Sponsorship has become a fashionable concept in recent years. The principle could not be simpler and can be summed up in a simple sentence: if you are satisfied with a service or others, you can invite one or more of your acquaintances to also use this service. To thank you for having brought in a new client, the company publishing the service gives you an advantage, the same goes for your newly registered godchild.
It is actually an exchange of good practices. Sponsorships allow gains for all stakeholders :
It would be a shame not to take advantage of it, right? But concretely, how does it work? What gains can you expect to make? Which services are affected?
Sponsorship exists for a large number of services of all kinds, ranging from the most useful to the most harmless, from the most serious to the most atypical. The article is not intended to present them all, I am indeed very far from having a complete vision of the Godfather / Godson landscape. I simply wish to allow you to discover the main ones, do not hesitate to complete me in the comments if you notice a glaring omission. Let’s start the tutorial:
As you can see, the offers are many and varied , knowing that this is only a panel that is far from exhaustive.
I will only speak from my own experience. I invite you to read the article How I won €1,300 net of tax, which presents some examples of sponsorships, very simple to set up, and which allowed me to free up, with very little effort, gains of several hundred euros. As far as we are concerned here, the amounts you can expect to earn depend on 2 main factors:
One of my objectives for the current year is to approach the amount mentioned above, by freeing up €1,000 in bonuses of all kinds before the end of December 2014. Sponsorship is obviously one of the levers that I intend to use to achieve this significant figure. I will detail my progress on the subject in a future post. In general, making a few tens to a few hundred euros in earnings per year by using and abusing sponsorship seems realistic: from your internet package to your car insurance, via online banks, you will regularly have a few services to renew. So take the opportunity to be sponsored or to sponsor yourself, by filling your wallet with a few precious euros.
Have you ever had the opportunity to be sponsored by a friend? To become a sponsor in turn? What do you think of this win-win principle? As mentioned, if I forgot an important type of sponsorship, do not hesitate to let me know in the comments!
