Testimonials

"Thanks to Mario, I secured a sponsorship with Hotel Colee (formerly the W) in Buckhead for more than $12k.

And we are now talking about them sponsoring my Sip & Shop events for the rest of the year with talks of all of 2022 as well. I’m so excited about the sponsorship and want to use it to get even more sponsorships from other companies. I’m using what you taught to get monetary sponsorship and I got myself an intro to Lexus later this week."

"I’m getting in the door so much faster because of Marios process. Before I took the course, it took me months before I was able to reach a brand.

But now that I’m utilizing Mario’s formula, I’ve been getting an immediate response from sponsors. It has been eye-opening to see how quickly I am getting in the door with these big brands, just by applying the steps he has laid out."

Testimonial from Shark Tank's Daymond John

"I've watched Mario take his ideas from just that 'an idea' to developing his own show and building his business by selling sponsorships. Mario is the real deal, he fights for the underdog. I love his technology expertise, his marketing savvy and his ability to teach others with empathy. He's a good dude and he's also one of my highly sought after speakers for my public speakers company Shark Speakers."

Mario Armstrong (@marioarmstrong)

I’ve personally pitched and secured dozens of brand sponsorship deals totalling over $3 million with some of the largest companies in the world, including Capital One, Wix, Facebook, Ford, Intel, Target, Beats by Dre, FedEx Office, and Zenni.

I’ve grown two companies based solely off of sponsorship. I’m talking about every idea, every project, every event, and countless podcast episodes, social media posts and online videos—each and every time, I got sponsorship money to not just cover my costs, but to turn a significant profit.

I’m also the host, creator and executive producer of my own show, the Never Settle Show, which in less than two years I took from an idea to a full production that’s shot in front of a live studio audience in New York City, funded 100% by brand sponsorship. The show has been successful, too, with two Emmy Award nominations and one Emmy win!

When I’m not securing sponsorship or hosting my own show, you might catch me on NBC’s TODAY Show, CNN, and NPR. I’ve also done appearances on shows like Inside Edition, Dr. Oz and more.

While my background is in sales, and my career in media and entrepreneurship, my passion is helping people win.

I focus on positivity and advice to inspire people to take action on their dreams and passions.

More Testimonials

"Mario's systemic approach to brand sponsorship that focuses on alignment opens you up to a world of possibilities.

As a creative (with a big vision but small following) Mario's passion for what he does in combination with his deep knowledge, empathy and compassion gives you the motivation to take your own ideas seriously, the structures to do the work, and the "never settle" mentality when it comes to pursuing your highest vision.

He teaches from lived experience and has a unique way of seeing opportunities and connections for you that you might not consider. He really expands the sponsorship possibilities."

- Dina G., Performing Artist, Author, Speaker, & Teacher

"The way Mario taught me how to get alignment with a sponsor was so important. I’m an author & I want sponsorships for book sales, a book tour and for public speaking opportunities. I was able to align my goals with an organization who also has an impactful mission.

I used Mario's 3 Asks strategy to make my pitch and ended up getting a check. Mario’s advice on how to not just be solely focused on National brands but how to also access local companies and organizations for sponsorship was the sweet spot for me"

- Anji, Author in New York
