This is the message that I was thinking of e-mailing to possible sponsors
Please proofread (english is not my native tongue) and make suggestions for changes.
I want to send these out tonight...

cheers,

Jeroen

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello,

We are looking for sponsors for the 914 West Coast Classic event that will happen on june 4,5 and 6 this summer.
The WCC, will be THE event for 914 owners this year with participants for all over the USA
So far, we have about 50 cars registered (registration ends april 30th)

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
First of all, we are looking for sponsors for the Rallye Shields.
We can print your company logo (in 1 color) on the Rallye Shields that will be on ALL of the attending cars. We have 3 spots for sponsors available on the Rallye Shield, but if you prefer, you can of course claim all 3 spots. We are aiming for $100 per spot for the Rallye Shield

You can see a preview of the Rallye Shield here:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-...-1077070925.gif
The dimensions of the Rallye Shield are approx. 12.5 inch wide and 7.5 inch heigh

The final design of the Rallye Shields will go to the printer may 5th (yes, that's next wednesday!) so if you would like to be in on this, you will need to decide fast.
Of course as a sponsor, you will receive an extra example of this great piece of memorabilia.

Other sponsorship possibilities could be "adopting" one of the 914 West Coast Classic sub-events (like the AX, the Concours, etc.)

Donations in the shape of 914 parts are also welcome.
The donated parts will be raffled during the event, at which time your name will be mentioned again.
This is a great way to promote your company.

Furthermore, we are open to any and all sponsoring suggetions you might have, so please don't hesitate to ask!

WHAT DO WE OFFER IN RETURN?
We can add a brochure, flyer, sticker or businesscard of your company to the "goodie bags" that each participant will receive at the start of the event.

Each and every sponsor will be mentioned during the event and on the event-website.

On the event-website, we will include your company logo, address, phone#, web address and e-mail address.
The event-website will be expanded with photo's and reports, so you'll enjoy your sponsorship for a long time even after the actual event has ended.
The event-website is part of www.914world.com which is the biggest online 914 community taking over 10.000 hits a day!

You can either sponsor the event financially, or if you prefer, by donating 914 parts of a comparable value.
As mentioned, these parts will be raffled during the event, at which time your name will be mentioned again.

For more information about the event you can check:
http://www.914world.com/westcoastclassic/
or the Bulletin Board on http://www.914world.com

Or feel free to e-mail me.

Thanks for your time!

Jeroen Berloth

looks good only a couple things:

1. Here in the US we use a decimal for dimensions 12.5 inches, etc...
2. just below the dimensions you use ofcourse, it should be two words of course.

Nice job!

instead of webaddress, maybe web address? Looks great though. I can't believe we have a foreigner composing our letter to sponsors. Your english is better than mine!! Thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)

I guess we've been too cheap offering the spots on the Rallye Shields for $100 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
All 3 spots are gone!!!

Mueller takes the last spot

Lets hope other sponsors will follow

cheers,

That is one of the many thing we will be able to capitalize on for next year. Our first WCC is a learning experience. I am impressed that we are going to be able to pull it off at all. After we have this successful event under our belts, next year will be even better. Sponsors may even contact us to help with the 2nd WCC.

Here's to the planning committee. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Good job!

Yeah, $100 is dirt cheap for a name on the shields.

Also, I noticed AA is not on the list. I know they are not the 'vendor or choice' for many people here, but I'm not sure that we should purposefully exclude them.

Man, this if fucking snowballing.
I seriously NEVER EVER expected this much response...

Like Brad said, WEVO was the 4th to bite for the Rallye Shield
Unfortunately just seconds to late (last spot went to Mueller)
I'm sure we can work out something else

Further, Dave from GPR offered t-shirts for each participant and door prices

James Adams aperantly had already send Jeff a fuse box ($129,-) and a fog light module ($25) and he will add a trunk pivot kit ($65).
I didn't know about this deal. Am I in trouble (since the spots on the Rallye Shield are already gone but he is offering much more than $100 in raffle parts)???

cheers,

Jeroen
