What is a sponsorship? I will tell you what it is NOT first..
💥Entitlement💥
You are not entitled to shit.
Reread that statement again.
With the shop, we get asked for “discounts”, “a good deal”, “free stuff”, etc…. I can keep going.
Here’s the thing, ARE YOU DOING ANYTHING TO BENEFIT THE SHOP?! (Or any company you try to get buddy deals with)
If you’re not sure, then your probably not. So before you ask/expect maybe do something that helps us help you.
🔥 Like our pages, posts, and share them.
🔥 Recommend us to your friends. We do stock parts riders/racers actually need.. and we ship anywhere in the USA
🔥 Help us sell bikes.
🔥 Tag us in posts.
🔥 Put our logo on your bike.
Being “sponsored” is not just about how fast you are. Its not just about being a “top rider”. It’s about who you are as a person. It’s about what you do that benefits us. It’s the little things that add up. The more you give, the more you bring to the table, the more of a positive impact, the more you will get in return.
It is not just about YOU. It is about ALL OF US. It’s a TEAM effort. Sponsorship/discounts in exchange for growth of the brand. So PLEASE do your part BEFORE you expect.
And also keep in mind, when searching for the “best deal”, think about the kind of service you are receiving, who keeps the parts in stock so you don’t miss a race, who helps with tech questions…
