Who Wants Bass Fishing Sponsors?

On this episode, we are taking questions about bass fishing sponsorships. Yes, the title is funny because who wouldn't want a sponsorship if they have a passion for fishing, right? However, how much does everyone really know about what a true sponsorship entails? Does a company send you all the gear you want and pay for all of your expenses? If this is what you are expecting, you best be prepared to lower your expectations or move on. People who have been in the industry for awhile now have learned to change their entire frame of mind when it comes to sponsorships, which are now more appropriately considered partnerships. If you are newer to the industry, this episode is going to be priceless for you. We have had multiple requests for this exact topic and have already received multiple questions. However, if you have specific questions on this topic, then email the show at womensworldoffishing@gmail.com. We are going to cover who might be good for you to approach, how to approach them, how to get what, or some, of what you want, jersey development, and anything else you would like us to address.
