Fishing Sponsorship for the 95%
How does a guy get sponsors if he doesn’t fish tournaments or have a resume’?
Kinda makes you wanna scratch your head and go Hmmmmmmmmmmm?
Over the past almost 4 years I’ve had the pleasure of knowing that hundreds and hundreds of anglers have benefited from my How To Got Sponsored For Tournaments e-books – 1 & 2 (http://www.FishForFREE.com & http://www.FishForFREE2.com ) and now The Sponsorship Seminar on CD http://www.fishingsponsorship.com/Sponsorship_CD.html
My post today is to provide a little more insight into the products I offer, especially for those who are naysayer’s when it comes to the FishForFREE.com products. On numerous occasions I’ve read posts on different fishing forums where anglers whom have and haven’t purchased my products provide opinions as to how my information isn’t legitimate, worthwhile, or valuable. Hey, I’m all for people voicing their opinions. We live in the LAND OF THE FREE and people have fought for us to be able to have the RIGHT to speak.
If you’ve ever visited any of my sites, or paid attention to professional bass fishing over the past 25 years, you’re aware that I’m not, nor have I ever been a pro angler. Not a big shock I hope. I did compete in tournaments on a local basis, here where I live for a few years, and was able to land cash-paying sponsors on a regular basis. Pretty much a weekend warrior if you will. I imagine I’m just like 95% of the anglers who love to compete in tournaments, but aren’t pros, but dream of becoming one some day.
When you become a pro angler, I’m sure you’re well aware that sponsorship pretty much comes your way because you’re in the limelight. You’re in front of hundreds, more like thousands on a regular basis, so major and minor tackle companies WANT to be on your jersey so the world can see. If you want that type of sponsorship, there’s no secret – START WINNING and winning regularly.
However, what do you do in the mean time? What do you do if you can’t whip the competition on a regular basis? Are you banned from requesting sponsorship? What do you do for sponsorship if you’ve just started fishing competitively? If you don’t land a tackle company as a sponsor, are you really sponsored? If you get product donations are you really sponsored? So many questions.
Pro BASS ELITE angler Randy Howell who endorses all FishForFREE.com products because he believes there is no other information like it available says, “The way I look at it is, it doesn’t matter who is paying your way to fish, as long as it is getting paid. I meet so many good fishermen in their local area that have so much potential, but give up because they have no monetary support. This information is the answer to that problem.”
Which leads me to this. If I were an angler spending hours seeking sponsorship information, and happened to find a source where proven techniques on how to land cash-paying (not products donations) sponsors was available I’d certainly investigate, even if it is from a guy who no longer fishes competitively and still is able to land a major tackle company sponsor.
The FishForFREE.com, FishForFREE2.com and Sponsorship Seminar on CD were created to help assist the 95% of anglers, who aren’t pros yet, obtain necessary sponsorship funds.
Bass wishes in getting sponsored!
