It's a huge help. I would have spent so much money on hair/makeup products for Miss USA if it weren't for people sponsoring those small but pricey items.
Great ideas! My daughter Miss Mount Rushmore USA Ambassador Jr Teen and Mrs. South Dakota USA Ambassador are having a garage sale next weekend and we have asked for donations to sell to raise funds for Nationals. We have had a great response from our community. It is some work, but we feel we will raise a decent amount of money. It's amazing what nice stuff people will donate to you as they declutter their house 😁
I am working on new content related to that. I have a new episode coming out soon about becoming an influencer. I also created an Insta-growth guide on my website to do this. I break down exactly what I've done to grow my audience and build engagement on Instagram. www.daniwalkerofficial.com/product-page/insta-growth-guide
So cool Dani! Sophia and I both watching tonight. We love the Amazon wishlist idea! And the parent raffle! Our paint store sponsor offered their parking lot to do a car wash, we can incorporate those ideas into it as well! She’s writing her Amazon wish list now❤️💋👌🏻
I been brain storming on how to get to my next pageant N this is an answer to my prayers U just give me a great idea Since I’m a hairstylist I’m going to raffle a hair makeover Thank you Dani💕 Wish me luck I’m going to MRI👑
Very good timing for me too since I need some sponsorships! Though I'm unsure if my influence is as grand as yours Dani. I dont have many followers yet, just over 100 for my modeling Instagram. And I'm not 100% sure what I can even offer. I dis just graduate in art but I'm still brainstorming how to use fine arts/animation in a sponsorship sense.
Hi Dani, my daughter just participate in a state pageant it was her very first pageant experience ever and she love it 😍 she also won the miss photogenic award we been watching your videos and it’s been very helpful thank you ! She’s already looking forward to come back next year 😊
So Cool!! Live for these videos!!! 💖💖 Anyone who gives this video a thumbs down us holding their phone upside down and was actually trying to give it a like!!
I love these ideas how cool! I've maybe only used one or two of them I really like the idea in particular about raffling off skill or talent that you or your family might have, oh the bbq party🌭🍔🥗 that's brilliant💡
Another good video! I coached a young lady once for Miss NY USA and getting sponsorship was an extremely difficult process. However, we got her dress sponsored and custom made and we raised the entire amount. ...... I know this so totally unrelated But What are your thoughts on the Miss World system?
@@DaniWalker We didn't know we had to pay the entire sponsorship fee...and I messaged you on Twitter and you were like if she doesn't...she won't compete. We had to get really creative real quick!
Can you tell me if I want to get a sponsorship from a hotel do I email them firsthand I want to visit them. Or can I email to different places for sponsorships?
I was running now I can't no one wants to sponsor me 😭 I been bullied all my life and I want to do this so I can be a role model to people who were bullied and also domestic volince survivor. I just wish I could do it but no one wants to sponsor me but thanks 😊
Sheree Love As Dani mentioned, do not give up!! You deserve a pat on the back for wanting to join a pageant!! Wishing you good luck and hopefully you find someone to sponsor you!! Be creative;) Do your parents have a skill they can share with your peers? Example: my mom is a seamstress and is talented at mending and sewing and hemming dresses/pants/etc
I'm confused about something: why exactly do Sponsorship Fees exist? I'm used to MAO 2.0 format but when browsing other pageant systems, I get confused by this. I find myself finding out from past contestants directly that they didn't pay anything for entry fee but before, I found on the website that a big entry fee is required to join.....:leaves me more confused
Nothing is free and directors are usually average people who couldn't afford to finance a pageant and prize package. Just like with any live event, ticket entires or sponsors cover the cost of a venue, prizes, production staff, lighting, sound, etc. Miss America is a non-profit. They don't have elaborate prize packages. The scholarship money comes from local sponsors, people's choice voting, ticket sales, etc. MAO typically had contestants raise a few hundred dollars that was donated to the Children's Miracle Network, their charity sponsor. That money was required in order for a contestant to compete.
I didn’t even think of getting sponsorship from a hotel. However, my child is doing pageants and we don’t have a following. What else do I have to offer? Are all donations to someone’s pageant tax-deductible?
@@DaniWalker what you said made a lot of sense....I have not gotten any sponsorship from small or mom and pop businesses. Everyone says go to local first, but they do not have the budget to sponsor.
We need a “how to get sponsors during a pandemic” video
This video honestly deserves more views. I remember watching this when it first came out! It's been so helpful to me! ❤❤
Thank you so much! Commenting helps the video reach more people as well as sharing it, or any others on the channel
My daughter is in a pageant and I’m busy researching to help her out as team mom. This was very useful information
Glad it was helpful!
These are genius even for obtaining non pageant related sponsorships!
Very true :D
This is amazing because I have been getting discouraged because the entire process is a struggle! Dani you are truly an angel!!
💕💕💕 so happy it helps!
So many great ideas!!! The Amazon list...that is smart and I never would have thought of that!
That Amazon list will cover so many expenses, it's incredible. It's probably my favorite kind of sponsorship.
Dani! I am competing for this Miss Maine crown this year and was JUST brainstorming how to get sponsorships. Great timing!
Good luck! I hope this really helps!
I never even thought about sending friends and family an Amazon wish list!! Great idea!!
It's a huge help. I would have spent so much money on hair/makeup products for Miss USA if it weren't for people sponsoring those small but pricey items.
You’re blowing my mind. How did I stumble open you. This is brilliant! You got my subscription ! I’m sticking by u til competition day.
Competing for NAM Miss Florida Teen in July so binge watching all your videos to make sure I’m prepared lolol

Can you do a video on ways to grow our social media profiles so that we have good size numbers/traffic to offer potential sponsors? Pretty please?

When do we look for a sponsorship after being selected from the auditions or before

@@DaniWalker yes it is getting to become pricey

You're very welcome!
I love these ideas how cool! I've maybe only used one or two of them I really like the idea in particular about raffling off skill or talent that you or your family might have, oh the bbq party🌭🍔🥗 that's brilliant💡
I've heard of several girls who've done that to cover sponsorship and all pageant costs. Pretty amazing.
@@DaniWalker yes ma'am it is 🙂

Hi Dani walker.please make one video what is the meaning of sponsors
Sponsors are essentially people or businesses, who donate money, products or service to support someone else.
@@DaniWalker does getting sponsors save our money
Wow, so cool
Thank you!
@@DaniWalker can I please have the pageant proposal u said u wrote
Another good video!
I coached a young lady once for Miss NY USA and getting sponsorship was an extremely difficult process.
However, we got her dress sponsored and custom made and we raised the entire amount.
......
I know this so totally unrelated
But
What are your thoughts on the Miss World system?
Sponsorship is difficult. I've yet to see a full show. I need to watch first :)
@@DaniWalker That will be difficult...Since Julia been in control it's quite....Blah.
Very much a "cooking show" if you ask me😉🤣🤣😉
@@DaniWalker We didn't know we had to pay the entire sponsorship fee...and I messaged you on Twitter and you were like if she doesn't...she won't compete. We had to get really creative real quick!
@@wadew4091 Oh gosh, I can't remember saying that, but it's true. Pageants won't let you walk on stage without that sponsor fee paid.
@@wadew4091 Ohhh okay, now I need to see.
Can you tell me if I want to get a sponsorship from a hotel do I email them firsthand I want to visit them. Or can I email to different places for sponsorships?
can you do a video on how to deal with haters or not winning? 😊
I do have an episode about failure. It's in my Pageant prep playlist :)
I am competing in the Miss Dover Delaware For America Strong Pageant
I was running now I can't no one wants to sponsor me 😭 I been bullied all my life and I want to do this so I can be a role model to people who were bullied and also domestic volince survivor. I just wish I could do it but no one wants to sponsor me but thanks 😊
Don't give up. Getting sponsors isn't always easy but it's possible.
@@DaniWalker I just wish I could have something going for me once in my life
Sheree Love As Dani mentioned, do not give up!! You deserve a pat on the back for wanting to join a pageant!! Wishing you good luck and hopefully you find someone to sponsor you!!

Are all pageants tax deductible I’m competing in USA national miss
Businesses can write off sponsorships for contestants as an advertisement cost.
it won't let me open the letter in your link ahhhhh
Shoot me an email at info@daniwalkerofficial.com 💕
@@DaniWalker i did but i didn't get a reply :(
I need your help please, i am competing next month and looking for sponsors.
I didn’t even think of getting sponsorship from a hotel. However, my child is doing pageants and we don’t have a following. What else do I have to offer? Are all donations to someone’s pageant tax-deductible?
Businesses can deduct sponsorship fees as an advertising expense :D
What if i had a local church be my sponsor?
If they're willing to do that, it's fine.
SO COOL! ANTSO NTL PRETEEN says thanks as she goes on the road:)

Tina Green yes so true. I think mom and pop places work best if you already have a relationship with them.
@@DaniWalker Exactly!
