BENEFITS OF BEING A SPONSOR

Events can provide companies with incredible opportunities to market their brand, reach new customers, improve their public perception and increase their sales. Through business sponsorship, you can provide attendees with a unique experience that fosters trust and credibility.

What is event sponsorship?

A business sponsorship is an organisation’s support of an event. Organisations use sponsorships as a marketing tool so that they can gain a competitive advantage and reach business goals. Sponsorship gives companies invaluable exposure by allowing them to reach and connect with quality audiences, which often results in business growth.

BENEFITS OF SPONSORING EVENTS

Becoming a sponsor has a number of advantages including:

Increase return on investment

Though they usually require some financial commitment, sponsorships provide businesses with excellent exposure, which typically results in a great return on investment (ROI). Sponsorship roles are usually negotiable, meaning you can work out an agreement that gives your company the level of exposure you’re hoping for.

Build business relationships

Sponsoring an event can help your company make connections with non-competing businesses, giving you opportunities for collaboration in the future.

Expand content strategy

Sponsorships can provide a great source of new material for a company’s content strategy. By promoting your involvement in an event or activity, you can drive traffic from the event and increase your engagement. A great way to do this is by creating content themes and hashtags.

Generate leads

Brand loyalty is largely dependent on emotional connections. By sponsoring events, you can gain exposure to prospective customers and highlight the human side of your company. Additionally, when a representative of your company attends the events you sponsor, you can learn valuable information about your customers, develop a mailing list and promote your services or products.

Boost brand visibility

Sponsorships can increase brand recognition before, during and after the actual event by giving your company exposure to new audiences. This often happens through mentions in the press or social media and event advertising. You can take advantage of this exposure by offering attendees free branded materials through promotional giveaways.

Showcase a service or product

Events provide a great setting for launching feature updates or new products. You can increase your traffic by promoting launches and other incentives, like giveaways, on social media before the event.

Gain a competitive advantage

When you sponsor an event, you automatically gain an advantage over your absent direct competitors.

Interact with prospects

In-person interactions can help you develop a connection between your company and its target audience. Engage with prospective customers by providing demos or branded merchandise.
