About The Frugal Find:

Blogs like mine are transforming the way people shop and providing businesses a way to quickly and effectively reach thousands of people at the click of a mouse. Because of my experience with your products, I wanted to contact your company about an amazing sponsorship opportunity.

I am going to be attending a Blogging Conference in Harrisburg, PA in October 2010. Relevant 2010 is a conference with limited and highly-coveted attendance. Space is limited to 200 bloggers from across the nation.  It is a faith based conference for like minded Christian Bloggers.

I’d like to present you with the opportunity to sponsor me to attend Relevant 2010. In exchange for your willingness to pay for my travel and conferences expenses, I’d like to provide your company with an integrated ad package which is worth much more than the conference costs itself and which would get your business and brand out in front of thousands of people with a directly targeted audience.  .

What The Frugal Find can offer you:

• Six month of Above-The-Fold Ad Space on my blog, The Frugal Find, http://www.TheFrugalFind.com.
• 1-2 Vlogs thanking your for your sponsorship and promoting an agreed upon product/campaign your business is focusing on
  
• A featured sponsor shout-out post sharing with my readers about your company and my personal thanks for your willingness to sponsor me to Relevant 2010.
• Up to three product giveaways of your choice before, during, or after the conference hosted on my blog with my personal stamp of approval.
• Promotion of your company or products at Relevant 2010 through wearing your logo and/or having your logo on my laptop or laptop bag.
• A mention of your company and website on my business cards which I will be handing out at Relevant 2010.
• Mentions of your company and sponsorship on both Facebook and Twitter where I have hundreds of fans.
• I can provide you with “insider information” and a detailed written report on the conference.

Sponsorship Pricing:

Premium Sponsorship: $1,300

This covers all of my trip expenses including travel expenses, car rental, hotel accommodations and conference ticket.

I am open to multiple smaller sponsorships, but would prefer to have a single main sponsor as this would best benefit your business and allow me to focus all of my attention on promoting YOU.  I am also open to reducing the sponsorship amount by removing a few of the items that I am offering you for sponsorship.

Reduced Sponsorships:

Conference Ticket – $259

Airfare – $500

Lodging, Rental Car (if needed), and Food – $500

This is a prime opportunity to get involved with the Blogging Community, which is proving to be one of the most influential social marketing methods today.  Using social media as a platform to access millions of people daily, the possibilities are endless.

If you think your product or business would be a good fit as a sponsor for The Frugal Find, email me at thefrugalfind @ gmail.com, I am looking forward to working with you!
