What is Sponsorship?
“Sponsorship is a business relationship
between a provider of funds, resources or
services and an individual, event or
organisation which offers in return, rights
and association that may be used for
commercial advantage in return for the
sponsorship investment.” (BDS
sponsorship,2008)

Sponsorship
• Charitable donations - No commercial return is
expected although a company make use donations to be
seen as a good corporate citizen.
• Corporate patronage - A half-way house between
donations and sponsorship, patronage generally
provides only some recognition of a company’s activity
among a relatively small, though influential, group. It is
more common in the arts than sport.
• Corporate hospitality
• Public/community relations - Sponsorship of sport can
be used to meet objectives on a company’s social or
political agenda.

The 4 Key Principles of Sponsorship
Mutual benefit
Both parties should gain from
a sponsorship agreement.
Example - V.festival
Independence
It is important that the
independence is not
compromised by agreements
with external parties.
Equal partnership
Transparency
It is important both parties form
equal relationships with each other
as it shows a positive working
attitude for its membership and
target audience. An active working
partnership will enhance the
relationship for both parties, and
strengthen the task in hand.
It is important that any sponsorship
agreement with a company is not
seen as an endorsement of their
product or organisation. This will be
achieved by making the relationship
transparent to the public and staff in
both organisations.

While there is no one correct format for sponsorship proposals, the most
successful ones are customised to the sponsor. The sponsorship
program is designed to meet the specific marketing needs and
objectives of the targeted company.

Objective Setting I
• There are 4 main groups of
objectives that are used by the
marketing managers for a
successful sponsorship.
- Corporate Objective : This
aims at public awareness and
corporate image. This will
potentially lead to stronger
bonds with the clients and
potential and existing
customers.
- Brand / Product Objective:
This aims to increase sales
and brand awareness through
the current target market.

19
Objective Setting II
- Communications
Objective: This tends to be
short-term, only focusing on
the quantity of the sponsorship
and not quality. It is used to
generate publicity not solely at
the target market.
- Personal Objective: This
objective is to raise the
employee’s morale and
company loyalty, it is purely a
management interest.
