Sponsor Spotlight – Hopewiser

Over the coming weeks, we will be showcasing all of our 2020 Kit Partners, Training Range Partners, Rewards Partners and First Team Player Sponsors.

Widnes Vikings are proud to be sponsored by Hopewiser for the 2020 season.

Founded in 1982, the Addressing business, created in the family attic, spotted a gap in the market for postcoding software. Since then, Hopewiser has grown into a hugely successful company that has offices in both Altrincham and Melbourne, Australia.

Headed up by General Manager, Jon Good, Hopewiser pride themselves on providing accurate, fast and reliable addressing software, with services such as Address Lookup, Data Cleansing and Bank Account Validation.

Hopewiser first engaged with the Vikings as Executive Sponsors of their Championship clash against York City Knights in 2019, as they enjoyed an afternoon in one of the club’s executive boxes.

Their experience at that fixture led to the company pledging their support to the Vikings this season, and they now appear on the back of all three 2020 playing shirts.

The connection doesn’t end there though, as Academy graduate and current member of the Reserves squad, Ollie Brookes, has recently taken up a job opportunity at their Altrincham office. With the current government guidelines in place, Ollie is working hard from home and has a great future ahead of him within the company.

Due to the current Coronavirus pandemic, many organisations have had to rethink their business processes over the last few weeks, for example restaurants, bars and local shops now doing home deliveries. Capturing the correct address is now more important than ever, with some organisations not having the time to think about the address data they are collecting. That’s where Hopewiser would like to assist.

Hopewiser are currently offering free advice and access to Address Lookup with no obligations and no lock-in clauses. Their Address Lookup will capture an accurate address during the checkout, which means failed deliveries or customer issues are significantly reduced. Unlike some search engines, they use Royal Mail data so businesses can be sure it is up-to-date and accurate.

So, if you’re a business that is currently delivering to homes during these unprecedented times, click on the below button to see how Hopewiser can help you continue to offer the best possible service while helping your local community.

Widnes Vikings would like to thank Hopewiser for their valued sponsorship of the club.
