We have just put together a marketing program and we are in the process of not only fixing up the credit of some big name MMA fighters, but we are also going to sponsor them and get our website on their shorts, and banners. You can get your name in front of hundreds of thousands of people for much less then you would imagine.
If any of you would like to get some huge exposure, let me know. These warriors could use all the support they can get, and you can get some amazing promotion. From the small shows to the UFC you will be surprised as to how much bang you can get for your marketing buck. |

I know it's coincidence.....and something you didn't even notice.
MMA also = Money Merge Account
UFC also could = Union First
Happy to hear we're just talking about putting your name on some guys boxers. |

Right next to Condom Depot? I think Leben had them as a sponsor. j/k
Tito had a mortgage co. sponsor him early in his career as well.
Sounds like a good plan and a great demographic to target: 18-39 males. |

| I'm in the process of sponsoring Dan Barrera of the UFC, he fights out of Ft Knox and right now is still cheap!...They definitely need the money, if you want to really do something kewl, find the local MMA school and sponsor them...Once they found out the money we could throw at them, they referred us to Barerra who really needs the sponsorship now... |

| Sure hope you can get them in a loan. I'd hate to see them come after their mortgage broker. |

Most aren't real bright, just blame it on the appraiser! |

joe berroni used to be sponsored by tkodebt.com. joe riggs was also sponsored by a mortgage company.
i think id rather have my logo on the mat, or on the corner posts then on a fighter. |

>>>>i think id rather have my logo on the mat, or on the corner posts then on a fighter.
Just add a couple zeros to the checks we'll end up writing and you can get your name on those!
The local fight centers will let you hang a banner during the fights for a small fee, if you're looking for local business...Once you look, you may be surprised how many local events there are, even in KY they are weekly, sometimes 2 or 3 events on a weekend... |

| Credit repair makes more sense than mortgages: most UFC payouts are rather low for low-to-midcard guys(like as low as 5k to show and 5k to win), and even lower all small shows(and they have to sell x number of tickets usually). These guys really struggle to live out their dream. |

there is a night club about 15 minutes from my house that does fights monthly. pretty cool scene to check out. we have a ton of mma up here around boston.
i just really wonder what the return is on sponsoring a fighter. i would do it more cause i love mma or the fighter and how much i want to support them, then to advertise. |

I saw on a recent Tapout when Matt Serra dissed them because THEY can't even pay him enough...I think those guys are an embarrassment to MMA, Punkass seems to have the most sense, the other 2 are total clowns in my book...
And Duck, you have the right idea, if you love the sport and just want to back it, talk to a fighter, if you want to advertise, talk to a promoter...However, I'd hate to pay big bucks to be on a fighter and his fight lasts 39 seconds... |

the 39 second fight, or the devastating loss is also in the equation for why i wouldnt wanna sponsor a fighter. corner posts and on the mat dont go away.
has anyone priced up a mat or post ad? |
