Tips for Success
Start local
The businesses most likely to sponsor your team are the ones within 5 miles of your field or facility. They benefit from the foot traffic and community connection.
Be specific about what they get
Don't just say 'banner sponsorship.' Say '4×8 vinyl banner on the first-base fence, visible to all 200+ spectators at every home game.' Specificity builds confidence.
Follow up (politely)
Most sponsorships happen after the second or third contact. Send your proposal, wait 5 business days, then follow up with a phone call. Persistence is respectful, not pushy.
Offer a 'starter' tier
A $100–$200 Community Supporter tier lets businesses try sponsorship with low risk. Many will upgrade to higher tiers the following season once they see the value.
Show the numbers
Tell sponsors how many families are on your team, how many spectators attend games, and your social media reach. Businesses understand impressions — speak their language.
Make renewal easy
At the end of each season, send a simple renewal email with next season's options. Include a photo of their banner/logo in action. Renewals are easier than new sales.
