Hey everyone. so i figured i would ask something would prob. benefit everyone here. ive been curious if anyone knows about getting sponsorships. i have seen a bunch of web sites saying give them lots of money and they will think about it. I dont think i trust that but if anyone knows anything that everyone else prob. doesnt could you fill us in. Thanx for everyone being here
If you are looking for sponsorship, then use CarSponsorships.com. They are a legitimate company and can get you sponsorships within 48 hours. We refer them to people who want us to make them custom work but can't afford all the goodies.
You'll get an online portfolio, create invites for companies to come to you, accept and deny offers that come to you, and you'll get corporate access normally restricted to partners or complete sponsorships normally.
$90 to get started and $8/month for portfolio fees sounds like it is a lot, but in many cases, you'll get much more free stuff and/or enough discounts to save you that money in a VERY short time (usually made up in less than 14 days)
In some cases, you can have your whole car sponsored. A cousin from one of people here hasn't paid for anything on his car for over a year now. He has rims & tires, exhaust, intake, body kit, decals, interior etc... fully paid for.
The kick back to this option is that each contract will vary from sponsorship to sponsorship. CS.com only provides the access to all the contracts, they do not control them (or have very limited control). Most sponsorships will require you to attend a car show or two every year with the sponsored car and present proof (ID, stubs, etc) CS doesn't charge you more for more offers.
Overall, CS is very good and even had a spot in Trifecta and SEMA. Good option if you are on a limited budget (or no budget) and don't mind using certain brands. If some company were to offer me lots of free goodies (such as a complete sound package) but they are not my top preference, I would still accept it.
Hope this helps. If you do decide to go through CS, where the application asks for a brief summary, add that BellsRacers referred you to them.
