Re: How to approach sponsors

When dealing with sponsors, I have learned one thing. Sponsors want to hear from the students. They want to hear what the kids think about the program and what they are getting out of it.

Coaches/Mentors: let your student's excitement about the program get the sponsors excited about the program. You can be there to answer more administrative questions, but the spotlight should be squarely on the kids.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
