Work with Zzeem to Generate Revenue From Sponsorship

Sponsorship is a great source of non-dues revenue. Whether you’re starting a sponsorship program for the first time, or have a long history of sponsor partnerships, Zzeem has the knowledge and experience to create a unique package of strategies to suit your goals and achieve your revenue targets.

To give you an idea of our services, we’ve put together a list of the kind of Zzeem sponsorship tools we’ve created for other industry and professional associations. It’s just a guideline, because neither the intent nor the result of our services is ever the same twice. Every membership organization has a different set of needs. Come to us for a single service or a cost-effective package of complementary strategies. The choice is yours.

Sponsorship Program Support System

Sponsorship Offering Proposal

This is a document that you can use to market your membership organization to sponsor candidates. This summary of your sponsorship offering includes details of the value of your offering, the cost to the sponsor and the terms of engagement.

Marketing Execution System

This is a structured, professional set of marketing and delivery procedures to attract and retain your sponsors. Zzeem has developed a strategic system that generates a chronological activity list for use by all team members involved in the sponsorship marketing process. This ensures that all staff can collaborate effectively, are motivated to deliver results and are accountable for their actions.

Sponsorship Policies and Procedures

Zzeem will provide you with a Sponsorship Manual that includes a statement of the organizational policies governing your sponsorship offering, and the procedures that make up the sponsor partnership process. This will ensure adherence to existing organizational policies, the mission of the organization, consistency across the organizational spectrum and sufficient flexibility to provide for innovation and improvement.

This comprehensive manual also contains a structured, professional set of marketing and delivery procedures.

Zzeem Methodology

Prior to your project, we will provide you with a fixed-price proposal that clearly specifies deliverables, roles and responsibilities, work plan and fees. If you wish to proceed with the project, we will provide a contract and non-disclosure agreement.

During the project, we use a multi-phase approach, with each segment building on the previous one. In each phase, following interviews with informants, we create a draft of the deliverables for review, revisions and sign-off by you. We then produce the final version of the deliverable and move to the next phase once you are completely happy with the outcome of the current one. This provides a risk-free assurance that your needs for the project will be met.
