The sooner you can apply for sponsorship, the better your chances that a consideration of your proposal will be made by the sponsor in time for your event.

Sponsorship programs often state a minimum response time for applications that can take several weeks, and in many cases sponsorship requests that are too close to the event date will not be accepted.

In matching your race with open sponsorship programs, Sponsor Finder takes account of sponsorship programs' lead times and other program information. So using Sponsor Finder earlier will yield more sponsor leads, as well as increased chances of your proposal being accepted by sponsors.
