Sponsorship Information

Get in front of an engaged audience of heart-led online offer creators

September 8–11, 2026

What the summit's all about

The Aligned AI Summit is back for its second year. It's for heart-led online offer creators who want to use AI in a way that saves them capacity, takes marketing off their plate, and still feels completely human.

It's about what's actually possible when people use AI on their own terms, not about doing more for the sake of it.

Over four days, 30+ creators will share real actionable and no-fluff workflows, and honest behind-the-scenes shares of what's working right now using AI to run their businesses and make sales.

Here's how it'll run:

See the speaker application page for full summit details. Speaker applications are now closed, but Gold sponsorship includes a live session in the summit lineup.

More info

The live session is hosted by Ruth during summit week and shaped around you and your offer. You can deliver your presentation live to the summit audience, or host a bonus Q&A, workshop or mini training. Format is entirely your choice. The session is added to the official summit schedule and promoted to all attendees.

If you'd like, the session can also be recorded and released as an episode of The Soulful Sales Show within 6 months of the summit, giving you additional long-term reach beyond the event itself.

We cannot guarantee any results. What follows is our best guess based on what happened in previous summits, not a promise.

Past Gold and Silver tier sponsors received an average of 550–750 link clicks to their free offers. Goody bag sponsors received 300+ average clicks per offer. Click rates vary depending on how well the offer is aligned to the audience.

For Gold sponsors, your freebie appears in every summit email throughout the event and in the daily summit schedule. For Silver, your freebie appears in the daily summit schedule and in the opening and closing emails. Paid-tier attendees keep access forever, so those placements keep working long after the summit ends. Gold sponsors also receive a solo email to Ruth's full list of 6,500 subscribers, sent within 6 months of the summit closing.

The most important factor is alignment. Choose something directly relevant to using AI for heart-led online offer creators that you know converts, ideally with a tripwire or upsell behind it.

After registering, all attendees (free and paid) are invited to sign up for offers as part of the summit goody bag. Think of it as a curated bundle given for free to attendees. It's more exclusive than a standard bundle because there's a limited number of offers and it's attached to a high-quality event people are already excited about.

Sponsor listings are featured at the top of the goody bag page, above the standard speaker listings. Your offer should appeal to heart-led online offer creators. AI-specific resources tend to do especially well, but anything genuinely useful to this audience is welcome.

  • Promotion will be my top priority for the 3 weeks leading up to September 8th
  • Organic promotion includes my 6,500-strong email list, Instagram, and Facebook group
  • Paid ads will run also throughout the promo period
  • Affiliates are invited to promote from August 24th
  • All 30+ speakers are required to promote twice, combined reach estimated at 200K+ people
  • Swipe copy is provided to all affiliates, speakers and sponsors: emails, social posts, graphics

I'm happy to put together a payment plan. All payments need to be completed by August 15th, when summit promotion to my email list begins. Just mention it in the application form.

Once you're signed up, I'll need your freebie link, logo, and any other details by August 11th so everything is ready before promotion begins. I'll send a simple form to collect it all, so there's nothing to prepare in advance.

As a Gold sponsor, your live session or presentation can optionally be repurposed and released as an episode of The Soulful Sales Show. The show has around 250K downloads over 165+ episodes and 103 five-star ratings. Entirely up to you whether you want to take this up.

Please note this does not include a separate interview but is deliberately repurposed from live session (or your presentation if you're a speaker too), whichever you prefer.

Fill in the form below and include your question. Packages are flexible too, so if you have ideas not listed here, just mention them and I'll see what we can do. Or email hi@ruthpoundwhite.com.
