EVENT SPONSORSHIP DECK OUTLINE: What should be included in your proposal when seeking sponsorship.

Posted on by
Reply

This is a basic outline of suggested information that should be included in your presentation deck/proposal when seeking event sponsorship. ***Please advise this blog post is based off my professional experience when seeking sponsorships. It does not guarantee that you will secure sponsorship***

Title Page (Slide 1)
 Event Sponsorship Proposal
Name of the Event
Event Date

About Your Organization (Slide 2)
Mission, vision, programs, services
Paragraph addresses your experience/expertise and credibility in organizing successful events

Event Information (Slide 3)
Event Background
Main purpose of the event
What the event is (tournament, fundraiser, party etc.)
History
Why does this event exist?
How did it start?
Who started the event?
Is it the first year for the event or is it an annual event?

Also include the following:

Name of Event
Date of Event
Time of Event
Who is expected to attend the event/
Include approximate number of guests

Event Objectives/Demographics (Slide 4)
What does this event need to achieve to be successful
What are the goals of the current year (include previous goals if applicable)
Ensure, where possible – the objectives are measurable (so you can measure success or
lack thereof)

• Activities
What activities are planned for the event?
What will people likely be doing?

Reach and Target Audience (1/4 page)
Explain who will participate in event
Psychographic/Demographic information – the more detailed, the better
Number of expected attendees
Other companies that are involved
Will there be any National /Local media coverage? Live stream opportunities

Benefits to the Sponsor (3 Slides: 5, 6, 7)
1. Detail the various levels of sponsorship
2. Marketing benefits & opportunities for each level
3. Sponsorship fee associated with each level
4. Although, your initial deck will be universal, once you have a lead from a potential sponsor, I would recommend offering a tailored deck to meet their business objectives. Below are some suggestions when researching the company goals.
**Identify why you believe this company would benefit by sponsoring your event/organization
** Does the sponsor shares the same target audience as your event/organization
** Is their business operations in the same city
** Is the company seeking a positive public perception by attaching itself to a community initiative

Opportunity (Slide 8)

***This is the slide you want to add any bells and whistles to. As the reader is coming to an end of the presentation and deciding if your event would be a good fit, this slide entices them to a probable yes.

Any media you have negotiated
Summarize any and all important benefits to the sponsor
Explain how you will identify the success of the event
Number of participants, dollars raised, new supporters, media awareness, etc

Contact Information (Slide 9)

Name (first and last)o Title
Organization
Social Media Handles (make sure they’re linked)
Phone Number
Email Address
Website Address

Additional Suggestions
• Use bullet points and minimal wording as possible (don’t lose your readers attention with some much verbiage)
• Use visuals!!! This keeps your reader engaged
• (If not, a first time event) Implement photos from past events – audiences, other sponsors, signage, setups, etc.
• Logo’s; include your logo on every page. If you can incorporate the company’s logo at some point it may be worthwhile, that way you can physically demonstrate the alignment between your organization and theirs
• Research companies philanthropic history; tap into their website, press writeups, ad placements, and any other industry-specific resources.
• Focus most of your proposal on the benefits to the potential sponsors

(Houston, TX – May 15th, 2020) Thomas Fields, Founder & C.E.O. of GRIND Inc., a sports technology and athletic equipment provider, recently announced the launch of “GRIND Machine”, the world’s first portable basketball shooting machine designed to enhance independent drill training- anywhere and anytime.


IMG_2032


 


The revolutionary shooting machine has been proven to be effective in improving players’ catch & shoot efficiency, footwork, balance, explosion and follow through, while increasing player creativity & basketball IQ.

GRIND Machine allows the player to shoot up to 500 shots an hour by capturing rebounds and automatically passing the ball back to the player at any given spot on the court- including the NCAA 3pt regulation range. GRIND Basketball is equipped with a 12-foot net around the rim that strategically forces players to put more of an arch on their shot, translating to a higher percentage of made shots. This technique in repetition aims to increase muscle memory.


Fields believes this might be the most innovative, yet ideal shooting machine ever designed – “You practice ten times more efficiently using the shooting machine, so it was important to design this for practical use. I wanted to build something that basketball players, coaches, and trainers would love, because they could use it wherever and whenever.” said (Thomas Fields, Founder/Ceo of GRIND).


IMG_2723


Fully furnished, GRIND Machine seamlessly folds into a 4’x2’ weather-protective duffle bag, equipped with durable wheels for relaxed transportation.


 


Key Features:

● Portability at 48” L x 22” W x 22” H

● Weight: 100Ibs (equipped with wheels to easily transport)

● 500 shots an hour

● Manual 5 spot shooting

● Affordable (lowest market price with payment plan options)

● One-year complimentary warranty


IMG_3313


Training Benefits:

GRIND has a NO STANDING RULE, the GRIND Machine uses one ball and forces players to work hard and smart, simultaneously.

● Move without the ball

● Catch and attack

● Make shots under fatigue

● Perfect the footwork

GRIND Machine is now available for pre-orders for delivery November, 2020. For more information, please visit GrindBasketball.com.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE


 


THE FREDDY CAIN SHOW TO PREMIERE ON THE CW33 TELEVISON NETWORK


IMG_9553


The red-carpet, Gold Mic ™, entertainment series, “THE FREDDY CAIN SHOW” announces deal to premiere on the CW33 Television Network every Saturday, beginning October 19th, 2019


IMG_9756


(DALLAS, TX, October 18th) The Freddy Cain Show, hosted by the witty, engaging creative, Freddy Cain, announced today a deal with the hit television network, CW33. “The Freddy Cain Show” is an entertainment series based out of Dallas, TX,  covering red-carpet events, community human interests, and most known for securing compelling interviews with celebrities such as Kanye West, Teddy Riley, Snoop Dogg, Jerry Jones, Akon, Chris Tucker, Bobby Brown, and Nancy Lieberman, just to name a few. The show will premiere every Saturday, at 12:00PM CST, beginning this Saturday, October 19th, with the first episode featuring IBF Welterweight World boxing champ and Dallas native, Errol Spence Jr.


“I’m opening up a lane in Dallas that should have been done a long time ago. There is so much that goes on in the City of Dallas that everyone needs to know about.” said creative producer and host, Freddy Cain. “Featuring Errol Spence Jr. for our first episode made sense to me, since we took the city to Hollywood. He’s a champion, and I’m a champion and we’re both willing to take the hits for success. I want this to resonate with our viewers.”


IMG_9751
Freddy Cain and Teddy Riley -“King of New Jack Swing”


 


In 2009, after 5 years of hosting red carpet events, Cain had a vision to produce his own TV show. While scoping The Green Sheet Publication for ideas, he came across an ad for a play “South of Where We Live” showing at The Jr. Black Academy of Arts & Letter. Cain attended the play and the casting party afterward, and that is when the ‘The Freddy Cain Show’ came into fruition.


“I met Carl Payne, “Cole” from Martin. When I interviewed him, I asked him to do the famous bird call. When he did…I looked behind Carl and the entire cast was lined up waiting for interviews; that’s when a light popped on.” said Cain.


Gearing up for the big screen, the red-carpet host and Gold Mic™ superstar Cain, hired recognized entertainment production company, SoloTV Productions, who will be responsible for curating the unique, innovative content that captures the viewers’ attention, along with PR Firm, Nina Zavala Group, and infamous television agent, Joe Courrege.
