Should Koi show people get sponsored by Koi companies. Let's just say that a person who is notable for showing koi gets sponsored. He uses X brand of food and x brand of a number of things to condition his koi well for a show.. So at the show he wears a shirt Plastered by all of the sponsors and uses brand X for a neet and Brand X for a tub. He has to show to X amount of koi shows a year. With all the companies they want in as well. So they also sponsor different people.
Well the trend is set and we have many people showing awesome koi learning trying to get the edge anyway they can. This then leads to more people showing and those newbies or unsponsored people trying to do the same as the best of the best..
Good for Koi Industry?
Good for shows?
Good for companies?
Good for the industry as a whole.....
No money has been exchanged so not really professional is it?
Hope this made sense...
Give me your thoughts?
