Sponsors

[JaxBowlingGuy]

Does anyone have any ideas as to entry level companies that are bowling related, that could give sponsor oppurtunities? Im basically looking to pick up a small sponsor for about $50-$60 a month for either trny entry or lodging. Turbo Grips are currently not offering any spots and the ball companies are very tight as well... any info would be great

How about checking with your local center?

the centers in jax are horrible when it comes to any $ situations.. everyone is soo worried about making the $ to care about the bowlers.. they wont host any tournaments because they dont want to come down on lineage or miss out on open/cosmic bowlers...

ideas?? lol

The company would get some good advertisement.. I shoot atleast 1 tournament a week and a big tournament once a month in Orlando.. I wouldnt be able to do any advertisement during regionals due to a few rules but all other trnys and such are fair game.

What does your resume look like? Without a large number of honor scores, titles in large events, or ownership of a pro shop, companies generally won't sponsor you. Things are tough all over and companies started retracting sponsorship and contracts to those few meeting these requirements.

Instead, you might want to look for someone willing to stake you in tournaments for which you'd share a portion of any winnings. That's going to be private individuals and requirements will vary.

You can earn > $60/month by giving plasma once a month.

Any sponsor is looking for a return on their investment. If someone sponsored you, what is the liklihood they will be able to recoup their investment and make a few bucks? It's hard to find pure gifts out there with no expectations.
