FAQ

Good to know

How long does a sponsorship last?

Each season lasts 6 months and includes the high season in Los Cabos. Founding sponsors have the first right to renew at the same price for the next season.

What is Must Do Magazine?

A bimonthly digital magazine in English and Spanish with stories, guides, interviews and the best of each season in Los Cabos. Each season includes 3 issues, shared on the website, the newsletter and social media.

Does a sponsorship improve my rating on the guide?

No. Ratings and the “Top of the Marina” ranking come only from Google. Sponsors get visibility, content and placement, never a better rating.

Do I need a restaurant or venue to sponsor?

No. Hotels, real estate, spirits, services and brands of any kind can sponsor. Venue owners also get a featured listing.

How do influencer activations work?

We match your brand with local creators from our network, agree on the content and coordinate the visit. Creators label all sponsored content as required by each platform.

What is the difference between a sponsorship and a featured listing?

A featured listing is a monthly plan for venues that want priority placement in the guide. A sponsorship is a 6-month partnership paid upfront: your brand appears across the whole platform (magazine, newsletter, social, creators, podcast and events), and Gold and Platinum VIP include the featured listing.

Can I combine a sponsorship with an advertising plan?

Yes. Sponsorships can be combined with the plans on our Advertise page and with any service from Big Wave Production Studio.
