For athletes and creators
You already have an audience.
Sponsmi turns it into sponsorship income, without an agent taking a cut and without cold messaging strangers.
Five steps, start to paid.
Build the profile
Sport or niche, level, achievements, social reach across every platform, the deal types you take, and your minimum price. Takes about five minutes.
Get found, or go hunting
Businesses filter the directory by sport, level, city, and reach. You can also browse open opportunities with stated budgets and pitch the ones that fit.
Talk before anything is formal
Message any business directly. Ask what they actually want, negotiate scope, float ideas. Nothing is binding until an offer is written.
Accept a written offer
An offer spells out deliverables, price, and timeline. Accept it and the business funds the deal through Sponsmi before you do the work.
Deliver and get paid
Do the work, mark it delivered, the business confirms. The deal closes and the review lands on your profile.

Questions talent asks.
Does it cost me anything?+
Joining, messaging, and pitching are free. When a deal closes, Sponsmi keeps ten percent of it, so a five hundred dollar deal pays you four hundred and fifty. Price your minimum with that in mind.
What if I do not have a big following?+
Local sponsorships often care more about who you reach than how many. A fighter with four thousand engaged local followers is genuinely valuable to a gym or a supplement shop two miles away.
What should I set as my minimum?+
Start where a business would not blink: two hundred and fifty dollars is a common floor for a logo placement plus a few posts. You can raise it as your review history builds.
I am a college athlete. Is this NIL compliant?+
Sponsmi gives you the deal record, written deliverables, and payment trail that compliance offices ask for. You are still responsible for following your school, conference, and state NIL rules, and for disclosing deals where required. We do not provide compliance advice.
When do I actually get paid?+
The business funds the deal before you start, and Sponsmi holds the money. You submit proof of delivery, and funds release when they confirm, or automatically after five days if they go quiet.
