Sampling: SIFI VideoRelax at Misano World Circuit 2017

Sponsoring Sifi with a leading Sports Marketing Agency

While the San Marino and Riviera di Rimini MotoGP Grand Prix was underway, a vast sampling operation was engaging thousand of fans in the vending area of the Misano World Circuit.

SIFI, the Catania-based pharma and eye-care powerhouse, while busy on track with premier-class outfit LCR Honda, had chosen the Marco Simoncelli Circuit to dish out thousands of samples of their latest offspring: the VideoRelax eyedrops.

A Cal Crutchlow-customized stand in the vending area of the track, open to all ticket holders, was center for a 3-day operation featuring 7 hostesses, 2 umbrella-girls and several coordinators.

Also, and much to the audience’s delight, Lucio Cecchinello himself payed a visit to the vending area and the VideoRelax stand, handing out autographs to the joyous fans and taking pictures.

I have known and worked with Riccardo Tafà since 1995 when we collaborated for the first time on a project for the Williams Formula 1 team. Several clients followed. After leaving Williams to work for Gerhard Berger then owner of the Toro Rosso F1 Team, I turned again to Riccardo to seek his help in finding a tool supplier for the team and Riccardo duly obliged with an introduction to USAG, a partnership with Toro Rosso which endured for five years. I recently started a new role as Group Commercial Director for the renowned Andretti Autosport organisation and I find myself working with Riccardo once again on a number of interesting projects. Why has this relationship with Riccardo endured ? He’s smart, knows the commercial side of sport inside out and back to front and he’s honest and trustworthy. Riccardo Tafà is a “doer” not a “talker”: in over 20 years I have never had a dispute either with him or with a company that he has introduced and each partnership introduced by Riccardo has delivered quantifiable ROI to rights holder and sponsor alike. I can think of no better testimonial of Riccardo’s diligence, knowledge, contact base and hard work than that.
