See what you guys make of this:
"I have an idea for you Blain.
Corporate sponsors - Sponsor program:
Corporate sponsors would pick stock investors in the competitions and offer
to sponsor the one they pick. An ad would then be placed for them on the
players threads (like the avitars) only to the right of the avitars, after
the players name. This way, they get free publicity when someone views
threads or other information on the site that pertains to that player.
Corporate sponsors - Winners Hall of fame.
When a corporate sponsor picks a player in the Sponsor program above, the
money they contribute to sponsor that player can become the prize for the
player when they win the competition. In return, the sponsor gets their ads
plastered around on the Winners circle page (or hall of fame page for that
winner).
This idea is like what they do for race cars in NASCAR for example. This
may help you to really boost your sponsorship and get attention to the work
you are doing with the site.
