Common Questions
Long Beach FAQs
Do you work with organizations throughout the Long Beach area? +
Yes — we work with youth leagues, school athletic departments, nonprofits, and parks & recreation departments throughout Long Beach and the rest of Los Angeles County, and we're expanding into new markets across Arizona, California, and Nevada.
What kind of Long Beach-area businesses sponsor youth sports? +
Local restaurants, healthcare providers, logistics and maritime companies, real estate agents, and regional/national brands looking to reach Long Beach's mix of port, university, and family audiences all sponsor through Zubie Five.
How much does it cost my organization? +
Nothing upfront. We're commission-only — typically 15–30% of the sponsorship revenue we close for you, scaled to deal size, with renewal rates that decline every season. $1,000 minimum per season across your whole sponsorship program — no minimum on any single sponsorship. We're paid only on money you actually collect, and your exact rates are in your agreement before we make a single call. See the full commission structure →
