Seeking Corporate Sponsorship

I have a great idea. I have a great plan. The problem is that I have limited funding. I want so much to bring my ideas to fruition, but I need a boost or this project may take years. I don't want to waste years of time. The answer may be found in corporate sponsorship.

My Budget vs The Expense of Building Plans

Tiny Prefab eBook

Most of my readers know that I have a beer budget but champagne tastes. I like the best, but cannot afford to buy it off the showroom floor. As a result, I bargain hunt like no other and find great pleasure in being able to find what I like and desire at  a price my wallet will support.

I have been following the blogs of many Tiny House aficionados and enjoy seeing their successes. I love reading about the adventure of building one of these gems. Most have bought commercial plans to build their homes in some form or another. The plans I most coveted were over $1000, and frankly I feel that is entirely overpriced.  I understand this is a niche market, but the seller fails to understand that the majority of tiny home builders have tiny budgets as well and would like to put the money into the physical building. Since building plans are non-transferable, there is no way to "share" and spread the cost out. This is the sole reason I have not yet purchased a set of plans, but have been working on key components that don't require the building plans (i.e. water system, electrical, cabinets, etc.). But today I think my search for plans came to an end.
