Read about some great techniques and opportunities for sponsorships, volunteers, marketing and event date selection. A must read for event planners.

1. When sourcing donors to underwrite some of the event costs or sponsorship’s, the first type of sponsorship that comes to mind for most of us is the  Business sponsorship… think beyond business… why not ask for family sponsorships? Grandparent sponsorships? Many families  would love to have their name recognized for sponsoring a portion of the event (a bounce house, a caricature artist, facepainter) . Provide recognition for that individual, family or business with a great sign that celebrates their generosity.
2. Hold your event the day before Friday!… that’s right plan your event for a THURSDAY night. The truth is venues will have more availability and more room for price negotiations on a Thursday. Your event will likely have less of a chance of competing with other events on a Thursday. The weekends are priceless, Families are busy, weekends are consumed with youth activities and sports. Your guests will be appreciative that you kept their weekend free.
3. Create a website dedicated to your event. Take the extra time to name the event, craft a logo, and create a tagline. Brand your event. Inform, educate, and communicate your story and message. What are you raising the funds for? Remain consistent with your brand and message throughout all social media platforms and marketing materials.
4. Volunteers! Create a committee that has a primary focus on being dedicated to volunteer recruitment, organization and execution. Sometimes it can be hard to get volunteers. Reach out to organizations who need service hours, they would be  happy to partner with your organization to do great things while earning service hours.
