Looking for sponsors for a beauty pageant. What are the best types of businesses to ask?

go to locally owned stores and business's (big chain stores like McDonald's will not help.) Dress nice and walk into the store (like salons, little flower shops, dry cleaners, tanning salons) shake their hand and Say something like...





Hello my name is ____ i am planning to participate in the ______ pageant this summer, where i would be given the opportunity to represent our state of (your state). There is an entry fee to particate as a potential sponsor i am asking you if you would be willing to help me with the funds needed to participate. As a sponsor your business would receive advertisement for being in our pageant program book, and your donation is tax deductible.





Then say thank you remember to smile when asking even if they say no. Remember to ask to talk to their owners not just any employee! You can have multiple sponsors not just one so don't tell someone that they might have too pay all of that money maybe they could pay half or how ever much they want will help. If you have any brochures to show them that is also good to do so they know it isn't a scam.





Good luck and have fun!
