Looking For A Sponsor to Help Fund My Trip to SXSW

That’s right I’m looking for a sponsor or sponsors. Why, do you ask? Well I’m heading down to Austin, TX on my own dime because my current employer (a fortune 500 company) is to cheap to send me to industry related events for my field of expertise — web design and development. I even have to take personal vacation time to attend. Hugh bummer huh?

Anyway, I will entertain just about any idea, within reason of course. I will not do nudity, of any kind, such as streaking, I will not do any violent, hurtful, dishonest, illegal, or malicious acts to myself, others, or property. However, I will, for example, wear your logo t-shirt and/or ball-cap, pass out your business cards and/or other marketing materials, give out “swag” (i.e., your promotional merchandise — but only those that I can carry in the small pouch of my backpack) and/or collect business cards from other merchants and attendees. I’ll even take pictures with my iphone for proof.

In exchange I ask that you or your company to pay for my services (e.g., $100/day to wear your t-shirt and pass out business cards or more for the more elaborate tasks).

This is a great opportunity if your target market is or might be attending the Interactive portion of SXSW.

Leave a commit if you’re interested.
