Agency-Level Strategy for
Programs the Big Agencies Ignore

The major sponsorship agencies only take the biggest clients. Zubie Five brings the same sponsorship strategy, valuation, and sales execution to D2/D3/NAIA athletics, independent minor league teams, and motorsports — commission-only, with no upfront cost.

Built for the Programs That Get Skipped

If a national agency has never called you back, that's not a reflection of your program — it's a reflection of their minimum deal size. This is where we start.

🎓

Lower-Division & Small College Athletics

D2, D3, NAIA, and juco athletic departments — especially outside the Power 5 — sitting on local and regional sponsorship revenue nobody has gone out and gotten for them yet.

Independent Minor League Teams

Unaffiliated, self-funded minor league and semi-pro teams across any sport that need a real sponsorship program, not just whatever a board member's cousin can sell on the side.

🏎️

Motorsports

Local and regional racetracks, race teams, and individual drivers — passionate, loyal fan bases with sponsorship assets that are almost always priced and sold well below their real value.

Too Big to Ignore, Too Small for the Big Agencies

National sponsorship agencies build their business around a handful of major properties — Power 5 athletics, major league affiliates, national racing series. Everyone below that line is left to handle sponsorship sales themselves, usually as an unpaid extra duty stacked on top of an athletic director's, GM's, or owner's actual job.

That gap is exactly where Zubie Five operates. You get the same asset valuation, prospecting, pitching, and negotiation discipline a major program would pay a retainer for — structured commission-only, so there's no fee unless we actually close revenue for you.

Track, Team, and Driver Are Three Different Deals

Motorsports sponsorship isn't one product — a facility, a race team, and an individual driver each carry different assets and need a different pitch. We treat them that way.

🏟️

Tracks & Facilities

Facility and turn naming rights, trackside and wall signage, VIP hospitality suites, and event-title sponsorships across a full race season calendar.

🏁

Race Teams

Car livery and primary/associate sponsor placement, contingency and awards programs, hauler and pit signage, and season-long team sponsorship packages.

🧑‍🚀

Individual Drivers

Personal endorsement deals, social media and content sponsorships, and appearance fees — built around the driver's own brand, separate from the team's.

The Same Process, Whatever You Run

One engagement, four steps — you focus on the program, we focus on the revenue.

1
We Value Your Assets
Signage, digital reach, hospitality, naming rights — priced at real fair market value, not guesswork.
2
We Build the Package
Tiered sponsorship packages with clear deliverables, pricing, and exclusivity terms — ready to pitch.
3
We Sell & Negotiate
We prospect, pitch, and close local and regional brands on your behalf — start to signed agreement.
4
You Pay Nothing Upfront
Commission-only. We earn a percentage of what we close — nothing until a deal is signed.
Illustrative Example — Not an Actual Client

A D3 athletic department with no dedicated sponsorship staff brings in Zubie Five to build its first real sponsorship program: signage in the gym, a jersey patch for its top program, and a title sponsor for the season-opening tournament. Zubie Five values the assets, builds the package, and closes deals with three regional businesses — the department books its first sponsorship revenue in program history, at zero cost until the deals were signed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do we need a big following already? +
No. Local and regional brands often care more about audience quality, community trust, and exclusivity than raw follower counts. We price and pitch what you actually have, not what a national program has.
Do you work with individual drivers, or only teams? +
Both. A driver's personal endorsement deals are a different product from the team's or car's sponsorship — different brands, different pitch, different agreement. We handle each on its own.
What division levels or leagues do you work with? +
D1 programs outside the Power 5, D2, D3, NAIA, juco, and any independent or unaffiliated minor league or semi-pro team, in any sport. If a national agency wouldn't take your call, we're built for exactly that gap.
We already have someone handling sponsorships part-time. Is this worth it? +
Usually, yes — most part-time efforts leave real revenue on the table simply from lack of time, not lack of opportunity. Since we're commission-only, there's no cost to finding out what a dedicated effort turns up.
How much does this cost? +
Sponsorship strategy and sales work is commission-only — nothing until we close revenue for you. Project-based work like website or media kit development is quoted separately, up front, with no surprises.
