A pro MTB rider today has to be on social media. Going pro runs through content now, not race results. This is the membership for riders who already ride and already post, and want a first real brand partnership inside 90 days.
The problem
How it works
To get sponsored you have to be seen first. So it is one path, in that order, not two separate topics.
Brands look at riders people already watch. So the content system comes first, and it is the part that gets your videos out of a few hundred views.
What to send, who to send it to, and what to stop doing. The approach brands actually answer, with the email trail behind it.
A reply is not a partnership. Free product, a code deal, or getting paid, and a repeatable way to get the next one.
Feedback on the lessons
Nobody has been through the membership yet - it hasn't launched. This is feedback on the same live lessons that run inside it, plus one rider's first sponsorship.
Student win
First sponsorship - a local clothing brand
“Hey, I just wanted to say thank you, your advice worked incredibly well, I ended up securing a sponsor mostly because of you.”
Everything included
Every month, live. Bring the pitch you're about to send, the video that flopped, or the deal you can't close.
One member's account, pitch and footage pulled apart in front of everyone. You'll learn as much watching someone else's as your own.
The actual ones I use for content and beyond. Not a list of recommendations - the files.
A direct text question box. You ask, I answer at my earliest convenience. No Discord to get lost in, on purpose.
There's no video library yet. It gets built from the call recordings, so early members shape what ends up in it.
+ Included free
$53 of things people have actually paid for, included.
The sponsorship workshop plus the earlier ones, yours the day you join.
Sold for $29 on its own
The views course, and step one of everything above: getting seen.
Sold for $24 on its own
The DM, email and proposal templates that shipped inside the paid workshop.
Not available today. It is being built, and early members shape what goes in it.

Who it's for
Sponsorship workshop
“Wow that was genuinely amazing! I thought I would have questions on things I didn't understand or wasn't talked about but every single thing was super clear. I don't think I could have learned more hahah. Was definitely worth the money and time, I'd say it was worth even more money!”
Leanardo
Attended the sponsorship workshop
“Excellent workshop. I learned a lot, shared my experience with sponsorship, his mistakes, and how not to do it. He explained the right approach for companies and the steps to follow. I was kept busy throughout the entire workshop, and there was no boredom. The presentation was fantastic.”
Kirill
Attended the sponsorship workshop
“It was very good, informative, and professional. Lots of info, I'll need to digest it and think it over.”

Membership
What you get
I paid over $2,000 for a two month mentorship to learn this, plus years of getting it wrong on my own. This is $50 a month.
The 90 day guarantee comes with the monthly membership. Do the work and if you haven't landed a brand partnership by day 90, you get your money back. A brand partnership means one of three things: free product, a discount code deal in exchange for content, or getting paid. Not “a brand replied.” It's conditional on you taking part - doing the work, asking for direction when you're stuck, and showing up.
About
MTB creator, 13 brand relationships
I have never been on a podium. I'm not the best rider in my country, and I still ended up with 13 brand relationships and the full email trail behind every one of them. GoPro, DJI, Sony, SUUNTO, Lewis brakes, Tru-Tension, SOTSU and others. My best affiliate has done $48,415.86 in tracked sales and $4,800.74 in commission across 79 orders. A pro MTB rider today has to be on social media. That is what I teach.
Questions
Yes. This is for riders who already ride and already post. If you're starting from nothing, go make content for a while first - you'll get far more out of this later.
Four live calls a month, plus a hot seat where one member's account, pitch and footage get pulled apart in front of everyone. Bring what you're stuck on.
No, deliberately. Instead there's “Ask Dima” - a direct text question box you send straight to me, answered at my earliest convenience. No feed to get lost in.
Not yet. It gets built out of the call recordings, which means early members shape what ends up in it.
One of three things: free product, a discount code deal in exchange for content, or getting paid. A brand replying to you doesn't count.
Anytime. Monthly is $50 with no contract, so it stops at the end of the month you cancel. Yearly keeps running to the end of the 12 months, and renews automatically unless you cancel before it does.
90 days to a first real brand partnership, and a repeatable way to get the next one.
