Who's Behind This
Home in Tempe for Over 13 Years

I'm the Founder of Zubie Five. I came to Tempe for Arizona State University, and I've been here ever since — more than 13 years now, through college, the start of my career, and now Zubie Five itself. This is literally where the company is headquartered.

This is the market I know best — I've lived here through all of it. Zubie Five brings that to Tempe's youth leagues, high school athletics programs, nonprofits, and parks & recreation departments — the programs that have real audiences and nobody selling for them.

Common Questions
Tempe-Area FAQs
Since you're headquartered in Tempe, do you only work with Tempe organizations? +
No — Tempe is home base, but we actively work with youth leagues, school athletic departments, nonprofits, and parks & recreation departments throughout the Valley, including Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler, Scottsdale, Gilbert, and Glendale, and we're expanding into new markets across Arizona, California, and Nevada.
What kind of Tempe-area businesses sponsor youth sports? +
Local restaurants, financial services and technology companies, auto dealers, real estate agents, and regional/national brands looking to reach ASU-area and Valley families 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 →
