FrontGate Media’s Offer of the Month for NOVEMBER 2012 is our IXIST TOUR.  

Coming in Winter 2013, the IXIST TOUR will kick off in late February, routing across the U.S. through March and then on to Africa, where the tour will travel to six countries.

Why should you sponsor this tour?

• Low $250 per date price provides the most bang for your budget buck. Look at what you get in the package!
• Focused attention on your brand/product – we’re looking for six key sponsors to focus on.
• Unique testimonials-driven tour theme delivers great evangelistic platform.
• Connects you to cross-ethnic audience of evangelistic, activated Caucasian, African-American and Latino Christians.
• The tour comes as Christian hip-hop and urban music is exploding, evidenced by the Billboard charting milestone: TobyMac’s “Eye On It” debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
