Recently, Ebonite International, Inc. stopped selling its house balls through distributors. Instead, Ebonite now reaches bowling centers on a direct basis, through it’s Bowling Center Direct program. Indiana is now one of the programs newest members. Bowling Center Direct allows Ebonite to deliver its house balls to bowling centers on a more economical and efficient basis. However, Ebonite would like to go further than just selling house balls at good prices. It is now a promotional vehicle for all member state’s proprietor’s as well. Here is how it works. For every Ebonite Super Solar House Ball purchased, at a special price, by an Indiana Bowling Centers Association member, Ebonite will contribute $1.00 per ball to the IBCA marketing fund. For IBCA members, regular house balls will be sold for only $29.00. Drilled and engraved balls, can be purchased by members for only $31.50. Ebonite has also added rental shoes to this program. These vinyl shoes with padded arches, vented uppers and rubber soles are also bacteria resistant, to prevent odor. These shoes come with a $0.50 per pair rebate and are only $16.95 for up to 47 pairs. For youth leagues, Ebonite is also providing special pricing to Indiana proprietors on all of its Garfield and Odie products. Many of these products will also have contributions made to the IBCA marketing fund when purchased. To get started, the bowling center orders a Garfield Have-A-Ball Promotion Kit, which arrives fully stocked with everything needed to promote the event, including balls, bags, towels, sign up sheet and more. The kit price of $199.95 includes shipping and handling. Garfield and Odie balls are priced at $30.50 and Garfield bags are only $8.50. The IBCA marketing fund will receive $1.00 per bag and $0.50 per bag sold.
