Free Sponsor Form Printable

I’ve been trying to get my blog stuff in order recently, and I am pulling together a binder to keep track of everything. Most free printables out there have great things in them. There are calendars, to-do lists, goal sheets, sheets to keep track of the people who are sponsoring you, and more. One thing that I wasn’t finding – or finding a version that I liked – was a way to keep track of the people who you are sponsoring. After getting frustrated with Pinterest and Google, I ended up making my own.

The first version has 2 on each page. It is the quick and dirty version, designed to just keep track of everything.

SPONSOR FORM LINK (Without the watermark)

Fill out all the information on it, including circling if you bought social media shout-outs or participating in a giveaway. There’s a place for the straight ad price and one for you to write down any extra giveaway costs. Then at the end of your sponsorship, you can write down how many visitors the sponsor sent your way (this involves math from looking at your traffic sources).

The second version has 1 on each page. It is more detailed as also doubles as an evaluation of your sponsor to determine if it is worth renewing it or not. You can also use this evaluate yourself and see if you’re living up to your cost!

Like the other version, you fill it out with the usual information. But you can also write out how may social media shout-outs you were promised, how many you received, the number of followers you gained from each link in a giveaway, any other notes you want to write down, and circle if it was worth it or not. The notes section might be used to write things like, “Great to work with,” “I had to email them asking for some of the information,” “Death in the family took them offline for a week,” or “Gave me coupon code ‘Thank you’ to use later.”

I’m trying to be very deliberate with my sponsors (especially for those spots that cost more than $5), and so I’m planning to use this to help me decide where is best to spend my money in the future. I’d rather spend $20 on one ad that brings me a lot of traffic and helps me to grow as a blog and a brand than $5 on 4-5 ads ($20-25 total) that don’t bring me much at all.

Enjoy!

Today, I also bring you the awesome Jenn from Hello Rigby!

Hi Kate the (Almost) Great readers! I’m Jenn, and I blog over at hellorigby!, a lifestyle and fashion blog that’s named after my silly dog, Rigby. He’s a one-and-a-half year old Shiba Inu who runs my life most days. I mostly write about fashion and life, but I also enjoy beauty and reading so I write about those topics sometimes too. I’m a little bit sarcastic, and a lot in love with my hometown, Seattle. You’ll probably see some shots of some of my favorite places and local events from time to time too. I’d love for you to come say hi anytime!

    I think that keeping track/making a final decision on if I should go back or not is key! I tend to think about it, but then forget. Great printable!

    This is fabulous! I haven't been doing a very good job keeping track of who I'm sponsoring, so I think this will be a great help!

      What type of form are you looking for? If you’re looking for the sponsor form that you can print out for your own records, it should be in the post! If the link doesn’t work, let me know.

The most common question I get about sharing my ex The most common question I get about sharing my experience with chronic illness is "How do you deal with it?" These 3 quotes are sources of inspiration and indicative of how I do it. ⁣
⁣
1. "Guard your time fiercely. Be generous with it, but be intentional about it." - Davd Duchemin⁣
I am SO intentional with my time. Even when I (rarely) do spur-of-the-moment fun things, I'm doing mental calculations of how to make it happen. ⁣
⁣
2. "Find out who you are and do it on purpose." - Dolly Parton⁣
That's what my blog and advocacy work is. I figured out who I am: someone who helps other patients, who shares her story, who tries to change the world. And I'm doing it on purpose. ⁣
⁣
3. "For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but power, love, and self-discipline." - 2 Timothy 1:7 ⁣
I will be afraid some times (we all will) but my spirit is not one of fear or timidity. My spirt of power, love, and self-discipline enables me to keep fighting for myself and others. ⁣
