Site sponsors list

[normanaj]

Always wondered why there's no list of site sponsors.Most folks would give these people business if they knew who they were but they have come and gone over the years and a list would be nice.

Found this thread but nothing came about because of it.

I Can't Find Our Sponsors

I know that there are numerous sponsors of our Form. Is there a list somewhere of who they are and what products they sell? I can't seem to find any list in any of our Forums. If I am correct, would it not be a good idea to include them somewhere on our sight? Thanks, John

I would definitely support folks when I had a need for sure.

I wish the sponsors would be more active in advertising specials or topics here. That would keep them current in the thread listing and more relevant.

I've asked this several times too. Seems like there would at least be a forum thread they would be active in. I know if I paid to be a sponsor I'd want that info readily seen.

There used to be a list . I've done business with most of them , just because .

My thoughts exactly! I also believe sponsors that are active and seen participating in the forum would get them more business.

Todd Johnson A-Maze-N Products, Inventing the AMNPS and AMNTS (tray and tube pellet smoker generators.) He was very tuned in to members here with whether you need a tube or just the maze mostly based on your altitude of 3,000'+ for a tube. Vacuum sealers unlimited, Thermopro, Inkbird sponsors they all have lots of my money as well from offers here. I haven't had problems with warranties. I just upgrade but pay for testing so (which is just buying and using it) sponsors are great! It's all about the return on a sponsor's investment if they want to stay based on what they pay to be a sponsor.

This is a great idea to keep a list, and I'll work on that. Added it to my list.

FYI, I worked out a deal with LEM Grinders to give SMF members 20% off their products sitewide for 10 days, which starts on Friday. I'm planning to post about that tomorrow.

As far as I know, the only active sponsors we have right now are Thermoworks and Porter Road. There are quite a few affiliates, though, and I can list those as well. Camp Chef, Fireboard, and a few others.

I really love it when companies post value-added content in the forum, particularly helping with technical issues, questions.

I was wondering what happened with Todd and A-maze-n smokers. Is that a sponsorship SMF lost? Or he isn't actively selling anymore?

This is a good point, and I need to probably hunt down Porter Road and Thermoworks threads in particular and make sure they're tagged.

The last time this came up , someone linked a list .
I saw it as a " section " where it was posted , but maybe it was a list typed out by someone in the know . I've looked for it with no luck .

Same here after you mentioned it in your earlier post.

Todd has sold the business to Pit Boss... They now carry the A-MAZE-N product on thier website... He's not been active in the forums for many of years now...

Abigail4476 I'm pretty sure you are correct that we are down to Porter Road and Thermoworks. I believe the rest have dropped out. Todd sold out long ago and retired I do believe. Inkbird dropped out when the tariffs were announced. It would be nice to get some more active sponsors and I don't think I would include the affiliates they need to step up and become sponsors
