Dear potential sponsor,
Thanks for your interest in partnering with me on Simple Homeschool!
I love working with companies who have something unique to offer the homeschooling community. To me it feels like a win-win-win–something that benefits your business, my own family, and my readers!
There aren’t many other sites Simple Homeschool’s size who offer personal ad packages. To me that has always felt really important. I love that I get to manage those myself, forming connections and relationships with those who sponsor this site.
Simple Homeschool began in 2010, so it has a history of over than a decade and has built up a strong community of readers. These readers have grown to trust me, and they have an interest in the resources I write about and recommend.
This space is considered one of the most reputable and long-lasting homeschooling sites online, whose visibility and credibility offers sponsors brand recognition and an official stamp of approval.
Here are a few details that would be helpful to know about Simple Homeschool:
- More than 27,000 engaged email subscribers
- More than 150,000 Facebook followers
- More than 12,000 Instagram followers
Current Rates:

Each sponsorship includes:
- your 125×125 button, uploaded on the site
- a text link in the footer of the weekly email sent to my list
- a mention as a Featured Sponsor in my homeschool links (2 mentions in a 4 month sponsorship)
- a mention & link on my Facebook page (150,000+ followers – 2 mentions in a 4 month sponsorship)
- a mention alongside other current sponsors in an e-blast to my list (1 mention in a 4 month sponsorship)
- optional extra (Highly recommended for best results!) – monthly resharing of posts from your Facebook page to my own:
“Looking at our FB Insights > Posts stats over the last year, it is rare that we can crack 1,000 impressions. We are a small company, and the impressions we get are proportional to the amount of followers we have.
When a page like yours shares our post, everything scales incredibly high. FB is really saturated right now, and it is harder to break through to an audience. We just closed out a sale, and we outperformed what we were expecting. It can’t be a coincidence that the amount of sales came right after you shared the post.
We are also getting more leads signing up on our mailing list, and that is our primary goal from advertising with you. In the end, we got our 2nd highest impressions for a post ever – regardless of if we boosted it or not – after you shared.”
I’m happy to add this as an optional benefit to sponsors up to once a month; I just need someone from your team to email the direct url of the post that you’d like me to reshare each month.
Here’s what two of my sponsors have to say about working with me:
“I really appreciate the detailed reporting you provide. It’s incredibly helpful, and is just one of many reasons why this partnership is so valued by us.
I love how you highlight Google Analytics in your quarterly check-in emails, along with the rundown of where we have been featured. Having those results always makes renewing an easy yes!” ~ Oak Meadow (sponsor since 2014)
“I woke up this morning and looked at my Google Analytics and wondered ‘How in the world did we get so much site traffic yesterday? And on a Friday? It must be spam.’
Then I realized it was from your featured sponsor mention. Not only was it traffic, it was really good traffic in terms of bounce rate, avg session duration, exit %, and pages per session. Thank you!” ~ My Fun Science (sponsor since 2019)
Previous sponsors include PBS, Signing Time, Math-U-See, Great Homeschool Conventions, Sonlight, Time4Learning, and more!

If the above sounds like something that could benefit your business/company, I’d love to consider partnering with you!

I’ll get back to you as soon as I can! I love connecting with sponsors like you and sharing your gifts with my wonderful readers.
On behalf of my family, thank you!
With gratitude,
Jamie
