Become a Sponsoo Expert
Become your own boss!
As a Sponsoo Expert (m/f) you are your own boss. You decide when, where and how much you want to work and earn money based on your success when you sell a sponsorship. You are maximally flexible, can work full-time or part-time, as a main or secondary occupation, from home, from on the road, from the beach...
If you achieve good results, you can earn so much money; and if not, there is no one to pressure you. Why should you - after all, you are your own boss!
How does it work?
As a Sponsoo-Expert it is your job to sell sponsorships. You do not receive a basic salary, but a commission for each sold sponsorship. The amount of the commission is based on your level: You start as "Associate Sponsoo Expert" and can work your way up to "Executive Sponsoo Expert".
Depending on your level, you will receive up to 50% of our contribution margin per sponsorship when you acquire the sponsor. The contribution margin is the amount that remains with us after the athlete/club is paid out. Usually, our contribution margin is 20%. This means that if you sell a 10.000 Euro sponsorship, 8.000 Euro will go to the athlete or club and 2.000 Euro will be distributed between you and us. The distribution is done according to the following pattern:
| Level | Your Share | |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | Executive Sponsoo Expert | 50,0% |
| 3 | Senior Sponsoo Expert | 50,0% |
| 2 | Sponsoo Expert | 40,0% |
| 1 | Associate Sponsoo Expert | 30,0% |
If you just make an introduction, but don't have time to follow up through the entire sales process, you will still receive a commission of 20% (of our contribution margin) if we close the deal with your sponsor.
The commissions listed above refer to you acquiring the sponsor. If you acquire the rights holder, e.g. an athlete or club, instead, you will receive a commission of 20% of our contribution margin for all the sponsorships that we sell within two years of the registration of "your" rights holder on Sponsoo. As a result, if you're at least level 3 and acquire both the sponsor and the rights holder, you can get up to 70% of our contribution margin as commission.
Billing is always at the end of the month. You are a self-employed entrepreneur and simply send us an invoice, which we pay after receipt of payment from the sponsor.
What Expert levels are there?
You will advance internally if you meet the following conditions:
| Level | Conditions | |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | Executive Sponsoo Expert | ☑ Sell at least 50 sponsorships ☑ Sell sponsorships to at least 10 different customers ☑ Sell sponsorships with a total value of more than 150,000 euros ☑ Recruit at least 3 additional Sponsoo Experts |
| 3 | Senior Sponsoo Expert | ☑ Sell at least 10 sponsorships ☑ Sell sponsorships to at least 3 different customers ☑ Sell sponsorships with a total value of more than 25,000 euros |
| 2 | Sponsoo Expert | ☑ Sell at least 1 sponsorship ☑ Sell sponsorships with a total value of more than 1000 Euro |
| 1 | Associate Sponsoo Expert | ☑ Convince us with your application |
The higher you advance in the level, the higher quality sponsorship rights you can sell and the bigger the customers you can serve. As an Associate Sponsoo Expert, you focus more on small, local clubs or on amateur athletes and small influencers. Your target customers are start-ups or smaller companies, such as the "baker next door". At the highest level, you can also look after international brands such as BMW or Microsoft and sell sponsorships up to the Bundesliga, the Premier League and other major leagues.
How is Sponsoo helping me?
We provide you with sales materials and give you access to our #sponsoo_experts Slack Channel, where you can interact with our team and other Sponsoo Experts. Furthermore, our system helps you to book the sponsorships - and of course, provides you with a huge portfolio of athletes and clubs you can sell sponsorships for.
Can I manage my own expert team?
Do you enjoy being a Sponsoo Expert so much that you would like to convince others to do the same? Great, please go ahead! The best thing is: As soon as you reach the "Sponsoo Expert" level, you will even earn money on the contribution margins of the experts you have recruited. As a Senior and Executive Expert, it even goes one step further: When "your" experts recruit a new expert, you even get a share of their contribution margins.
| Level | CM Participation Level 1 | CM Participation Level 2 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | Executive Sponsoo Expert |
5% |
2% |
| 3 | Senior Sponsoo Expert | 4% | 1% |
| 2 | Sponsoo Expert | 3% | - |
| 1 | Associate Sponsoo Expert | - | - |
CM participation level 1: Participation in the contribution margin of the experts you have recruited
CM participation level 2: Participation in the contribution margin of experts recruited by "your" experts.
Example: You are "Executive Sponsoo Expert". You have recruited Claudia as an expert who makes 15,000 Euros in sales this month and thus achieves a contribution margin of 3,000 Euros. Claudia has recruited Moritz, who has a turnover of 5,000 Euros and thus achieves a contribution margin of 1,000 Euros. In addition to your own earnings, you will receive 5% of the contribution margin generated by Claudia (i.e. 150 Euro) and 2% of Moritz's contribution margin (i.e. 20 Euro). So you will receive 170 Euro additionally without having to do anything this month. This "passive income" gives you maximum independence.
What are Sponsoo's goals with the expert program?
Our most important concern is to help athletes and clubs. The more helpers we win for this mission, the more successful we are. We are constantly receiving requests from people who want to help us part-time and have created the Sponsoo Expert Program for this purpose. The backgrounds of these people are extremely diverse - from students to housewives to pensioners who have been running a sponsoring agency for many years.
With our program, we also want to consciously distinguish ourselves from other so-called multi-level marketing systems, where wealth is promised more quickly and the main goal is to sell bad products, recruit other sellers and sell them expensive "starter packages". Becoming a Sponsoo Expert is free of charge. The only thing you need to bring along is diligence, enthusiasm for sports and a certain sales talent. Sponsoo experts also do not sell overpriced insurance or ineffective nutritional supplements, but exciting sports sponsorships. Most of the sales proceeds do not go into the pockets of a large international corporation, but go to athletes and clubs that depend on these revenues.
Can I benefit from the Sponsoo Expert Program as a club, association or sports event?
As a club, association or sports event, you can inspire your fans and members to become a Sponsoo-Expert and (especially in the beginning) focus on selling your sponsorships. This way you can "multiply" your own sales activities and create your own crowd of enthusiastic salespeople at no cost to yourself. For you, the management of your expert crowd does not require any effort on your part: Sponsoo takes over the complete management of the exprts and the acquired sponsors.
