Unhelpful sponsors.
I have found most sponsors are helpful when you ask them a question, however some of them won't help unless you send them lots of sales.
I have a blog that gets a lot of traffic but its a non hardcore site. I know what converts on it, so I asked a sponsor that had great content I could convert if they could do me some banners using particular models in a particular size, and the response I got was it will be added to the list of banners to be considered. The only reason I asked the sponsor was because the blog although mainstream tends to only convert gay sponsors, probably because the blog features male celebrities, and this particular sponsor had some guys that would convert but only had hardcore banners.
My main sponsor has always created banners on request even before I converted with them and has always been happy to do so. I just assumed all sponsors are happy to help, but apparantly not. Unless you send the sales it seems some are not interested.
I dropped the sponsor anyway. I am not wasting my time if they don't want to help.
Just wondering what other people's experiences are. Do you get help when you ask for tools, banners etc. Or do you just get fobbed off ?
