Franklin Group Extends Official Partnership with Big South
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (www.BigSouthSports.com) – The Big South Conference is proud to announce the extension of its partnership with Franklin Group, an integrative marketing solutions firm dedicated to turning brand recognition into brand response.
As an “Official Corporate Partner” of the Big South, Franklin Group will continue to provide t-shirts for Conference Championships, as well as for the Big South’s Virtual 5K Race to benefit youth athletic programs across the Southeast and promotional gifts for this year’s first-ever Business to University Tour. Since partnering with the Big South in 2019, Franklin Group has provided participation gifts to more than 4,000 student-athletes, and outfitted every Big South conference champion with official “Champions” t-shirts and gear.
