Tiffany Dufrene from Louisiana wrote me asking how to get sponsors for her pageant?  I suggest going to local businesses and ask if they would be interested in being an Official Sponosr for your pageant. You can offer them a full or half page ad in the program book for in exchange of gifts donated to your winners.

Try a local florist, they can sponsor the bouquet’s for the winners in exchange for being the Official Florist!

Try a favorite restaurant to host your judges luncheon for in exchange of an ad.

Try a jeweler!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try beauty salons, tanning, nails, gift shops and photographers. All these businesses would be delighted to donate something in exchange for advertisement that markets a new crowd.

As a director you should have a sponsor letter that you can type the contestants name on it and they can take it around to family and friends to help raise their entry fees for your pageant.

Go to my www.shellyspageantexpress.com and visit the sponsor page for more ideas that can advertise on your website!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Pageanting,
