DESCRIPTION: Establishing a sponsorship program requires strategic thinking and planning to avoid the nasty pitfalls that could cost your organization lost dollars and reputation. In this program, Marion Grobb Finkelstein helps you zoom your sponsorship learning curve and build your program on solid ground as she shares her step-by-step “Sponsorship PITCH System™”.
This systematic approach ensures that all the bases are covered, that you minimize the strike-outs that most programs encounter and that you hit a home-run attracting and keeping your sponsors. If you’re launching a Sponsorship program and not sure how or where to start, or if you want to fine-tune your existing program, this “Sponsorship PITCH system™ will give you a roadmap to build your program on proven practices.
And, you’re learning from someone who literally “wrote the book” on Sponsorship — as Director Communication of the “Support Our Troops” federal institution, Marion wrote the national “Sponsorship and Donation Policy” to support the Morale and Welfare programs for the Canadian Forces (CF) members and their families. In addition, she developed and delivered the accompanying national Sponsorship and Donation certification program implemented at CF Bases across Canada.
