REQUEST REFUSAL BAD VERSION

Oct 24, 2020

Mr. Luan Gjirakuqi

Kosovo Biking Association

831 Peje, Kosovo

Dear Mr. Gjirakuqi:

Pursuant to your request that we become a major sponsor of the first annual Rugova Balkan Mountain Bike Championship, this is to inform you that we cannot do so.

Right now there is no way we could be a major sponsor. As you must know, we are a small company fighting for our life in competition with cheap Chinese and Turkish imports. We've got critical necessities to spend our money on at this point in time.

Sure, we're sponsored some biking events in the past. But we were in better shape financially and saleswise then. So what are we spending our money on? Research! You know the saying, "You have to spend money to make money."

Your organization may be doing great things for the sport of mountain biking in Kosovo. But you really should be asking for huge donations from some of those big companies that are connected to the government and profiting from their corrupt activities.

We might be able to spring for a couple of trophies or for a program advertisement, but you've come to the wrong place for major support. That's the best we an do. Please do not hesitate to call in the event that you may have any questions.

Sincerely,
