SPONSORSHIP PROPOSAL How does the growth of sponsorship compare to that of advertising and promotion? Sponsorship has been the FASTEST GROWING form of marketing for the PAST DECADE, outpacing the growth of MEASURED MEDIA and SALES PROMOTION each year.For example, while advertising grew 6.8% in 1999 over the previous year and sales promotion grew 7.4%, SPONSORSHIP GREW A WHOPPING 12%, and is projected to make even larger gains in the future! We are constantly searching for new and unique ways to put your name in front of your potential clients. 2004 Sponsors are on my sponsor page. All graphics are professionally done to your specifications. Racing fans are by far the most avid and loyal of any sport. It is very seldom that a racing fan will change allgiances. Local racing sponsorships are very attractive to companies looking to reach consumers on more of a personal level. Drivers are very accesible and the fans can get " up close and personal " with the team they follow. •  Racing is the fastest growing consumer sports entertainment market. •  Effectively target and reach your customers. •  Promotional programs for every budget. •  Stimulate store traffic and attract new customers. •  Strengthen customer loyalty. •  Atmosphere of excitement! •  FORTUNE MAGAZINE SAYS: SPEED SELLS!!!

Dear Potential Sponsor, This is your company’s opportunity to take advantage of a form of advertising that can bring attention to your business through one of the most popular sports in our area. Karting has typically been a sport filled with individuals geared only towards their racing, and not toward their sponsors interests. One of our most important goals at MANNING MOTORSPOTS is to involve our sponsors and their family of employees and customers with the operations of the team both at, and away from the track. We are also committed to learning and understanding our sponsors products and services so that we can speak to potential customers. MANNING MOTORSPOTS can be an extension of your sales force. There are many benefits in associating you company’s name with a race team.. The support of business owners, and company’s such as you is crucial to a successful racing program. Sponsors provide us with the means to realize our goals. Whether it is providing the many products and services needed to maintain the Karts, or help in defraying the cash outlay, sponsors make it all possible. I believe we can have a mutually beneficial business relationship, with the added bonus of the excitement of racing as a catalyst. We would like to help you advertise your business, while you help us race for the checkered flag. Thank you for your time and consideration. MY BACKGROUND I know that I will make you a good front man to advertise your buisness because of my past experiences.  I am a supervisor over the welding,fab and short run departments at BUSHHOG L.L.C. on second shift so I run my race team very effeicently and hopefully effective. I have past years of sales experience and some advertising , so with this in mind I hope I have proved my worth to your company and I hope you see the great team we could make together for both of our benifits. GOALS As  drivers, we anticipated many obstacles I would encounter. We learned that there are NO obstacles that cannot be over come without ingenuity and hard work. We have decided to turn our dreams into our Goals.. The many accomplishments and recognition I earned in the 2000 season in karts, started me on my way. We ran 2 tracks that season posting 7 poles and a list of top three positions In 2000 we posted a 3rd place points standing and was my first year running which I did not run the full series. 2001 we posted a 3rd and a 5th place points standing but was tied for the championship all year it really came down to the wire this was our first Buris National points series.    MANNING Motorsports In-Depth Sponsorship Information Now that you’ve reviewed the enclosed information about Manning Motorsports, we would like to tell you about the many different opportunities we would like to offer you and your company: Should you decide you would like to become involved with Manning Motorsports, we will advertise your company everywhere that we have presence .
