Features

Everything You Need to Manage Sponsors

Keep every sponsorship safely organized under one roof — from the first outreach reply to the paid invoice, whether you write alone or lead a team.

Deal Pipeline

Every sponsor conversation tracked through lead, negotiating, booked, live and paid — built into your workflow, not another spreadsheet.

Auto-Generated Media Kit

A public rate page that rebuilds itself from your subscriber count and open rate, with a single link that never goes stale.

Ad-Slot Calendar

Every placement in every issue on one calendar, so overbooking a slot becomes structurally impossible.

Built-in Invoicing

Invoices go out the moment a deal closes, with automatic reminders until the money actually lands.

The Splice
I ran sponsorships out of a spreadsheet for three years. The week I switched, the pipeline view surfaced $4,000 of unsold inventory sitting in my next quarter.

Morning Loop
Sponsors used to ask for our media kit and I'd panic-update a PDF at midnight. Now I send one link, and it's never out of date because it updates itself.

Inbox Atlas
We double-booked our main slot twice last year. Since the ad-slot calendar went in: zero. And creative shows up on time because Sponsley does the nagging, not me.

The benchmark gave us cover to raise rates twice in twelve months. Nobody pushed back, because the number wasn't ours — it was the market's.
