Our clubs and societies have over 1,000 members, and our West London Varsity event in which we compete against Brunel University is becoming bigger and better every year.

We want to make sure you get the best deal possible when you work with SMSU. For this reason we’ve come up with a customisable package that can include any of the methods of advertising listed below. For example, if you require a video we are able to offer you 4 of the options below, or alternatively 6 of them if you don’t. If you would like more than this, then let us know and we’ll see what we can do. The possibilities for sponsorships include: • Your name on event wristbands, t-shirts and event publicity • 3 sponsored Facebook posts • A video advertising your product which ties into our event (ask for examples this may require an extra fee if too many other options are used) • 2 solus mailouts to our 6,000 student database (you would need to create the HTMLemail) • A stall on campus on the day of the event • Halls drops (your flyers delivered to 800 student letterboxes) • Your banner hung behind our stage (where possible, you would need to supply this) • A chance to speak direct to all students attending the event on-stage over our PA system (where possible) • Your name and a link on the ‘SMSU Recommends’ section of our website

We would request that you provide us with a full HTML email for this option.

We have numerous displays for posters. We can provide one company with the following spaces for ad campaigns during Welcome Fortnight- we can only offer one of these packages, as we need space for our own event publicity at this time. The 10 x A3 posters will be placed on the staircase to the Union, which experiences a high footfall during Welcome Fortnight. The A1 poster will be placed in the Shannon Corridor, Corrido which is one of the busiest areas on campus at any time of year.

We want to work with companies that genuinely benefit our students and enrich their lives with their commercial offerings, and we think that our students will bring a great deal to your businesses in return. Because of this, we pledge to do all that is reasonably possible to ensure that every business partnership we have is a successful one. It’s in both of our interests to make sure that our relationships are fruitful! With this in mind, we hope that you’ll be as dedicated to your campaigns as we are - in the past, we’ve found the best relationships and results have come from the most hands-on companies.
