Step 1
Are You Ready to Ask?

Before you approach a single business, check off the basics. Sponsors write checks to organizations that look organized — this is the fastest way to look organized.

Step 2
What to Ask For

Starting-point ranges by organization size — not hard rules. Local market, sport visibility, and what you can actually deliver all move these numbers. For a precise number based on your real audience and market, run the full Asset Valuation Calculator — it's free.

Ranges assume annual/season-long terms and are directional starting points for a first conversation — most orgs undercharge relative to what national brand data supports for comparable community reach.
Step 3
Build Your Sponsor Tiers

Give businesses a menu, not a single ask. A tiered structure makes it easy for a $200 shop and a $5,000 regional brand to both say yes. Adjust deliverables to match what you can actually fulfill.
