    Default got ma a sponsor 4 this year

    not a bad deal was checking into getting sidding and 1 window replaced fairly new company started discussing some stuff and they asked how a 3000.00 sponsorship sounded to me to cut 3000.00 off the amount i would pay 4 the sidding and window i was like sounds good to me. the 1 guy knows how to do body work and paint on vehicles. Is this to good to be true? or 1 of those once in a lifetime deals?

    Take it! Not often a normal working guy gets a $3,000 sponsorship for a year. I've got one for $1,500 & another that does work for no $ or cost. After this sponsorship; the rest become easier since you can inform other companies of already having sponsorship.... kinda like they'd better jump on before they miss the boat kinda thing....

    Have you got competitive quotes on the same work? If they come in $3,000.00 or more less, run from these guys

    I just went through something sort of like this. I need to have my house sided as well. So I want to get some estimates, a local guy I know, but was a little unsure if he could handle the job (big house, very high), another outfit that I used for my replacement windows, and a "new" outfit that has reallly been marketing heavy in our area. The two "normal" quotes were within $800.00 of each other, I assume that was details of their quote, or materials. The "new" company was nearly double the estimate, then started offering a "rebate" and a "discount" if we kept a sign on out lawn for 6 months. after all of that they were still 50% above the other estimates. These guys still could have gave me $3,000.00 and been well above the other estimates. I geuss they get some percentage of the jobs they bid because people dont shop.

    I hope its a real deal for you, but I'm always leary about that. Will they give you the $3,000.00 without signing a contract?

    i'll have to look at it over some more but so far they have been the lowest price on siding and the window i need to replace another company was wanting 20,000.00 plus to do same thing so i found a company that was just starting out. Then i asked them if they knew people that drag race the 1 guy said yeah i said why dont you sponsor any of them, to get your name out there. Then i got on the subject that i race down at a drag track and they asked if i would be interested in going with there company if they could give me a good deal i said let me see the numbers and they said it would be 3000.00 1 year sponsorship
