You're viewing the original Hometown Invasion Tour website as it appeared when launched in 2006. Back then, a site built with tables and flash was commonplace. A few changes were made, but it appears as it did eleven years ago. A modern and responsive version is in the works.

Monetary sponsorships and in-kind donations are both accepted. 

Media coverage
Sponsors will be mentioned and thanked during radio interviews and other media to show my appreciation.   Through extensive media coverage, a sponsoring company will be recognized thoroughly and give the company awareness.   Publicity will be achieved in local radio, newspaper, and TV stations while in those towns by sending press releases.   Additionally, large national press will also be contacted.

Reach in all 50 states
Your organization will reach areas across the nation, spanning a one-year sponsorship.   Coverage will include the already aforementioned media, Hometown Invasion website, and the Hometown Invasion car which will be seen by thousands on America’s highways and in media feature stories.   The car will have sponsoring logos, Hometown Invasion logos, and a colorful design to draw attention and refer people to the website.   Logos, company information, product information, and more can also be placed on the website if desire, which will be the central point to reach people.

Word of mouth effectiveness
Today’s media and advertising culture reveals thousands of ads to a single consumer each day.   Word of mouth is becoming increasingly important for companies to generate awareness as consumers rely more on their friends and family for their purchasing behavior.   On this tour, everyone I come in contact with will see and hear about the car I’m driving, the laptop, phone, camera gear, food, and more.   Consumers will see the trust that I put in your company as a sponsor to make the project a success.   That trust will extend to consumers sharing the trust in your company and brand.

Connect to unique audience with innovation
Sponsoring companies will have the unique opportunity of relating with an innovative and ambitious audience.   By partnering with a unique project consumers will make the association with your organization’s innovative and progressive personality.   In a world flooded with advertising that’s become more cluttered it’s necessary find innovative ways to reach an audience.

Contact
Those interested in sponsorship can contact me through e-mail. Leave your name, company, location, and phone number and I’ll get in touch with you immediately. If your organization has special requests I will be happy to accommodate those.
