Sponser Wanted

[tamara1779]

Hey all, hoping someone can help. I race speedway in Cairns & Mareeba(about 65km inland from Cairns) I've had some engine 'issues' . Anyway, I'm desperately chasing a sponser- preferably for engine works/parts etc. Being a female racer,not too many want to sponser me. I'm hoping that someone on ford forums knows someone who will. Here's some details to help.

Car - EA 351 cleveland - Finished 5 out of 11 race meetings last year and finished 3rd overall for my class. (I was first but had 90 points deducted at end of season for oil burning off my exhaust WTF???) At the moment I'm chasing reliability
Last year I competed in the NQ titles in Cairns, but didn't finish (engine gave out AGAIN....
I'm prepared to race in Cairns for the whole season if the sponser wants.

Hope someone can help..

Might be helpful to list what sort of exposure your future potential sponser would get. Also perhaps drafting a more professional looking proposal might be in your benefit.

List things that would excite a sponser like

*Over XXX amount of people come to spectate one race meeting which would mean great exposure for your company

*I reguarly attend Speedyway shows/events and have my race car on display, where i could have business cards/brouches from your business for spectators to take.

All the best with gaining sponsership

Yeah if you can show the prospective business how they benifit you might have a better chance.

Okay, taking some advice from Riding High. Mareeba Races there's not too much of a crowd, but I can display the car on the main drag into town, announcements about the business over the PA I'll also recommend the business to everyone I possibly can.
Cairns- race twice/fortnight or as rostered. A big crown for us - few thousand a night. Of course the sponsers business name goes on the car. I'll also display the car outside their premises and allow it to be used for any promotional days, business cards or advertisements. All can be negotiated. Prefer to keep the car colour the same- it's a family thing, plus the colour really stands out from the other usual red, blue, white and black ( car is painted bright green) Sponsers name on shirts, racing suits etc and mention sponsers name when collecting medallions & trophies. Photo of car to display in business with trophies etc. Anyway some things to ponder.

Maybe a photo of your race car will help? I was in junior sedans for 5 years running and we were never offered a sponser after winning 1 state title and coming runner up in 3.

Good luck :jab:
