Halo Top Is Sponsoring Everyday Athletes Committed to Achieving Their New Year’s Resolutions
LE MARS, Iowa /PRNewswire/ — New Year, new you, new endorsement deal? Halo Top, maker of lower calorie, higher protein ice cream, wants ice cream lovers to get paid for sticking to their resolutions with a sweet new endorsement deal—and to enjoy delicious ice cream along the way!
More than half of Americans make New Year’s resolutions, and while these are set with the best of intentions, resolutions can prove difficult to keep. In fact, only 9% of Americans stick to their New Year’s resolutions1, making those that do the real MVPs. As America’s favorite light ice cream brand, Halo Top is giving these everyday resolution keepers the MVP treatment they deserve by offering them an endorsement deal that includes plenty of delicious, lower calorie Halo Top ice cream to make sticking to their goals that much sweeter.
“It’s pretty easy to get discouraged by New Year’s resolutions when they are too rigid or limiting,” said Ryan Roznowski, Halo Top Director of Brand Marketing. “But when there is a way to progress on our wellness journeys without having to cut out the things we love—like ice cream—sticking to New Year’s resolutions is something we can all pull off.”
The brand is building a team of Halo Top Athletes2, and offering them an ice cream lover’s dream: a $5K endorsement deal and plenty of Halo Top ice cream to stock their freezer and fuel their resolution journey. Of course, no endorsement deal would be complete without exclusive swag, a series of 1:1 coaching sessions, and a talent manager. Selected Halo Top Athletes will share their journey online, showing how they are sticking to their resolutions while enjoying Halo Top ice cream every step of the way!
“We can’t wait to help our Halo Top Athletes pursue their goals—whatever they might be—and prove that delicious light ice cream and wellness resolutions can go hand-in-hand,” added Roznowski.
From training to run that first marathon, habit tracking or picking up a new sport, fans interested in joining the Halo Top Athletes team can visit HaloTopAthletes.com and apply by sharing their 2024 wellness goals. Applications are open now until January 20, and the final roster of Halo Top Athletes will be announced February 20.
