We’re Not Looking for Sponsored Players. We’re Looking for Partners.
Cornhole Addicts is growing again, and we’re looking for the right people to grow with us.
In the past, we sponsored players.
But we don’t want to build another sponsorship program where we give someone some gear, put our logo on a jersey, get a couple social media posts, and call it a relationship.
We want something different.
We want partners.
People who genuinely love cornhole. People who talk to other players. People who create. People who get involved. People who support the community. And most importantly, good people we want representing the Cornhole Addicts name.
You don’t have to be a professional player.
You don’t need a 9+ PPR.
You don’t need thousands of followers.
We care a whole lot more about who you are than how good you are.
WHAT DOES “PARTNER” MEAN?
It’s pretty simple:
You work hard for Cornhole Addicts, and we’ll work hard for you.
We don’t want a one-sided relationship.
If you’re creating content, talking about Cornhole Addicts, helping us grow, supporting our projects, introducing people to our products, engaging with our community, and finding ways to contribute…
We’re going to look for ways to help you too.
That could mean promoting your content, sharing your tournament results, helping promote your events, featuring you on our social channels, giving you access to special discounts and rewards, providing product opportunities, helping grow your audience, and creating new opportunities together.
The more you put into Cornhole Addicts, the more Cornhole Addicts will put into you.
That’s what we mean by partnership.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We’re looking for Cornhole Addicts.
Not necessarily champions.
Not necessarily pros.
Not necessarily influencers.
We’re looking for people who:
- Love the game.
- Are good people.
- Enjoy talking to other players.
- Are active in their local cornhole community.
- Create or are willing to create content.
- Aren’t afraid to take pictures or shoot a quick video.
- Engage with people online and in person.
- Support other players.
- Help newer players.
- Have ideas.
- Take initiative.
- Want to help build something.
Maybe you play five nights a week.
Maybe you run tournaments.
Maybe you’re the person who knows everyone at your local blind draw.
Maybe you make hilarious cornhole videos.
Maybe you love reviewing bags.
Maybe you’re constantly helping newer players.
Maybe you’re a tournament director, content creator, league organizer, backyard player, or someone who simply can’t stop talking about cornhole.
There are a lot of ways to bring value to this partnership.
WHAT WE DON’T CARE ABOUT
Your PPR isn’t the first thing we’re going to ask about.
Neither is how many tournaments you’ve won.
And having 10,000 followers doesn’t automatically make you a better partner than someone with 300.
We’re looking at the entire person.
Character.
Personality.
Communication.
Creativity.
Effort.
Community involvement.
Consistency.
Those things matter to us.
WHAT CAN YOU DO AS A PARTNER?
Every partner doesn’t have to contribute the same way.
Play to your strengths.
Create videos.
Take tournament pictures.
Review products.
Share Cornhole Addicts content.
Start conversations.
Send us content we can use.
Help promote The Cornhole Fix.
Represent Cornhole Addicts at tournaments.
Introduce players to products you love.
Help us test new products.
Share ideas.
Promote local events.
Help beginners.
Make people laugh.
Help us grow the Cornhole Addicts community.
Find your way to contribute.
We don’t want to constantly tell partners what they have to do.
We want people who see an opportunity and think:
“I could do something with that.”
WHAT DO YOU GET?
This isn’t a program built around promising everyone hundreds of dollars in free products.
What you receive should grow with what you contribute.
Partner opportunities can include:
- Partner discount code to share
- Referral rewards and store credit
- Discount pricing on YOUR purchases
- Early access to products
- Product testing opportunities
- Partner-only promotions and giveaways
- Social media features
- Tournament and podium recognition
- Promotion of your content
- Help promoting your tournaments or events
- Exclusive Cornhole Addicts gear
- Product opportunities
- Input on future products and projects
- Special collaborations
- Additional opportunities for our most active partners
And as the relationship grows, so can the opportunities.
YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE THE BEST PLAYER.
We can’t emphasize this enough.
If you’re an incredible player, that’s awesome.
But we’d rather partner with someone who throws a 7 PPR and represents Cornhole Addicts with passion than someone who throws a 10 and never talks about us.
Being a great player doesn’t automatically make someone a great partner.
Being a great person might.
THIS ISN’T FREE GEAR FOR A LOGO.
If you’re looking for a company to send you a bunch of free stuff because you’ll put their logo on your jersey, this probably isn’t the right program for you.
And that’s okay.
There are traditional sponsorship programs that may be a better fit.
That’s not what we’re building.
We’re trying to build relationships with people who want to become part of Cornhole Addicts and help us build something together.
YOUR EFFORT MATTERS.
We believe the people doing the most to help Cornhole Addicts should receive the most support from Cornhole Addicts.
That’s why opportunities and benefits will grow based on participation.
Someone consistently creating content, generating conversations, helping the community, referring customers, sharing ideas, and representing the brand should receive more opportunities than someone who isn’t participating.
Pretty simple.
You work hard for us.
We’ll work hard for you.
THINK YOU’RE OUR KIND OF ADDICT?
Then we want to hear from you.
Don’t worry about whether you’re “good enough.”
Don’t worry about your PPR.
Don’t worry about how many followers you have.
Tell us who you are.
Tell us why you love cornhole.
Tell us how you’re involved in the community.
Tell us what you’re good at.
Tell us what kind of content you enjoy creating.
And most importantly…
Tell us what you think you could bring to Cornhole Addicts.
We’re not building a team of sponsored players.
We’re building a family of partners.
