Ok Im gonna vent here. I have people that Im friends with on Sponsorhouse or that have added me on Sponsorhouse. I think its a BUNCH OF CRAP that people are posting results on there profile when they weren't even at that race or series. Or make up tracks and results when none of it even exist! People like you ruin it for us that bust our BUTTS all the time with legit results and honesty. Your the reason we don't get the SUPPORT that we should be.

Sponsor House and the like are not about Supporting Racers, it's about being able to sell direct without breaking dealer agreements.

I think what Jay's trying to say is, a lot of companies look at Sponsorhouse as a profit center. Selling someone a product at 30% off directly, is more profitable than selling it a distributor at wholesale prices.

Getting a small percentage deal on products? The shop or manufacturer likes your money.

Getting stuff at very low cost or free? They're impressed with your results.

Getting paid to use products? You move the needle in sales enough that it's worth it.

I don;t take nothing off of Sponsorhouse unless its better then Dealer cost. My dealer gives me the hook up on bikes. What I was trying to say is there are people lying about there results and profiles saying that there Rocky Stewart ot Joe Blow. Then there are us that are busting ass to represent are results and are Sponsors and put in the good honest results. The wannabes are ruining it for us that really want deals or deserve 60-70% off deals or free product.

If you're looking for sponsors, Sponsorhouse is not the way to go.

Hahahaha. Sorry dude, but if you think you deserve 60-70% off, then you sure as hell don't need to be on sponsorhouse. If you want to appeal "professionally" to sponsors, then you need to put some time into a resume and actually mail it to sponsors with a hand written letter in it. Am I not right?

I agree. Maybe he will get a Red Bull hat. Deserve? Funny how many riders these days think they "deserve" discounted or free shit.

I think the point is , Sponsorhouse does nothing to check and see if anyone's results or profiles are even legit.

I feel your pain........We pulled out of Sponsorhouse after only 2 months......you can receive the same support from us threw MXResultz.com as we give to resumes emailed and mailed directly to us. I read and google most names and races.


The joke is most kids only want free decals anyway.

I think Neysbo can vouch for how fast Iam......(MXR176 from thumpertalk) N age is only a number, if I remember right a 44 year old man was on the podium at Southwick. I send out resumes on a regular basis when its that time of the year. I have had numerous companies email me and tell me how professional my resume is laid out and looks. I have also got emails from some Sponsors that staight they only do stuffthrough Sponsorhouse, Mx Sponsor or Mx Results.com. I also put in my resumes every track website or district website to verify that I'am a legit person and I don't talk shit about my results.
