On the other, I am thinking that some businesses may already be in the process of budgeting sponsorship dollars for next year.

I want to make the most compelling story possible without missing the window of opportunity.

When do you think the best time to approach sponsors would be?
Now, a lot of fiscal years start Oct 1st and Jan 1st They might be doing budget and marketing planning as we speak.
