Re: searching for sponsors

Again, another non-robotic area are Politicians. I was told that they also have funds that they can give out.
They might not have a lot (or they could) to give but every little bit will help.

If you plan to send out any letters requesting sponsorship remember; 1. Give them a deadline. 2. Followup with a phone call if you don't hear from them. 3. Let them know they can also contribute certain items that could help your team (i.e. tools and materials) 4. If you go after sponsors that are in the area of food they can help by feeding your team.

Even if you are out somewhere and you spot a potential sponsor ask them. Cold contact isn't always the best but it can never hurt. Just make sure you can answer any question they might come up with.

Hope this helps.
