BASS fisherman Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 First of all, SLOW DOWN!!! Don't get yourself into a deal that you simply can't hold up. There are companies out there that look for people like you to use as cheap labor, and they call it a "pro-staff" position. Check out the link below for all the info you could ever want or need to know about sponsorships. https://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?board=resume_ID Quote
Super User Sam Posted March 16, 2007 Super User Posted March 16, 2007 Listen to the guys. And what is the hurry? There are many posts on getting sponsors on this forum. Try to do a search or go back on this post site to look up other queries and replies. If you are really that good the sponsors will come looking for you. If you are average, what do you have that I, as a sponsor, want that will benefit my bottom line? Good luck and I sincerely hope you get some sponsors, either in or out of the fishing industry. Quote
Hale Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Do you know how to go out and get a good job? Getting a sponsorship is no different! If you walk into a chain store that has a posting in the window your going to get crappy/mediocre job. Searching out sponsors are no different...look for the ones that arent 'advertising' open positions. Go in with your A game and be prepared to sell yourself for that position. And all the same, be prepared to be turned down a handful of times before you get someone that shows an ounce of interest. And like the other guys said; slow down! Just like the analogy above, if rent is due Friday and you start looking for a job on Monday..your going to wind up finding a dead end crappy job becuase you didnt give yourself time to make a better decision.

topwtr81 Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 these guy's have fabulous point's listen to them. your haste to get sponsored leads me to believe that you don't really understand what it mean's to be sponsored. and that you are just in a hurry to wear someone's jersey. I was like that when I was a kid and I gave some companies alot of free impression's. Take time to learn the BUISINESS that is tournament fishing. it sound's like your young, if so get yourself a business management degree and enjoy fishing for now, there will be time in the future for bigger thing's Quote
