Can you sponsor me a lift?
As much as we would love to sponsor every driver that calls us looking for a sponsorship it cannot happen. In order for us to sponsor a lift it has to make good business sense with a very high possibility of high exposure and a return. As a company we have to make money to keep the doors open & continue to do what we love. We review EVERY sponsorship packet that is sent to us and make decisions solely based on ROI as well as exposure. It is nothing personal by any means if we do not give you a sponsorship opportunity, its business.
