How to Get Sponsors For Music Events

Need sponsors for music events?

The implementation of simple, but powerful strategies can not only transform your music business or project, but take you from "sponsorless" to several sponsorships, and in record time. There is no shortage of sponsors, to say the least.

There is a shortage of sponsor-seekers who have the skills and expertise to compellingly communicate their value to this group.

Literally tens of thousands of individuals, performing artists, authors, small businesses, and organizations are asking, "How do I get a sponsor?" And, understandably so; complementary capital is an invaluable resource to launch or enhance your music business or project.

The How to Get Sponsors e-Course not only thoroughly addresses the question, but it does so in a manner where the complex is made simple.

The program was created for anyone who has always wanted to be sponsored, but didn't know where, or how to start. The strategies in this course can be used for tours, tournaments, books, concerts, surgeries, equipment needs, fundraisers, sport teams, corporate events for clients, the arts, new business openings, seminars, etc.

Sponsorships have proven to be the financial solution for many events and projects which were short on capital. That's because corporations and companies are desperate for individuals who can help get their name out into the community and they'll sign hefty checks with your name on it if you can produce results.

The How to Get Sponsors e-Course is a great opportunity for individuals world-wide to learn first-hand about the most effective strategies and techniques involved in strategically securing sponsors for your music. It provides an overview of the sponsorship process and includes tips used for quickly receiving checks in the mail in as little as three days.

Students who took this course have used the information to obtain sponsorship dollars and in-kind services from Pepsi-Cola, McDonalds, Fidelity Investments, AAA, Coors Light, Qwest, Pink Parties and Helping Hands, Staples, Verizon Wireless, Jones Assisted Living, Electric Express, Curves, Hunter Steak House, Winter Chevrolet, Myles W. Miller, Terminix, Jacqueline Taylor Adams, Bank of America, and McDowell Travel.

The comprehensive course is taught over two weeks and consists of ten, in-depth and fast-moving lessons. Students have access to telephonic recordings of insider tips and expert advice, as well as five templates for scoring tens of thousands of sponsor dollars.

After identifying prospects to sponsor your concert, it's time to hone in on the important elements for your initial contact. The key is to connect with the mindset and goals of your prospective sponsor. You can best do this by gaining a thorough understanding of the organization so you have an idea of the best type of contribution to ask for.

Be sure to answer their unasked question: "What's in it for me?" Your sponsors truly want to know; tell them. If you don't do that, you'll lose them before you have them. You'll briefly do this in your initial contact, then later in your written proposal.

Sponsorship Proposals Include a Solid Case for Support

The secret to securing sponsorships for concerts through your verbal and written communications is outlined in why you are saying what you do. To succeed, you must state your case for why a sponsor should support you. Your case for support is a viable. An excellent one will have your sponsor entering a partnership today. An effective case statement satisfies three criteria. It must be clear, credible and compelling.

Include leverage in your letter. For example, if you will be approaching Home Depot, communicating that the sponsorship will enhance their image in the community's eyes may not be a strong enough reason. But if you share that McDonald's has signed with you as well (and only if McDonald's sign with you as well), then a desired association is created and Home Depot is more apt to sign.
