ALEX STRILER
If you're looking for sponsors, start with Alex's bestseller, Motorsports Marketing and Sponsorships. It combines over 20 years of practical experience in issuing, selling, and activating sponsorships.
If you don't like to read, you can attend his virtual summits, in-person presentations, and watch or listen to the recordings instead.
You may decide to hire an agent, work with an agency, or hunt sponsors alone, but you should always be weary of those who charge a monthly retainer without first producing results.
