No-one can guarantee sponsorship of their charity or charity event. There are over 20,000 charities in Scotland all vying for support. Many write to companies hoping that the good work which the charity does will induce support. Sometimes it will. But usually not.
| A company will always ask itself ( if not ask you!) “why should I support this event?” Do you have an answer? |
However there are reasons why a company might want or not want to support you and we would hope to ensure that you give yourself or your event the best opportunity to attract sponsors.
A company will always ask itself – if not ask you! – “why should I support this event?” Do you have an answer?
There are ways to ensure companies are interested in you. Just for example…
- You can seek sponsorship for your website, if you are able to show that the website is frequently visited. So why might people wish to visit?
- You can show sponsors what benefit arises from becoming involved in your events. Free advertisement, name association with the brochure, table names, wine, etc
- You can stay in touch by an easily organised and inexpensive newsletter
- Our Discreet Auction format is an opportunity to seek support as is the raffle set up you choose to apply. Given brand exposure, sponsors will provide prizes at relatively little cost to you, by way of products or services. These have value when utilised in the right way.
