Since starting, we've been lacking on much of anything which you would consider a team of skiers to help get the word out on Fauna Skis and that's certainly not because we don't want to support committed freeskiers, by, at minimum, providing them with equipment to ride on.
Real talk for sec, Fauna skis was my brainchild and with no outside private investors, only help from friends and family, some government small-business support and my own day job wage, I've got it from an idea for a single pair of skis in a ski building thread here on NS, to where it is today. It's for this reason, because of the cost of the short factory runs of skis I've been able to make, I'm limited to the skis I can just give out in the hope of returns.
With that understanding, we're looking for people to ride on our skis, spread the word and through getting others stoked on the skis to buy them themselves, we will return your cost of buying skis from us, effectively giving you free skis.
If you want to help a small, independent euro ski brand grow, are in need of a new pair of skis, like the look and sizes of our Alparka or Pioneer skis, keep reading.
Do you have an influence on people’s ski buying decisions? Whether that can be easily gauged from videos of your skiing, a string of contest results or by the thousands of followers you have on social media, or none of these and something different, for lack of a better title, the Fauna Skis Ambassador Programme is for you.
We would love to be able to just send you skis and let you use your influence to encourage others to buy them but, Fauna Skis is a small, self-funded business with small runs of skis and we can't afford to work that way on any scale right now. That is why we have come up with a model in which, if you buy skis using our ambassadors discount and really have got the skills and influence to encourage people to buy our skis, you’ll get back the money you spent on a pair of our skis quickly, and we’ll work however we can to support you.
How it Works
Fill out the short application form in the link with your name & email, IG handle & NS username (if you have either or both of them) and tell us why you think you would represent Fauna Skis well, and how you could get more people out having sick days on our skis. Once approved you’ll get your own discount code, which will get you 20% off any pair of our skis and a free t-shirt or hat.
After you’ve got your skis, anybody using your code will get 15% off the price of our skis. We'll keep track and keep you informed on the use of the codes and once 3 other people have used your code to buy their own skis, we will refund you the money you spent buying them, and you will of course get to keep your skis & merch.
Other ways you can get your skis for free as an Ambassador
If you’ve got a contact in a shop you get to start stocking our skis; you’re part of or know a ski club or team that you get to buy our skis, once they get in contact and buy the same value amount of skis as 3 people buying skis off the site, you’ll get your money back. Or if you’ve got an idea that we’ve not thought of that results in the same amount of sales as above, you’ll get your money back on skis.
If you already own a pair of Fauna Skis and want to become an ambassador, fill out the application and we’ll sort you out with a code for you to share and work toward getting the money back for your skis.
