Get better deals.there is some good deals out with out a sponser..but he shouldn't flame his only shop close to him.they need make living.now if you want help get loud n compete this is the place. It's not about the op having kicker. The way he came in like he is a boss. So his local shop wants to make money. Don't we all? Their prices will be higher due to overhead and he is asking about getting a sponsor. Get better deals .There are some good deals out there without a sponsor, but he shouldn't flame his only shop close to him. They need to make a living. Now if you want help to get loud and compete this is the place. fixed that for you... Owner of BigAss Ports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwn4BassAlan Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 I was going to post what I thought was going to be funny by putting up one of those "Sponsor an African Child in Need" videos from youtube, but after half way into the video I felt like an asshole and signed up for a year.... So to answer your question seriously I think total dedication to the hobby is the key for this really, you need to constantly be improving and trying new things. I thought about trying to be sponsored but I know I wouldn't be able to give enough time while I'm in school, especially when I start graduate school, I don't even plan on having a car with me, let alone working on my system and driving out to competitions during the school-year. If you think you can manage the time, and are willing to learn, I say go for it...

Everytime I see a guy driving a mini cooper I cant help but think he loves cock & (2/29/16)-My wife just bitched at me about throwing out things we don't really use. My response of well we don't really use your vagina so should we throw that out was evidently not the right response. I had to leave the room. I missed Alan. RIP 5/29/15 - I love you son.

alaskanzx5 Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 op, in what way was I rude to you? I simply said that if you want a sponsor you have to have a one of a kind car. That means it can be any car but would have to unique. A too notch build that has a cool factor to it that will attract everybody attention at a show. You go and talk a bunch of mess about my focus. An attitude like that won't help you any. More advice, helping out local shops can pay off. I've gone to the same shop for 4 years and I just about have a partial sponsorship from them. I just moved 2000 miles from that shop and they will still give me a killer deal on anything they carry and cover shipping it to me. I got that from representing them and supporting them as a local business. Went to every comp in that state and would drag 3 to 4 people with me plus the the car audio guys I knew. It's called dedication and representing. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

AMI CUSTOMS Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 I am sponsored by two companies, look thru my build log (link in my sig) and you can see real quick which two. You have to be able to sell yourself to the company. Also if they want you they will ask you. I didn't have to do anything didn't even have to ask to be sponsored, they asked me. Attend a shit load of shows and win. SPEND a shit load of money on their equipment before they will consider you. NOTHING IS EVER FREE. That is all I have lol.

k3n12ock Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 As many stated, you have to get out there and prove your worth. AMI said it best. You never get anything FREE, discounts (team pricing) and jump the line for new stuff are a few things you get though. Also, people (in general) think just because you run a product that you're automatically on the team. Trust me, I see people every day with certain brands who will rep TEAM "insert brand" when all they have is a pair of their 12s. It's like dude, just cuz you bought 2 subs from them does not mean you are on their "TEAM". you talked about wal mart sellin kicker like it was a bad thing..amazon is like the wal mart of the internet and thats where ive gotten all my stuff from.. if the worst thing kicker ever does is sell their product in the worlds largest retailer then i think they are doing alright.

SmoTtPokeR420 Posted June 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 I honestly don't think my system is a shitty system either. I get windshield flex, hood flex, tire flex and all that with a budget system. I stayed up till about 2am takin notes on how to build boxes and everything ill need. I guess when I start to build ill take pics and start an actual build log. 2005 Lincoln Aviator Pioneer AppRadio2 1/0 gauge wiring Soundstream TX1.2000 2 Kicker L7 15'' subs 9 cu.ft.

n8ball2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 You really only need a circular saw and a jigsaw a straight edge and a drill to build a box. Well a pen and a tape measure too.

SmoTtPokeR420 Posted June 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Got the weekend off so ill start on it tonight after work.
