Episode 6 | Stop Using this Dirty Word

Épisode 6

jeudi 8 janvier 2026 • Durée 01:19:04

It’s the most overused word in racing, and in this episode, Amanda and Megan explain why it might actually be holding your program back.

In this candid post-holiday conversation, the hosts ease in with real life (family Christmases, getting sick at the worst possible time), then shift gears into a deeper discussion every racer needs to hear: why brand awareness and logo placement alone aren’t enough anymore (and what sponsors actually want instead.) Using real-world examples, they break down the difference between being seen and being valuable, and why meaningful brand activations and authentic alignment matter more than ever.

The episode wraps with reflections on growth, learning curves, and a lighthearted look at what’s next: for racing, business, and family life.

If you’re a racer trying to build real sponsorship value, not just sell “exposure,” this episode will challenge how you think about brands, fans, and your role in the partnership.

What does a brand really look for in a motorsports partnership?

In this episode of The Racer On Demand Show, Megan and Amanda sit down with their very first guest, Dave, Marketing & Brand Activation Manager at B’laster Holdings, for a candid conversation about what actually matters on the sponsor side of the table.

With a career that spans aftermarket performance parts, tires, and motorsports marketing (including his time at Nexen Tire USA), Dave shares how he got into the industry, what his role looks like today, and how brands think about partnerships beyond logos and lap times.

If you’re a racer trying to understand how sponsors think, or a brand wondering how to create meaningful activations in motorsports, this episode pulls back the curtain.

Tune in and learn how to show up for a partner as more than just a logo on a race car.

Épisode 10

jeudi 5 mars 2026 • Durée 54:52

In this episode, Amanda Van Den Elzen and Megan Meyer dive deep into the essential "Know, Like, and Trust" factor and how it dictates everything from fan engagement to long-term sponsorship success. Moving beyond just podium finishes, they discuss how authenticity and influence are the real currencies in modern motorsports marketing.

WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE:

-- BEYOND THE PODIUM: Why sponsors are paying for your influence and ability to convert customers rather than just your race results or horsepower.

-- THE POWER OF AUTHENTICITY: Why showing your vulnerable moments and true personality makes you more relatable to fans and more attractive to potential partners.

-- MASTERING SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT: Tips for overcoming camera shyness, the importance of "reps" and multiple takes, and how providing unique value can rapidly grow your following.

-- BORROWED TRUST: How racers can act as a bridge for their sponsors by extending the trust they have already built with their fans to a new brand or product.

-- THE RISKS OF SWITCHING BRANDS: A look at how changing sponsors can erode fan trust if not handled with clear communication and a focus on product quality.

-- PROVIDING AUDIENCE-CENTRIC VALUE: Shifting the focus from yourself to your audience by solving their problems and offering behind-the-scenes insights they can't get anywhere else.

-- BRAND AWARENESS AS THE FIRST STEP: Understanding that a racer's job is often helping people simply "know" a sponsor exists before they can ever "like" or "trust" it.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU: We are planning a special Q&A episode! Head over to the Motorsports Marketing Tips Facebook group or find us on Instagram to drop your most pressing questions about sponsorship, marketing, and the racing industry so we can answer them on the air.

Episode 9 | Sorry, There's No Budget (ft. Josh Wiese)

jeudi 19 février 2026 • Durée 01:37:02

What is actually happening on the other side of your sponsorship pitch? In this episode, we are joined by Josh Wiese, a business development expert at a Fortune 300 company and former host of the Sponsored Rider Club podcast. Josh brings a perspective that most racers never get access to: the reality of how massive corporate budgets are actually managed and moved.

WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE:

-- THE REALITY OF CORPORATE BUDGETS: Why your sponsorship proposal might be competing against a new set of office chairs or an internal social media hire rather than another race team.

-- THINKING LIKE A CONTRACTOR: Shifting your mindset from "seeking support" to becoming a professional service provider that solves specific business problems.

-- BEYOND THE END CUSTOMER: How racers can provide massive value through B2B (business-to-business) connections and supplier relationships that have nothing to do with stickers on a car.

-- PROTECTING THE BRAND: The "checkered past" and social media pitfalls that can kill a sponsorship deal in 15 minutes, even after 15 years of building trust.

-- THE POWER OF RAW CONTENT: Why Josh would rather see you post a "goofy" behind-the-scenes blooper or a technical explanation than a highly produced drone shot.

-- STANDING OUT: How to use specific "visual cues" and unique personal branding to ensure you are memorable in a sea of generic pitches.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU: We are still gauging interest in an in-person sponsorship conference or workshop! If you would find value in a live event to help build your program, please let us know in the comments or via social media.

-- THE KNOWLEDGE GAP: With the landscape of sponsorship education shifting, we discuss our commitment to keeping high-level professional resources alive and accessible for grassroots racers.

-- BIG GOAL BREAKDOWN: We share our step-by-step process for reverse-engineering a massive vision into a manageable, year-long roadmap. Learn how to turn "someday" dreams into a checklist of actionable tasks that drive professional results.

What does a major brand like AMSOIL actually look for in a racer? In this episode, we sit down with Sara Oettinger, Marketing Manager at AMSOIL, to pull back the curtain on high-level motorsports marketing. Sara shares why traditional "gold, silver, and bronze" sponsorship packages are a thing of the past and explains how racers can become true extensions of a brand's marketing team.

WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE:

-- THE RACING ECOSYSTEM: Understand the balance between series, influencers, and racers, and how you fit into a brand’s "giant puzzle."

-- VALUE VS. BUDGET: Why a brand’s appreciation for your work doesn't always equate to their available budget—and how to navigate that conversation.

-- SPOTTING THE GAPS: Learn how to identify what a brand is missing in their current strategy and position yourself as the solution.

-- DISCRETIONARY EFFORT: Sara shares real-world examples of grassroots racers who stood out by showing passion and effort that went beyond a signed contract.
