Securing a sponsorship involves establishing a mutually beneficial relationship between JDC and the sponsored individual. Since we invest a significant part of our marketing budget in sponsored members, it's essential to meet specific requirements and maintain a professional approach.
Here are some key points to remember:
- Don't expect free products; partial sponsorships are more common. Understand that sponsorships often involve product discounts rather than outright free products. Companies, including JDC, have established discount structures to support sponsored members. High-profile builds may receive more significant discounts, but it's crucial to manage your expectations.
- Avoid acting entitled; be prepared for the responsibility of being a brand ambassador. Approach the sponsorship with humility and professionalism. As a JDC brand ambassador, you represent the company at shows, meets, and events. Embrace this responsibility, and be prepared to uphold JDC's reputation in all interactions.
- Research JDC products thoroughly to promote them effectively. Familiarize yourself with JDC's product offerings to effectively promote them to others. Knowledge of each product's features, benefits, and suitability for various vehicle builds will enable you to speak confidently and convincingly about them.
- Be a knowledgeable brand ambassador, able to discuss the benefits of JDC products with others. As a brand ambassador, you're expected to answer questions and discuss JDC products knowledgeably. Instead of merely listing product features, explain how they have enhanced your vehicle's performance and why others should consider them. This demonstrates your expertise and credibility as a JDC representative.
