Sponsors

[boostisgood]

Anyone here have any ? Imma lookin into getting some sponsorship for my Mazdaspeed, and just wondering if anyone has gone through the process and with whom ?

I know the process, and what sponsors look for, just getting a feel of who to and not to contact.

Thanks

Craig

P.S. If you own a company and interested PM me.

UGOT ... Meguiars... u got proof of that one? Unless your car is COMPLETELY show ready, I have a hard time believing you.

My bf was sponsored by several aftermarket companies with his Cougar and let me tell ya ... you need to spend several thousand dollars on your car and win ALOT of shows before any major company will even think about it.

As for RacerX ... I got the 10k one too... waiting on a contract before I accept.

I had this guy here who said if I planned on doing more stuff to my car he could prob hook me up with a kenwood sponsership

Yeah,

I applied for the RacerX online yesterday. I also got a local tuner shop sponsor deal in the works. Guess when I get my FMIC done and a few more mods, Ill start sending out my Sponsorship resume.

Thanks,

Protege5gurly,

It is not always just about your car, it is about how you present yourself and your car together to potential sponsors.

sounds like somebody just got own3d...

Thats funny since Craig Lieberman is the sponsorship director ... if its true, good for you ... I personally dont use Meguiars ... 90% of the time the smaller companies (Coats Products) make an overall higher quality product.

I have known several people who have tried to obtain sponsorship from them, and only one has succeeded -- James Howard --- www.customcougars.com ... you will see why.

IIRC, Craig Lieberman was the youth marketing director for Meguiars. Not the Sponsorship director. (dont remember the name of the guy ATM)

This was because Liebs(god i really cant stand the guy for getting rid of an r-34 GT-R for a frikin Lambo) is soo wrapped up in moviecarz.com and being a "film consultant" for all the car tv shows and movies (2F2F)

I know I met the Sponsorship director last year at NOPI (I got his card but cant find the damn thing) and it was not Craig.

I might be wrong now it couldve changed.

Last thing I knew, Lieberman was S/D for meguiars... either way.... like I said .. I just find it hard to believe that Meguiars sponsored a basically stock car, with stock paint. I know for a fact that to be sponsored, the car has to have full custom paint... not just a repaint with some pearl .. CUSTOM... and for the glass to be removed when doing so.
