carsponsorships.com or something else? That doesn't sound like the same company I'm dealing with. They notify you by email something like this: (actual acceptance letter of mine)
4/22/05 4:45PM EST:
Congratulations Lionel! We are pleased to inform you that a national automotive
company has picked you up for sponsorship for the upcoming 2005 car show season.
The amount and the details of the sponsorship are being negotiated and finalized
with the company at this time by our staff on your behalf. As in any sponsorship
we secure, it will be a full sponsorship which means you do not have to pay for
products, shipping or incur any other costs associated with the sponsorship. By
the end of the day we will have your sponsorship package drawn up and sent to
you via first class mail. This package will have all the information on the
sponsorships including decals, vouchers, sponsor information, and other
pertinent information you will need. Please keep in mind that our team has
negotiated and secured this sponsorship based on the information you provided on
your application.
Also, because your application meets one or more of our guidelines, our Advanced
Placement Department (APD) is interested in your qualifications. They are
currently reviewing your application and will be working to get you an
additional sponsorship. APD uses strict standards to place qualified applicants
and many times they are able to get additional sponsorships.
We are sending your sponsorship package to the following address:
Lionel Pitts
xxxxxxxxxx
CHATTANOOGA, TN 37406
If the address is incorrect please email us immediately with the correct
information.
Although we are always here to help you build a relationship with your sponsors,
ultimately, it is your responsibility to contact them and keep them informed on
your progress and events that you attend.
In addition to the 2 sponsorships above, APD would like to give you an
opportunity to get another sponsorship. Let’s see how you do:
Hi Lionel, my name is Amy Chase from the Advanced Placement Department of
CarSponsorships.com. If you are going to be entering your car into any of the
Hot Import Nights Car Shows please contact me AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. We have
immediate but limited full sponsorship openings ($7,000+) for your CHEVROLET
CAMARO. Unfortunately, APD can’t award this sponsorship to you based solely on
your online application because our sponsors rely on us to find and screen all
applicants completely to insure that they can fulfill their obligations. We know
you have good intentions, and that’s why we are giving you this opportunity, but
we need to hear from you and feel confident that you will follow through with
this sponsorship commitment. This sponsorship package for the 2005 H.I.N. show
venue will include tires from Dunlop, full suspension from B&G Suspension, rims
from Raveann.com Wheels, lighting from StreetFX, bulbs from VisionBulbs, free
subscriptions from Performance Auto & Sound Magazine and many other products
from our partners. If you are interested and can attend at least 1 H.I.N. show
please submit your inquiry to our Advanced Placement Department by going to:
http://www.carsponsorships.com/form/sponsorships.php I will be your contact
person for the HIN show venue only and will review your qualification form.
Please don’t delay; the first H.I.N. Show starts March 5, 2005.
Remember, CarSponsorships.com doesn’t stop working for you just because we have
obtained these initial sponsorships. Depending on how well you build a
relationship with us and your sponsors will determine what sponsorships we will
be able to issue you. Not only will we get you sponsored by larger companies,
every 30 days you will receive an email from us with new sponsorships that you
can easily and immediately get approved for. Under no circumstances are you ever
charged for these additional sponsorships. Over the course of the year, you may
receive many more sponsorships for your car. We work with many major automotive
companies like Dunlop, B&G Suspension, Megan Racing, Blaupunkt Audio,
Performance Auto & Sound Magazine, StreetFX Lighting Systems, Raveann Wheels,
HouseofBoom, Vision Bulbs, Decalkits.com, WheelsNext and many others to bring
you great sponsorships from companies that you know and trust.
We can’t emphasize enough the importance of you keeping in close contact with
us. We realize that you have already made an effort to fill out our application,
but we also want to get to know you and your car better. We have many
sponsorships available but we will only award them to those that show us the
effort. We need to feel confident that you are reliable, professional and will
represent our sponsors to the fullest.
Again, we look forward to working with and you should receive your sponsor
package within 7-10 days. Have a great night and don’t forget to contact Amy if
you are interested in the H.I.N. Sponsorship.
Sincerely,
CarSponsorships.com
