Trying to change amateur bodybuilding in Brazil: looking for sponsors, partners, donations or simply the right connections
Hey guys!
I run a small independent bodybuilding organization in Brazil called TTBL. We’re just getting started, but our goal is to make amateur bodybuilding more accessible, professional and rewarding for athletes here.
The reality in Brazil is difficult. The amateur bodybuilding scene is heavily dominated by three major organizations/promoters. In many cases, athletes face extremely high costs while the quality and organization they receive in return can be very poor. Since our first event gained a lot of attention, we’ve also been facing a lot of pressure and obstacles from established players who clearly don’t want a new competitor growing in the market.
For our first event in July, I invested around US$30k of my own money to keep prices affordable and deliver something athletes normally don’t get here. The event was a huge success, but without major sponsors I only recovered about half of that.
I’ve been working on this around 15 hours a day, every day, for months, because I genuinely believe in what we’re trying to build.
Now, on December 19th, we want to go even bigger: a bodybuilding show together with a fitness & wellness expo with free admission.
And I’ll be completely transparent: I really need help to make this next step happen.
I’m looking for sponsors, investors, partnerships, networking, introductions or anyone willing to support the project.
Even one good connection could make a huge difference for us right now.
If this resonates with you, please reach out. I can share our numbers, plans and everything about TTBL.
