2. Thank you for taking the time to consider our organization and read through this partnership proposal. We would like to give you a synopsis of our team and how a sponsorship of CheckSix would be an extremely successful business venture/marketing campaign for your company. By sponsoring us, you will be providing one of the most stable, professional, and successful gaming teams with the things we need to compete in today’s challenging and complex gaming world. More and more, video games are becoming a profession as opposed to a hobby. Much like teams in the NFL, Nascar and other professional leagues, professional gaming teams require sponsorships in order to acquire the funding and equipment necessary to operate. There are numerous gaming tournaments where large groups of gamers meet to compete for cash prizes. LAN events such as the Major League Gaming (MLG) offer prize pools as much as $750,000. In addition to these huge events, there are also smaller events at local LAN centers, where teams have the opportunity to prove to the world that their skills are legitimate, and another opportunity to win prizes. These professional gaming teams have fans and followers just like any sports team. Tens of thousands of fans have the ability to tune in and watch the players play matches, as well as listen to live broadcasts of the matches. Professional teams’ websites have a large variety of content regarding the team, and receives hundreds of thousands of hits from fans. CheckSix has achieved a higher traffic ranking in the United States than any other professional team in the world! In addition, these fans have the capability to chat live with the players of the team at any time, through a program called IRC (Internet Relay Chat). At any one time, hundreds of fans can connect to CheckSix’s IRC chat room and website to discuss gaming and gaming equipment with the team and community, a feature unseen and unheard of in professional sports, but readily available in the world of professional gaming.

4. E-Sports will gain in momentum and potentially become the next sporting entertainment explosion. “ ...If you're over 35, chances are you view video games as, at best, an occasional distraction... If you’re under 35, games are a major entertainment and a part of life. In that sense, they are similar to what rock ‘n’ roll meant to boomers.” “ Whatever these games ‘mean’ to the people who play them...they mean a lot. Fifteen years ago, video games were barely more than a cottage industry, if by cottage you mean the sticky back corner of a strip mall bowling alley. Last year game sales hit $7 billion, in the same exclusive ballpark as movies (about $9 billion). We should count ourselves lucky. The video game is a brand-new medium, and we get to see it evolve from the very beginning.” “ Videogames have become a key driver behind today’s pop culture and we are excited to embrace the new frontier of professional competition in bringing the head-to-head action to our audience,” "We couldn’t help but notice that gaming had actually become a sport. Not only in the way the gamers created teams to compete, but also in their conditioning and mind set and dedication while playing. So it wasn’t a quantum leap to then determine if it was becoming a sport, we should cover it like a sport, "

14. As our team travels around the continental United States and around the World to compete, it is very difficult for us to maintain a strong monetary foundation. Because of this, our team lacks the ability to travel to more competitions at which we would easily be a top team, but can’t do so due to financial issues. Your company can consider any or all of the above as marketing and advertisement costs. In return for your help and sponsorship, our organization is dedicated to promoting your products not only on an entry level, but on a partnership level. Through the help of sponsors, this team can start competing at the next level. We request that you take into account the following proposal. As an official sponsor of the CheckSix Organization, your corporation will receive a banner advertisement on our website, ad space, chat channel advertisements, a banner on competition attire, a banner on competition computers, promotional giveaways, promotional articles, and anything else that we may accommodate for your generosity and support. 1. Being Able to Travel to Tournaments - There is no use in being professional if you can’t afford to travel to the various events and tournaments here at home and abroad. Travel and accommodations represent the majority of our costs. 2. Being Able to Train - Professional gamers train for up to 12 hours per day, every day to stay at the top of their game. This does not allow much time for work, and often professional gamers are forced to drop out because they need financial stability to survive. A monthly living allowance would not only allow us to focus on training, but it would also bring greater stability to the team members. Your contribution to meeting these objectives can come at a financial level. We would like to find at least one Head Team Sponsor, who will cover most of our expenses, and who will be the driving force that will help us reach our goal. Of course, the Head Sponsor will be most prominently featured in all of our marketing, and will be by our side at the top of professional gaming. In professional gaming, it is usually a team of sponsors who make it all happen. If you have already committed most of your marketing dollars for the year, you may want to consider becoming a Premier Sponsor instead. You will still receive all the benefits of exposure to millions of people worldwide, and will be prominently featured in all of our clothing, website, and word of mouth marketing. Once you have made the decision to sponsor our organization, we will work with you on the details of the agreement. We are extremely flexible, and we do not have any official sponsorship rules, conflicts of interest, regulations, or guidelines. Essentially, we want to make sure that you are happy with the arrangement, and ultimately to help you profit from it.

15. Professional gaming otherwise known as eSports is quickly growing in popularity,both as a participatory sport and as a spectator sport. Major League Gaming (MLG) quotes that with their yearly gaming events, viewer ship is in the hundreds of thousands. It is clear that this number is expected to grow; this year’s MLG Circuit . All of the aforementioned features are prime examples of how CheckSix can provide your company with unique advertising opportunities. CheckSix directly reaches gamers through multiple avenues. When we attend any LAN event, we wear attire that have our sponsors’ logos on them; much like sports teams have such logos on their jerseys. Just like at sporting events, LAN events have fans that pay a fee to watch teams play live. LAN events such as the CPL have been covered by networks such as ESPN and MTV, reaching millions of people worldwide. Pictures, articles, and journals are posted on thousands of websites that specialize in gaming coverage. CheckSix has been covered and interviewed countless times by such media outlets, and recognized as one of the top gaming organizations. We work hard to provide our sponsors with direct exposure to the people buying their products– gamers and gaming enthusiasts. This is a prime opportunity for your company to obtain major media exposure for the market demographic of ages 18-35. All of the participants and most of the spectators are extreme, dedicated gamers, and demand the best in computer equipment to heighten their gaming experience. This group as you know is also one of the higher consumers of computer parts, fast foods, soda products, movie tickets, music, and other similar products (quoted by President of the CPL, Angel Munoz). Whether or not your company is directly connected to computers, your primary target audience is. While professional gaming grows in popularity, the gaming industry has already been featured in several mainstream media outlets like ESPN, MSNBC, and The New York Times, just to name a few. For our Head Team Sponsor, we will feature your company name right inside the game, hundred’s of thousands of gamers spectate many of the events that our team plays in. We are flexible, and open to discussing your own marketing ideas with you. Sponsoring CheckSix will bring your products and/or brand names into the spotlight of gamers worldwide. Your brand will be synonymous with the youthful intelligent image that pro-gaming has.You will have prime advertising space on our website, IRC channel every hour 24/7 and clothes, which we will wear at competitive events all year round. Also if desired, we could sell your products from our pro-gaming shop! Our IRC (Internet Relay Chat) chat room has hundreds of fans that connect to talk with our team on a personal and professional level. We have the ability to place a text advertisement in this channel that can broadcast what you want the fans to see. The ad can also have a link to your website which will provide immediate exposure to your company. Our website (www.check6gaming.com) has places for your company to add banner advertisements. We will add your company’s logo to the sponsors. In addition, we will provide your company with space under the "Sponsors" section, to place an overview about your company. Our web team is currently working on a"Pro Shop," where we will have the ability to sell all of our sponsors’ products. We can set up a link to buy directly from your website, and add pictures and reviews of your product upon your wishes. CheckSix IRC Channel - 200 users/regular night, 400+ users/match night (ScoreBot of the match)‏ We will automatically endorse your product and/or brands in any possible television, magazine or online promotion we are involved with, and any interviews we participate in. To promote your company further we will do reviews and features on your products to boost awareness in the online gaming scene. Aside from the public reviews, if requested we can also produce some private reports giving constructive criticism and feedback about your product, helping you further develop your hardware/application to suit the growing needs of a pro-gamer. We will endeavor to make ourselves available for media events on your behalf, such as demonstrating your products, and will also grant you the access to contracted players from the organization for promotional advertisements in television commercials and other possibilities, represented by photos, quotes, video and audio recordings.
