Client:
A leading entertainment provider specializing in event marketing and live performance production
Challenge: No Dedicated Sponsorship Sales Leader
This entertainment company had a strong track record of curating unforgettable live experiences, but when it came to securing sponsorship revenue, they faced a significant challenge:
- No dedicated sponsorship sales leader meant a lack of time, resources, and expertise to drive sponsorship deals.
- Limited business development capacity hindered their ability to tap into available sponsorship funds.
- Without a structured approach, they were missing key partnership opportunities that could maximize revenue for their annual productions.
Recognizing the need for a proactive, strategic approach to sponsorship sales, they turned to Catapult to drive results.
