Frequently asked questions
How does the tool identify compatible sponsors?
It compares the characteristics of your event (type, sector, number of attendees, budget) with the profile of the business sectors that typically sponsor similar events, and ranks those sectors by compatibility, explaining the reason for each match.
Does the tool provide contact details for potential sponsors?
No: the tool does not provide contact details. It identifies the business sectors best suited to sponsoring your event, so you know which companies to approach first.
How do I estimate the value of a sponsorship?
For each compatible sector the tool shows an estimated sponsorship value, based on the size and budget of your event. Use it as a reference when setting your sponsorship packages, and compare it with what similar events in your area ask for.
