Sponsor The Extension Summit 2026

Let's grow together Community over competition

November 2 + 3, 2026  /  Online

Are you an extension educator, brand, method, or anything in between? I'd love to feature you.

Why partner

No single method is the perfect fit for every client.

My mission is to help unify the extension industry. I don't believe any single educator, method, or brand is right for every single person.

My goal is a safe space that connects the artist to fellow educators, stylists, and brands. Stylists are over the "my way or the highway" mentality. Let's make a change together.

Elevate your brand

Position your brand as a leader standing for collaboration and innovation rather than territory.

Demonstrate commitment

Show your dedication to nurturing a collaborative ecosystem in the extension industry.

Engage and connect

Get in front of a focused audience of extension artists who are actively trying to grow.

What the heck is The Extension Summit?

Fifty industry experts. Sixty to ninety seconds each.

A fully virtual event that brings together extension artists, companies, and brands.

I invite 50+ guest speakers to each share a 60 to 90 second video with one tip, trick, demo, or piece of advice. My vision is TikTok meets real education. The idea came to me scrolling one night, thinking about how much you can actually learn in under two minutes.

Every speaker submits pre-recorded, with no selling allowed, so it stays straight to the point. I stream the whole compilation live inside a four-hour event: a welcome, a masterclass from me, all 50 speakers back to back, then a live VIP speaker panel that evening. Day 2 is a VIP day of 20 to 60 minute classes from selected guest educators.

Afterward we host the replay inside Kajabi, where attendees catch what they missed based on their ticket level. There's a private Facebook group for attendees too.

How can I get involved?

It's not one-size-fits-all around here.

Donate a prize, send digital swag, showcase a product, or buy a package. The first three cost nothing beyond the item itself. Not sure which fits? Fill out a form and tell me what you're hoping to get out of it, and I'll point you in the right direction.

Last year our sponsors put together over $22,000 in prizes and scholarships for attendees. Sponsorship funds go straight back into the VIP experience and into advertising that drives event registration, which means a bigger room for your brand to be seen in.

Community Sponsor

Donate a prize

Your donation goes directly to our attendees and puts your brand in front of a room full of extension artists. Toolkits, hair, swatch rings, digital courses, coaching, all of it works.

Giveaway prizes

  • Items valued $100 to $499 at stylist price
  • Given away live during the event
  • Attendees must be present to win

Lead generation

  • Each item $150 or more at stylist price, with the total reaching $500 or more
  • Quantity counts. Five $100 gift cards wouldn't qualify, but four $150 gift cards would, and we'd draw four winners from one application
  • Our VIPs apply. Within 30 days after the summit we send you the name and email of everyone who applied for your specific prize
  • Winners don't need to be present

Scholarships

  • Includes lead generation, but one individual item has to be $1,000 or more at stylist pricing
  • Announced live during the event
  • Winners don't need to be present

All winners are selected at random by the Summit Team.

Community Sponsor

Digital swag

The lowest-lift way in. Nothing to ship and no dollar threshold to hit.

  • Coupon codes at 25% off or better, free courses, mini trainings, eBooks, and similar
  • No minimum value
  • Goes into the VIP portal for our VIP attendees
  • Gold and Premier sponsors are the exception. Their digital swag goes to every attendee, not just VIPs.

Showcase Product

Send me your physical product and I'll show it on camera, in my hands, talking about what it actually does.

  • Some features run live during the event
  • Others are pre-recorded and live in the attendee portal, so they keep working after the summit ends
  • Best for tools, hair, and anything that's easier to understand when someone's holding it
  • Submit the form first so we can talk through what to send and when it needs to arrive

Paid

Gold Sponsorship

Strong visibility across the event. No email placement and no Day 2 session, those stay exclusive to Premier.

Banner and logo placement

  • Registration page
  • A shared sponsor post on Instagram
  • Attendee portal profile with clickable links

Video and ads

  • A 30-second video ad on Day 1, or logo placement on the interlude video. Your choice.

Lead generation

  • Offer a giveaway item from your company, $100 minimum, as application-only
  • Our VIPs apply, and you receive the name and email of everyone who applied for your prize

Every donor and sponsor gets

Three things, minimum.

Whatever level you come in at, this is the floor.

A dedicated profile in the attendee portal

Your own page for you or your brand, with clickable links, live for as long as the portal stays open.

A shoutout on our socials

Everyone who donates is named and tagged in a sponsor thank-you post on our channels.

A mention during the live event

Named out loud on the day, while people are actually watching.

Donation guidelines

The fine print, kept short.

  • Giveaway Prizes are $100 to $499 per item at the professional stylist price point.
  • Lead Generation requires items of $150 or more, with a total reaching $500 or more.
  • Scholarships require a single item of $1,000 or more.
  • Digital swag is the exception. No minimum value there, though coupon codes must be at least 25% off.
  • Giveaway winners are drawn live and must be present. Lead Generation and Scholarship winners do not need to be present.
  • All donations must be 100% free for the attendee to claim, with the exception of coupon codes. It's fine if travel is on the stylist.
  • Sponsors ship prizes directly to the winner at their own cost.
  • Lead Generation and Scholarship lead lists go out within 30 days of the summit wrapping.

Hi, I'm Angie

Most would describe me as a dog mom, the fun aunt, salon owner, and industry educator. But in reality, I'm so much more than that. And so are you.

The beauty industry may put us in boxes, but that doesn't mean we have to stay there. I'm on a mission to unify the extension industry, and it starts with educators and companies just like you.

If you're reading this, I'd be honored for you to join me in creating an exceptional experience for The Extension Summit, where we choose community over competition.

Angie Mamone / Founder

Questions

What people ask before they get involved.

Do I have to be at the event live?

No. Your ad is pre-recorded and plays without you, and your portal profile runs on its own.

The only piece with a live option is the Premier Day 2 session on Tuesday, November 3rd, and even that can be pre-recorded if the date doesn't work for you.

How does the application-only lead generation actually work?

You offer an item from your company as a prize. Instead of a plain drawing, people apply to win it, which means they raise their hand and tell us they want what you sell.

Within 30 days of the summit wrapping you receive the name and email of everyone who applied for your specific prize. Not the whole attendee list, just the people who wanted your thing. Winners are drawn at random by my team and don't need to be present.

As a Community Sponsor, your applicants come from our VIP attendees. Gold and Premier sponsors unlock this at a lower donation threshold, and Premier opens applications to every attendee rather than VIPs only.

Do I have to buy a package to be involved?

Not at all. Donations, digital swag, and showcase products cost nothing beyond the item itself, and every one of them comes with a profile in the attendee portal, a tag in our group sponsor post, and a mention during the live event.

Plenty of brands start with a donation one year and move up to a package the next.

Can I do a package and a donation?

Yes, and most Premier and Gold sponsors do. The package handles visibility, the donation handles lead generation. They do different jobs.

Is Premier really exclusive to my category?

Yes. I won't take on another Premier Partner in your category for this summit.

Categories are first come, first served. If your brand spans more than one, you choose which one you want to claim.

To be clear about what that doesn't cover: I'll still accept donations and giveaway items from other brands, including ones like yours, because attendees deserve the fullest possible experience. Exclusivity applies to the Premier tier itself.

What do I need to send you, and when?

Depending on your level: your logo files, your video ad, the details for your portal profile, and any giveaway or swag items.

Everything has to be in well before I compile the event, so once you're confirmed I'll send you a checklist with the exact dates. Nothing is a surprise.

Who actually attends?

Extension artists and stylists who are serious about growing their extension business. Some are newer and building, some own salons and educate.

What they have in common is that they showed up to a virtual event to learn, which tells you something about how they spend their money.

Can I earn on tickets I refer?

Yes. Our affiliate program pays 40% commission on every ticket sold through your unique link. It's free to join and separate from anything else on this page, so you can donate, sponsor, and refer all at once if you want to.

You'll get graphics, swipe copy, and a suggested posting schedule. Over 75% of our 50+ guest speakers promote the event, so there's real traffic moving before you even start.

Create an affiliate account

I'm an educator, not a company. Can I still sponsor?

Absolutely. Stylists, artists, educators, brands, and companies are all welcome here. Educators often go the donation or digital swag route, since a course or class seat makes a great application-only prize.

Let's talk about what fits.

Fill out the interest form and tell me what you're thinking. Paid package, donation, swag, or you're not sure yet. I'll take it from there.
