Securing sponsor relationships shouldn't feel like you're alone in the woods...after 10+ years wandering and getting stuck in the weeds, I created a trail map 🗺️
It’s been a crazy wild ride, going from scraping together funding for events and projects and making it through on a wish and a prayer (and some strategic trades).
...to launching 🚀 BRAND NEW initiatives with costs covered and (gasp!) a budget to work with.
It was UNREAL.
⏩ Fast forward to today and I’ve now helped clients go from zero to profitable on new project launches:
💰 $0-$30k: Inaugural Conference on funding and Venture Capital
💰 $0-$50k: Brand New Virtual Conference on the pivots in trends in foodservice and foodservice equipment industry while “the world was all inside”
💰 $0-$110k: Women's Empowerment Summit about overcoming fear in the pursuit of greatness
💰 $0 - $100k+ annually, & counting 🤑: Non-profit Tech community with over 14K members looking to add sponsorship as a consistent and meaningful revenue stream.
Let's face it the impact we can create is directly tied to the resources and the 💰💰💰 money we have access to it's time to get your sponsorship money locked in to support YOU and your(insert event/project/podcast/community here).

I built this system for myself. I was sick of running into the same trenches and needed a way to create consistency in sponsor support for my projects and clients.
And, now I've packaged it up as a course to #spreadknowledge and share with you!
About the #ScrappytoSavvy system
Scrappy to Savvy is a system, a school of thought and a methodology that can be applied across various areas of your business (and life)!
It's my mantra, and I'm sharing it with you as it's helped get me through various situations over the years and – it's proven to help others too!
It fuels the systems I've created.
It's a way to frame your mindset. A way to understand where you are, where you want to go, and what each situation calls for.
There's a time and a place for both. But it's important to make it an intentional choice:
When we're rolling up our sleeves (scrappy), and when we're moving through with ease (savvy).
Excited to have you join me on this journey 🎉
