The problem is most people mistakenly think that they need to be a pro or at the top of their field to get corporate sponsorship and even if they think they could sponsored they have no idea where to begin or what to do.

To make matters worse those who have already gotten corporate sponsorship deals are often reluctant to let others know how easy it is to get sponsored because they are afraid they may be creating more competition for themselves and corporations don’t exactly run ads telling people that they’re looking for people, teams and events to sponsor.

You Can Get Corporate Sponsorship For Just About Anything

The truth is there are corporate sponsorship deals of all types no matter if you are a total beginner or a seasoned pro. There are hundreds if not thousands of corporate sponsors right now that are willing to pay you for your travel, your event fees, your equipment and even cash payments to help you get started.

Getting a corporate sponsor can free you from the stress and worry of paying for things so that you can focus on what you do the best. The best part is that once you have your first corporate sponsor it gets even easier to attract other sponsors because you have the appearance of already being valuable to someone else.

I Want Corporate Sponsorship But I Don’t Know Where To Start 

10 years ago I started an organization that provided coats for kids that didn’t have them. We had more dreams than we had money and by our second year we didn’t even have enough money to pay for half of the coats that we needed. I had heard of corporate sponsorship and I kind of knew what it was about but I really had no idea where to begin or how to approach potential sponsors.

Luckily I met someone who helped me get started. They showed me the best types of companies to approach, how to approach them and how to make our sponsorship deal irresistible. Within one week of starting we had more coats than we needed. In fact we had enough coats to last us well into the second year and it was easier than I had ever imagined.

From that moment on I dedicated myself to learning everything I could about corporate sponsorship. What I discovered was that there are sponsorship deals for just about anything you can imagine. Since then I have helped thousands of people get corporate sponsorship for events, sports teams, gamers, racers and athletes of all types. I’ve even helped people find sponsorship for movies, websites and theatrical productions.

Your Biggest Obstacle To Getting Sponsored is Doing Nothing

The biggest obstacle that keeps most people from getting started is that they only dream about getting sponsored and they never take action to actually do it. The amount of money you have or your experience level should never keep you from living your dream. That is why I created a free video that explains how just about anyone can get sponsored for just about anything. Click here to get your free corporate sponsorship video.

Sponsorship Trends Going Up

Get Sponsors

While our economy has taken a battering in the last year or so and all companies have retrenched somewhat, sponsorship trends have slowed but are still moving forward. As we emerge from the recession companies will be looking for fresh perspectives and a way to try and reach their potential clients once again. Traditional forms of advertising may start to take a backseat and creative sponsorship approaches seem destined for much growth.

It’s important to remember that over-deliverers are likely to gain the most and this applies in the world of business generally and in sponsor relations specifically. While there is always room for a brand-new or even intricate approach to a potential sponsorship arrangement, companies are increasingly looking to provide extra value and will be looking for the sponsored party to position accordingly as well.

While sponsorship spending grew by only a few percentage points last year, it is projected to grow back to double digit increases as we emerge fully from the recession. This trend is particularly encouraging and underlines that companies are willing to think “outside of the box” when it comes to marketing their products and services.

In 2008, it is estimated that upwards of $17 billion was spent by companies in the USA to sponsor individuals, teams, and organizations. This is a huge amount of money and while it backed off during the economic downturn, it still represents a considerable opportunity. A company cannot exist without marketing in one form or the other and there is plenty of potential for growth as the recession ends.

To capitalize on sponsorship trends, the sponsor seeker must aim to provide a realistic valuation of the package sought. There is a tendency to calculate how much money is actually required, based on how much it costs to run the operation, team, program or property. This should not represent an approach unless it automatically equates to the value that the company might receive.

Whenever a campaign is being created, differentiation must be the focus. Creativity and an ability to think outside the box will likely bring results. It is never good enough to think traditionally, or to even copy the efforts of other successful dealmakers. Remember to create a unique selling position for your entity and position it correctly.

It is estimated that as much as 68% of all sponsorship dollars are spent in the field of sports. Our society in general will continue its love affair with sporting events, but every facet of commerce is likely to see growth in sponsorship involvement this year and beyond.

Sponsorship trends may be well on the rebound, but as an active sponsor seeker you should be keeping your finger on the pulse of trends in general. If you can tie your product or service to something that is becoming of increasing interest within society, then you’ll likely be of great interest to companies across the board.
