OUTSTANDING!

Outstanding! This is a fantastic book and a must have for any in the Sponsorship or Marketing Business arena. While it says it's directed at Motorsports, the basics lessons in this book apply to all sports teams. It's very comprehensive, and very detailed. Alex takes readers through the differences in Advertising, Marketing, and Branding, he explains in detail how to value a team, ROI, Decks, Proposals and Proof of Performance, and much much, more. My maim reason for writing this review is for all the younger audience out there getting into racing. Please buy this book, ask your folks to get it for a birthday or Christmas present, whatever you have to, and learn how to do sponsorship the correct way. This is the best book I have come across so far and it's really good. I've spent over $50 bucks on a sports marketing recently and it was so shallow, it covered many topics, but nothing in detail. This book not only gives you granular detail, you even get insight from Race team's Commercial Director's, Racers, and more importantly, Sponsors like Monster Energy, Lucas Oil, and others. Definitely, definitely, worth the money, highly recommended.

THE BIBLE OF MOTOR SPORTS FUNDRAISING

It's a serious book so don't expect fluff treat it like a college text book and get the knowledge to get out there and rock n roll!

It's amazing!!!! I loved XPlay Nation as well but this one is just what I needed, nicely laid out, and quite smart. It hit all the points I needed for my work in marketing and more. Highly recommend for anyone into racing or action sports of any kind since much of the info applies across sports.
