How to Sponsor LiL Poison: What to Check Before You Commit
Updated
LiL Poison's official site (lilpoison.com) has a dedicated Sponsor Lil Poison section in its main menu, so sponsorship is presented as an open partnership option rather than a closed program. To move forward, use the site's Contact page or the listed email addresses to ask about sponsorship needs and formats directly — the site itself publishes no sponsorship tiers, prices, or payment methods, so nothing can be confirmed until you talk to the team.
What the site actually tells you
The public page is a biography and media hub, not a sponsorship prospectus. Everything below comes from that page:
| Item | Detail on the site |
|---|---|
| Real name | Victor De Leon III |
| Born | May 6th 1998 |
| Based in | Long Island, New York |
| Claim to fame | Guinness World Record holder as the Youngest Pro Video Gamer in the World |
| Records | Holds 2 Guinness World Records |
| Signed as pro | At age 6, recruited by MLG |
| Public reach (self-reported) | 50+ media appearances, 250 events, 20 medals |
| Sponsor entry point | "Sponsor Lil Poison" in the main menu |
| Contact | Contact page, [email protected], [email protected] |
Note the copyright line reads 2011, and the upcoming events listed (March 25, April 1, April 17) are marked "To be announced soon" with no year. Treat the reach numbers and event calendar as historical unless the team confirms otherwise.
Before you reach out, decide what you're buying
The site doesn't define sponsorship packages, so you'll need to propose or ask for the shape of the deal. Useful questions to bring:
- What exposure do you get? The page claims 50+ media appearances and 250 events, but doesn't say which are current. Ask for recent, dated examples rather than the lifetime totals.
- What's the audience? The bio points to a gaming/competitive audience (Halo, Call of Duty, MLG, Xbox Live), which suits gaming peripherals, energy drinks, or youth-oriented brands more than general consumer goods.
- What deliverables exist? Jersey/logo placement, stream or event appearances, social posts, and photo gallery or media appearances are all plausible, but none are listed on the site — confirm each one in writing.
- What's the term? One event, one season, or ongoing? The site's event list is sparse and undated, so ask for a forward calendar.
How to make contact
- Go to lilpoison.com and open the Contact page from the main menu.
- If the form doesn't work or you want a direct route, use the two published addresses: [email protected] and [email protected].
- In your first message, state your brand, the type of sponsorship you're considering, your budget range, and the time window. Since no pricing is published, giving a range gets you a faster, more concrete reply.
- Ask explicitly for: current appearance schedule, recent media placements with dates, and any existing sponsor roster to check for category conflicts.
Common sticking points
- No published pricing or payment methods. The site lists no pricing signals and no payment platforms, so don't assume a rate card exists or that payment can be handled on-site. Everything is negotiated off-page.
- Undated content. The 2011 copyright and "to be announced" events mean you should verify current activity before committing budget.
- Self-reported metrics. The 50+ / 250 / 20 figures come from the site itself; ask for third-party confirmation (media links, event results) if the numbers matter to your decision.
- Record claims. The "youngest pro gamer" and "2 Guinness World Records" claims are stated on the page; if your brand needs to reference them publicly, verify the record listings independently first.
If the current activity level and audience match your target, the site gives you a clear path: Contact page or the two emails, then negotiate terms directly. If you need published rates or a formal media kit before engaging, this site won't provide them — you'll have to request both.
