Thanks for the great advice! You’ve just made my sponsor Hunt 1000 times easier, you’re super under rated! My god am i lucky you popped into my recommended section!
Thank you so much for making this video, I have been waiting so long for someone to make a video on this topic, and I'm so glad that you made this video because you definitely know what you are talking about. Thanks so much, Ryan keep up the good work, and I hope to be able to race you some day 😁
Thank you so much for this video Ryan. I wanted to make karting as a living for myself so I’ve been looking for such advice for quite sometime,I came across your advice videos a couple days ago and I found it very inspirational.Some of them really make me feel like I wish I’ve known these earlier Great work man! I really appreciate your work and I enjoyed your videos,cheers!
Thank you so much Ryan! I was so happy when I saw this video. I had been hoping you would post about this. The sponsorship thing is very unknown when your new and I had no idea where to start. This helped a lot. When you talk about asking people for sponsorship who would you typically ask or email?
Subscription added 👌 I’m looking at getting my kids into karts when they’re a bit older which will be a struggle as a single dad but obviously well worth it. This video will no doubt help me in the near future 🙂
hey Ryan thank you so much for all your videos it's very helpful, I am from Argentina & I really appreciate your words, reviews and advices! I started racing in karting two years ago but I found your channel just a months ago! I hope to meet you someday!
Yes it’s going to be. It’s almost impossible to get a sponsor for anything without any experience. You have to take some time to set up a name for yourself before you get a sponsor.
this is great advice thank you!! my current issue is that i cant actually put myself into a position where i can race without a sponsor :(( but i suppose all motorsport requires a lot of money at least to start
@@NorbergNation currently im looking to get myself started by driving in formula student i asked the team ill be joining and they said that they usually pick the fastest driver in karts out of all the existing team members so looking to prove myself there :)
@@NorbergNation I managed to join the Uni Motorsport Society to try and prove myself, and race in their championship. It's gone quite well actually haha I made a video about it, would be great to hear what you think as a youtuber yourself :) th-cam.com/video/zVjsUuquKGM/w-d-xo.html
great video!! Im just now getting into motorbike racing and it seems impossible... but I'm going to put one step in front of the other. Thanks for sharing your advice!!!
@@NorbergNation Your welcome! I'll stop by your channel and check more content... Im kinda digging in on multiple subjects... also... starting my channel in the infant stages... I into cooking... fitness.. motorcycles... life advice... Im just gonna make my channel about everything and see what sticks... Just want to help people through life with lessons from my own life... whats a good video on your channel to start getting to know what youre doing?
@@NorbergNation be easy on me... no edits... no fancy lights... just my iphone... and me.. haha.. I watched the craash video... I haave never seen carting like thata before... that looks like real world mario cart... I mean that in the most awesome way... I saw you draaft and pass a guy right before the hard right... beautiful work!!
Hi Ryan, I'm 13 and new to karting. How old were you when you started karting? I want to race and make money in the future hopefully and I'm ready to commit but I'm just worried about not having enough time. Also thank you for your videos they've helped me so much recently!
What kind of sponsors should I look for? what kind of sponsors should I focus on? (I haven’t got into racing karts yet, but I’m doing my best to get into this sport and progress as much as I can and because I don’t have a millionaire daddy, i need a great support .so I won’t end up in the barriers.) love your videos.
Honestly just build connections, you need to still prove yourself to be worthy, you should also tell the business what you offer via exposure to their company
The same tips still apply. The big note to take away is value. What value do you bring to a business that would be sponsoring you. You have to make it worth their money. Don’t think of yourself as a charity for a business but an investment.
I need a sponsor but I need it to get into pro karting not only do I live it but it’s my dream to race. Can I get a sponsor before I even get into pro karting? It’s so expensive I can’t afford it 😢😢
Yes it is but I wouldn’t suggest doing that for your first race in outdoor karts. It’s a different animal all together. Look for a smaller series around your local track just to get your feet wet first.
Hello mate, im joining Portugal nationals this year. Im 13 and dont have much money soo... i guess i could start things off by sponsoring my Asseto Corsa Competizione team :) I know its kinda dumb but as you said... Be creative
Greetings from Finland, Ryan! Been following your channel for maybe two years or so. Love your content. Check my latest video if you have the time, OK-senior class, prefinal on slick tires and it started to snow :-D Man it was lots of fun!
I love how you share the knowledge, trully nice of you:) Really interesting vids lately, keep it up. Is there any chance I can start a conversation with you on IG?
Whats a reasonable ask in terms of support? I always see what to ask for, but never how much. 100$, 1000$, how much is ok in karting or do you find then usually willing to give?
When it comes down to smaller amount of money ask for trades like have them buy a set of tires or a pale of fuel. It feels more personal than getting handed 100$. But towards your question, find out your value and get a sponsor for that. If what you can offer is only worth $100 than that’s all you’ll get. More value = bigger sponsorships
staying up late was so worth it , thank you
Thanks man!
I'm watching this at 2 I. The morning 😂

Thats kind of up to you. You need to find people who can help in your career and contact them.
Dude u are so underrated , i wish i knew this like 5 years earlier , thanks for the tips dude !
He is a good kid

would you say that in the beginning is all out of pocket money to be at front of grid and be noticed ? then ask for sponsors? great vid btw thanks !!
Yes it’s going to be. It’s almost impossible to get a sponsor for anything without any experience. You have to take some time to set up a name for yourself before you get a sponsor.
@@NorbergNation thank you ryan nobody gives this info!!! i appreciate it!!! hope my business goes great to see u at the grid ;)
Thank you
Iv got my car just about ready for the start of my racing journey to legacy.
Been driving my hole life on farm/road
I'm not into racing but I am looking for sponsorship...the biggest thing I struggle with is knowing my value.
Start small and grow from there. If you don't know your value, it might just be your ability to do work
You are the man for this one. Thanks bro!
Thanks man!
Can I sponsor that mustache? Just kidding. Smart vid. I think a lot of kids will find it helpful.
Hahaha it’ll be like the fig Newton logo on Ricky Bobby’s car
this is great advice thank you!!
my current issue is that i cant actually put myself into a position where i can race without a sponsor :(( but i suppose all motorsport requires a lot of money at least to start
Yes it does. Like I said be creative. See if there is someway you can pay someone back that isn’t monetary
@@NorbergNation currently im looking to get myself started by driving in formula student

No problem!
The most important video so far!
It’s definitely one of the more important ones!
Great info! thx

I started at 10 years old so your not far behind. I know drivers that have started later and have done really well
9 years old
Great advice
Thank you!
Great Video
Thank you!
Keep the content going!

Try and find what you need. If you need tires approach someone for tires. If it’s chassis do that as well. Just focus on accomplishing those needs
Hey there man. Cool videos really helpful. Could you pls make a video on how to start a rolling race. Pls?
Sounds good!
@@NorbergNation thanks mate really appreciate it.
What about seeking sponsorship via small companies/businesses ?
Honestly just build connections, you need to still prove yourself to be worthy, you should also tell the business what you offer via exposure to their company
The same tips still apply. The big note to take away is value. What value do you bring to a business that would be sponsoring you. You have to make it worth their money. Don’t think of yourself as a charity for a business but an investment.
What tyres do you usually use mate. I was trying Maxxis SR1 but my lord those die quickly
In the US we mainly use the MG yellow compound and they last relatively long
@Peter Stiller thanks bro for the feedback
@Peter Stiller bro you race in china?
@Peter Stiller I'm in Xi'an man i would love to know where you buy your tyres
@Peter Stiller I have to race maxxis tyres, I race tkm. Honestly they last for ages but they are terrible (especially the wets) in terms of grip
I need a sponsor but I need it to get into pro karting not only do I live it but it’s my dream to race. Can I get a sponsor before I even get into pro karting? It’s so expensive I can’t afford it 😢😢
Good Video!
Thank you!
Hey a question I’m doing indoor karting rn and I wanted to do skusa and I didn’t do local outdoor karting So is it possible to race skusa
Yes it is but I wouldn’t suggest doing that for your first race in outdoor karts. It’s a different animal all together. Look for a smaller series around your local track just to get your feet wet first.
lets start this video, ads in 3, 2 ,1 :D great way
I don’t know where the kid rolls get put so it’s funny that it happened right then hahah
You forgot start making videos, build follower base and bring more visibiility to your sponsors! :)
Yes it’s all about building value
🐐
I did a gofund but It didn't work :(
Nice video
Thank you!
I can't afford a karting
Hello mate, im joining Portugal nationals this year. Im 13 and dont have much money soo... i guess i could start things off by sponsoring my Asseto Corsa Competizione team :)
I know its kinda dumb but as you said... Be creative
That’s creative forsure. You need to make sure the person your asking can help, unfortunately I don’t have the capabilities but good idea
@@NorbergNation as Han said "50% percent of something is better than 100% of nothing"

I've been winning will you sponsor me
Wrong person to ask hahaha. I’m still working on supporting myself
first
