Great question. No, our clients vary greatly. We offer a fantastic, easy-to-maintain solution for our racing clients, but we also create websites for sponsorship partners, small businesses, independent contractors, athletic teams, and other organizations.
-
The timeline can vary slightly, but in most cases, we can turn a proposal around within the week. Keep in mind, that the driver or team plays a vital role in the turnaround process. We work directly with our clients when developing proposals. We rely on sound communication, information, and sometimes quality photos. If it takes a long time to receive a response from our client, it will certainly take much longer.

We get this question a lot. We do not offer tangible (physical) driver hero/signature cards, but you can order them through Roy Ophime Photography. What we do offer directly from the Midwest Racing Network are digital hero/signature cards that you can download and take to have printed or that you can share with your fans and sponsorship partners.

Excellent question. The process is simple. You will choose from one of three options (Gold, Silver, or Bronze). The gold package is a fully customized website solution. Customized solutions do take longer to complete. You will be provided with an account to manage certain aspects of your website (results, schedule, blog). Every year you will renew your website contract with the Midwest Racing Network. We do offer support contracts for those who prefer not to maintain certain aspects of their website.

Yes, we can. In fact, this is one of our core strengths. We are constantly building relationships with teams across the Midwest. We can help you secure a long-lasting partnership with a team, driver, track, or series, or we can help you sponsor a live event. Trust the Midwest Racing Network for all of your partnership needs.

It’s very simple. Fill out our referral program form online. After you submit your form, if a referral contact purchases a product or service from the Midwest Racing Network, you will receive 10$ in MRN credit that can be used toward a future purchase.

ABSOLUTELY NOT. We support teams, drivers, tracks, partners, series, vendors, and race fans from any racing class and on any surface. We support dirt and asphalt racing across twelve Midwest states and we are proud of that. Let us know how we can help.

We get this question a lot. Each season we choose a handful of cars or drivers to support with our branding packages. At this time, we do not sponsor teams or drivers through our marketing program. In the future, we do plan on offering an exciting motorsports marketing campaign that drivers and teams can apply for. Stay tuned!

Yes. We have more than two decades of experience in the motorsports marketing arena. We offer two options for our clients as it relates to securing motorsports marketing partners. First, you can sign an annual base contract that requires an annual fee and includes tiers of commission based on the level of sponsorship that is secured. There are no guarantees that a partner will be secured for your driver, team, track, series, or race vehicle. We want to be very clear about this. You will receive monthly reports outlining our commitment to the process. The second option is a straight commission-based partnership. You do not pay an annual base contract rate whatsoever. The rate of commission is higher for this option than the annual base contract option. Regardless of the option you feel is best for you, our commitment remains intact for the life of the sponsorship agreement. If the Midwest Racing Network secures a marketing partner for you in year one, the Midwest Racing Network receives a commission for securing that partner. If that partner renews their partnership in year two, the Midwest Racing Network receives a renewal commission upon renewal. Connect with us today if we can help you secure a motorsports partner.
