In the fall of 2010 we at Chuck This started a campaign designed to let the show’s advertisers know that we appreciate their financial support of NBC’s Chuck. The intent was to show them their advertising dollars were well spent on this intelligent, active and good looking audience, and that continuing to do so would be the smart thing to do.
Chucktoberfest, as we called it, is over but a new campaign has begun. It’s time to #SaveChuck again and this time we’ve got a new mission: thank the sponsors, contact the network, stream, recruit, stream, recruit.
Here are a (partial) list of companies, products that help support Chuck, and ways to reach them on-line. Here’s what you can tell them:
Dear [Paste Company Name Here]
I am a fan of the NBC television’s Chuck, and wish to thank you for your continuing advertising support of this show. Because Chuck fans are active, engaged and intelligent viewers, your advertising dollars were well spent. Because of your good decision to support this show, I promise to consider your product when making my consumer choices.
If and when you have purchased in support of these companies and Chuck, please do let them know that via email, facebook, twitter, etc. Also consider supporting Zachary Levi’s company The Nerd Machine, for reasons stated here.
