Sponsor Magnet: Attract, Price, & Execute Dream Partnerships
How a Keynote Speaker Landed a Brand Deal Seen by 1M+ People
What happens when a B2B consultant who's never called himself a "creator" ends up with his face on a banner seen by over a million people? Jay Acunzo breaks down how he turned cold, cobbled-together sponsor arrangements into a systematic revenue engine — without ever sending a rate sheet. Why Jay refuses to call himself a YouTuber, podcaster, or newsletter writer — and how he still built a sponsorship engine anyway The "stacking" strategy that turned a Mailchimp partnership into content he wanted to make anyway How reigniting a cold relationship with Wistia turned into a 4-webinar series that outperformed their biggest marketing expense of the year The licensing lesson that got Jay thousands of extra dollars he never would've asked for Why goal-based proposals beat rate sheets every single time Follow our guest: Jay Acunzo — https://linkedin.com/in/jayacunzo Grab my book, Sponsor Magnet, to learn how to transform your influence into income: https://sponsormagnet.com Want one-on-one sponsorship coaching?
