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!

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.

ZipSprout reached out to us via our contact form to provide us with exposure and connect us to great sponsors. They’ve been very pleasant to work with, and the process of being matched was very simple and easy.
