Default RE: Any one know how to get a sponser?

ORIGINAL: fishguts

My first suggestion would be to learn how to spell sponsor, instructorand sponsorship. Also, learn proper grammar. How you speak/write will be a reflection of your ability to communicate with the public, which is what a company would pay you to do. There are too many guys just like you who can write in complete sentences. Why should anyone hire you over them?
Honestly, sponsorships aren't what they are cracked up to be. Very, very few people actually get money. Most get a free hat and maybe a few calls and T-shirts and stickers or other low-cost merchandise. The hunters who are paid to promote products are very, very good at what they do. They hunt nearly every day of the season and live on the edge of poverty because they love hunting ducks or deer or elk more than anything else or they are guides--which, come to think of it, are also on the edge of poverty.
There are a million young guys who love to hunt and have strong ethics and a deep respect for the game. They are no different than you. Those who make some money in the hunting industry have outgoing personalities, they work their tails off and are constantly involved in something related to hunting.
Hey fishguts, take this!

Hey PenguinLuke33, stay positive and don't listen to negative folks. Life is about attitude. The better yours is the better you will do. When guys like fishguts try and kick you in the nuts, just don't listen and keep on keeping on.

"Positive Mental Attitude" (PMA)is the best thing you can have on your side. No matter what you decide to do for a living.
The only way you can truly fail is not to try. Good Luck!!!
