Without the support of people and organizations like YOU, most U.S. Olympic Hopefuls would be unable to realize their full potential because of the lack of government funding for American athletes and the inordinate amount of money needed to train and compete at the highest level.

Sponsorship Proposal
What’s the difference between me and most accomplished athletes? I am not only a nationally ranked judo athlete; I am also a full-time professional with over 6 years of Sales and Marketing experience. I am looking for companies to partner with, which share the same ideals and beliefs as myself, in order to utilize my passions—sports, health & wellness, along with marketing.
My Story:
Let me give you the short version—a little over 4 years ago I first learned about the sport of judo. I’m competitive, I loved the sport, and I excelled at it. After just 7 months of training recreationally, I packed up my belongings, left my position with a Fortune 500 Company, and moved to New York to train at the world-renown judo training facility, The Jason Morris Judo Center. Fast forward 4 years, and here I am:

Benefits of sponsoring An Athlete
Olympic athlete sponsorship has developed beyond philanthropy, and is now a viable outlet for reaching business objectives. Sponsoring an Olympic Hopeful is an invaluable asset. According to a study done by Lieberman Research Worldwide, compared to all other major sport properties, Olympic fans report more brand loyalty to Olympic sponsors than fans of other competitive sport properties. In fact, Olympic fans are nearly twice as likely to use a brand after becoming aware that it is a sponsor of the U.S. Olympic Team. Additionally, Olympic athlete sponsorship is the fastest growing form of advertising, because it offers a unique medium to reach consumers, contribute to corporate culture, and to enhance goodwill. For most companies the primary focus of a sponsorship is return on investment; whether the goal is to drive sales, create greater brand awareness, improve brand image, or boost employee morale, partnering with an athlete can help achieve those objectives.
