Community love

What the communities we help say about ZipSprout

ZipSprout helped us get money from quality sponsored Ads hosted on our website. We are a nonprofit, so every dollar counts towards hosting a FREE Semi-Annual Festival! Love working with the ZipSprout fulfillment team. Always great to hear from them. A wonderful small team of dedicated professionals!

Co-Founder
Atlanta Mushroom Festival

We attracted appropriate sponsors for each particular program. They placed their logos on one of our program pages for one year. When the community saw these pages for special events, they could click on the sponsor site. ZipSprout coordinated the sponsorship connections and payment of fees with greate attention to detail.

Working with ZipSprout has been great. They helped match local businesses and schools together in the form of a sponsorship. We’re both in the business of sponsorships, ZipSprout does a great job of trying to match those and its a huge time saver.

Working with ZipSprout has helped us increase our local visibility and connect with community outreach that aligns with our mission. In addition, it has also given us a chance to support local initiatives and build backlinks that may contribute to long-term SEO benefits.

We are hopeful that over time, this kind of exposure will lead to stronger recognition and commitments. We are excited to further our presence through the opportunities that ZipSprout exhibits.

The ZipSprout team has been such a joy to work with. They’ve supported Women in Tech SEO as a WTSPartner and exhibiting at our WTSFest conferences – always showing up with genuine enthusiasm and a real commitment to our mission. They’ve supported further outside our partnership through initiatives like their survey donations that help better our industry and support keeping our WTS community sustainable. Every interaction we’ve had with them has been kind, genuine, and full of enthusiasm for what we’re building together. We’re so grateful for their support and the way they show up for our members.

I appreciate working with Cody Brooke on the ZipSprout team. His responsiveness, clarity, and genuine commitment to helping us find the right digital partnership opportunities have made the entire process smooth and enjoyable.

Cody’s ability to understand our goals quickly and present thoughtful, well‑matched recommendations has been incredibly valuable. It’s clear he puts real care into his work, and it shows in the quality of the partnerships he has helped us explore.

ZipSprout helped us get a few sponsorships from companies who wouldn’t have known about us otherwise. Since we are a small nonprofit, it’s important for programs like ZipSprout to connect us to companies who don’t know about us.

2nd Act

ZipSprout provided us with invaluable funding that helps us cover legal research tools to help us train and support over 1,000 court-appointed attorneys. This helps us expand our reach and provide more support for youth in Massachusetts who need education representation.

Small non-profits like ours have limited resources to reach new donors, so having an organization like ZipSprout find donors and connect them to us is priceless.
