes its first deliverable if no order is included.
Demo products. The brand provides each facility enough product samples, in the quantity the brand deems appropriate, to run its three brand and promo days. The specific products and quantities are set together during onboarding.
Step 2 of 6
Summit.
Summit.
The platform your whole program runs on.
The activation lasts 90 days. Summit is what keeps your brand selling after that. It puts your products in front of every facility in the network, trains the staff who recommend them, and tracks every order, certification, and click back to the facility that drove it.
One place for every facility to find you, learn you, order you, and reorder you.

What Summit does for your brand
Everything a facility needs to carry, recommend, and reorder your product.
🛒
Ongoing wholesale ordering
Your products live in the Summit catalog with wholesale and MSRP pricing. Facilities order and reorder any time from one cart and one invoice. This is the channel that keeps paying long after the activation ends.
🎓
Staff certification
Your brand course lives in Summit. Head pros, teaching pros, and front desk staff complete it, and certified pros get your product to use in lessons and clinics. That is what turns a pro into a recommendation.
📚
Brand directory and press kit
Your brand page, story, product images, and creative in one place. Every facility pulls approved assets from Summit, so your brand shows up right in every newsletter and on every shelf.
🔗
Facility codes and tracked links
Each facility gets its own code and link for your online store. Every online order is tied back to the facility that drove it.
✅
Proof on every deliverable
Facilities upload proof of each newsletter, brand day, and certification in Summit. Payouts are only released once the work is documented, so you never pay for an activation that did not happen.
📊
Campaign tracking and reporting
Orders, reorders, certifications, code sales, and deliverables by facility, in one view. Monthly reporting shows exactly what the program is delivering.

Put a pro behind it.
Then put that content everywhere.
Touring pros create content with your product. That content lives in Summit, runs through our media partners if you add them, and stays yours for your own channels. One shoot, working in every place your buyer looks.
The Peak roster
20+ touring pros.
One agency.
One agency.
Athletes competing at the top of the PPA, MLP, and APP, represented by Peak and ready to lead your campaign.
One shoot. Every channel.
This is where the campaign earns its keep, and where the PR comes from.
1
Pros create the content
Reels and posts with your product, made by athletes players actually follow and trust.
2
It lives in Summit
On your brand page, in your staff certification course, and in the creative facilities use for newsletters and brand days. Every facility in your program is selling with it.
3
Media partners amplify it
Add media in the next step and the same content is repurposed across our partner outlets. No second shoot, no second budget for creative.
4
It stays yours
You keep the NIL rights for your own social, site, email, and ads. The content keeps working long after the campaign.

Why a pro on your program is worth more than a face
When a player who competes at the highest level of the PPA, MLP, or APP is creating content with your product, talking about it on social, and using it in their training, that is credibility no media buy can replicate. Their audience is passionate, engaged, and buys what the pros use. The conversion lift is real but it goes beyond direct sales. You are also securing NIL rights, which means you own the right to use their name, image, and likeness in your own marketing, ads, and campaigns for the duration of the deal. That asset alone has compounding value well beyond the campaign itself. A brand that can say "used and endorsed by [pro name]" in any channel, whether digital, retail, or trade show, is a different brand than one that cannot.

Eric and our athlete team match the right pros to your brand, run the shoots, and make sure every piece of content lands in Summit, with our media partners, and in your hands.
Step 4 of 6
Add media, and the shelf stops being cold.
Activations put the product in players' hands. Media makes sure those same players already know the name before they walk up to the counter. Running athletes? Their content gets repurposed right here, so the same shoot runs again across our partners. Optional, and nothing is selected by default.
Where your message runs
We work directly with you to figure out which of the outlets below make the most sense for your campaign, then build the mix together and syndicate your message across them. This is not a menu you pick blind. We look at who you are trying to reach, what you are selling, and where that buyer actually pays attention, and we build the plan around it.

93% beginner to intermediate
The largest online pickleball platform in the world, with 600,000+ unique visitors a month and 20,000 new newsletter readers added every month. The size matters, but the engagement is what makes it work. A 45% open rate and 12% click through are numbers you almost never see in newsletter advertising. Their audience is overwhelmingly beginner to intermediate, which is exactly the buyer still forming brand loyalty and most likely to act on a recommendation from a source they already trust.

Industry readership
The leading publication covering pickleball as a global sport, with editorial spanning the PPA, APP, MLP, and international tours across Europe, Asia, and beyond. Published monthly in digital format, it reaches a serious readership of players, coaches, organizers, and industry professionals who follow the game well beyond their local courts. This is the publication that covers where the sport is heading, which makes it the right corner for a brand that wants to be seen as part of pickleball's future rather than just its current moment.

$19M spent annually by readers
Built entirely around the recreational player, the person who plays two or three times a week and spends real money on the sport. The newsletter goes out Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The audience skews 45 and older with 41% above $90,000 in household income, and 3 out of 4 buy a new paddle at least once a year. Beyond the inbox they run branded video, group getaways, and a 2,900-person survey community that brands can put questions in front of. This is the reader who is already loyal to the sport and still deciding which brands to be loyal to.
Your budget range
Select a range and we will build the media mix to fit it. The media budget is paid in full upfront at signing. Leave it blank if you are not ready to put a number on it.
On timing: depending on the budget and what we are trying to accomplish, these typically run as 3 to 6 month media pushes rather than a single drop. A one time placement gets seen and forgotten. A sustained push is what builds recognition. We will lock the exact length and cadence once we have identified the outlets and built the mix around them.

Full omnichannel
We also believe you should add a handful of pro athletes alongside media. Pros create the content, and their involvement gives the whole program a layer of validation that paid placement alone will never buy. Facilities, media, and athletes working together is where this becomes a real omnichannel effort instead of three separate line items.

Where these benchmark numbers come from
Rates are set on the conservative side of published industry averages for email, in store display, and event retail. Newsletter clicks assume your brand shares the Brands We Love section with other brands. In facility display reach counts half of monthly visits, because the same members visit several times a month. Brand day buyers purchase from the facility's own stock, so their spend is counted once, inside wholesale orders, not again as online revenue. Every rate is editable so you can run the numbers with your own data.
4. What it returns
*For illustration only. Every return and reach figure on this page is a hypothetical example built from industry benchmarks and the assumptions shown above. It is not a forecast, promise, or guarantee of results. Revenue figures are before cost of goods, shipping, and other expenses, not profit, and reach figures are estimates based on typical list sizes and traffic for each tier. Actual results will vary with your product, pricing, inventory, facility execution, and market conditions, and may be lower. Nothing on this page is part of any agreement with Peak Pickleball Agency unless it is written into a signed contract.

Ready to build this?
Your program configuration and full projection are attached automatically. Fill in the details below and it comes straight to our team.
This form is not the agreement. Submitting it does not commit your brand to anything and does not start the campaign. It tells our team you are ready, and we use your configuration to prepare the actual agreement. That agreement comes back to you for review, and nothing moves forward until you have read it and signed it. Consider this the next step, not the execution.
