We would love to be able to help each and every rider in need
of sponsorship, but that is simply not possible. We have established
a set of criteria to help you determine if you qualify for a
Price Point sponsorship.
If you
meet these criteria and would like to apply, please follow
the instructions below to be considered for our program. Please
remember that you are not guaranteed sponsorship if meet the
general criteria - this is an application process, and you
will be contacted only if you are selected. Please do not
call to follow up on your application/race resume. We have
limited space on our sponsorship roster and limited resources
to share, and if we do not currently have an available slot
for you or your team, we will keep your information on file
and may contact you at a later date.
Price Point does not offer cash sponsorships
- product sponsorships only.
• You must be a rider who regularly
participates in races or charity rides.
• You must be willing to promote Price Point by distributing
catalogs and stickers at cycling events.
• You must keep in contact with us, letting us know
what events you/your team are participating in, and sending
us a note or e-mail with any significant race results.
• If you or your team have a cycling-related website,
we ask that you place a link to www.pricepoint.com,
preferably with our logo, on the site.
• If you have great team photos or race photos featuring
Price Point gear, we ask that you share them with Price Point,
and that you allow us to feature them on our website at our
discretion.
• You must be at least 16 years of age, and have permission
from your parent or legal guardian to race if you are under
18.
• You must live and race in the United States.
You may be disqualified from the sponsorship
program if you:
• Call or contact us repeatedly with
sponsorship requests or questions.
• Mis-represent Price Point in any way.
• Make unreasonable demands.
How To Apply:
Send an up-to-date race-resume, including
events in which you have participated, dates, locations, category
and placing(if applicable), to sponsorship@pricepoint.com.
Please do not just send a link to your page on bikeresults.com
- make the effort of at least cutting and pasting this information
into a document or e-mail so it is readily accessible. Your
resume can be a separate Microsoft Word attachment or it can
be included in the body of your e-mail.
If you are representing a team, please send
a complete team roster with rider categories/cycling disciplines
and other pertinent information to the same e-mail address
as above.
Let us know why we should consider you as
unique among the many other racers who contact us regarding
sponsorship opportunities. What will you do to spread the
word about Price Point? And what will you expect from us in
return? Remember, the more you can do to help us spread the
word about Price Point, the more likely it is that we will
be able to help you with a product sponsorship.
Be aware that we are less concerned about
your race results than we are about what kind of a representative
you will be for Price Point. We would prefer to sponsor a
consistent mid-pack finisher who is enthusiastic and positive
about promoting Price Point's catalog and website, and is
a good ambassador for the sport, than a sand-bagger who is
always on the podium, but whose behavior is negative and unsportsmanlike.
