Sponsorships

is their anyone on this forum thats sponsored i have been trying to get my car sponsored for 4 years everyone says no and its not even a economy thing no one even says anything about it and you know their making alot of money but wont throw one guy a bone to get his car started to make it into a business i just dont understand

Honestly man this post is a representation of why you might not be picking up any sponsors. Sounds like you're looking for a hand out. What steps have you taken in your pursuit of product? Do you have a sponsorship packet, rendering, references, past projects...? Companies aren't looking to just give stuff away. They want to see what the are going to get out of it in return. To say , "you know they are making a lot of money" and "throw one guy a bone" is definitely the wrong attitude to have.

Not seeing any pics in your profile, what is your project anyway?

If you need a sponsorship to complete a project, I think you're missing the whole point of the sponsorship.

be your own sponsor , certain people get sponsors because they worked hard and built an amazing truck/car and proved thier work and companys want to be proud of there sponsored rides and show case them

Good luck getting a sponsorship without something to back up your ability. Build your first ride, get the coverage then work on getting things. Nothing is for free and they need a quick return on investement. They are first and foremost a business not a hand out place regardless of profit.

too get a sponsorship first u have to spend money... most people want sick work already done to the vehicle and they want future plans and most of the time they want somethin thats already been in the show circuit...like every1 has said... u cant just expect stuff to be thrown at you.. and most of the time sponsorships arent a full sponsorship they're partial so you still have to fork out some money

come on guys, they have credentials... http://www.mafiacustomz.8m.com/catalog.html
