How should we review the sponsorship and plan appropriate follow-up?

How should we review the sponsorship and plan appropriate follow-up?

1 · Notice the conversation

Colleague: What happened at the workshop?

You: Thirty people tried the tea, and six asked for more information.

Colleague: Why should we separate these results?

You: These are signs of interest, but they are not confirmed orders.

Colleague: What should the post-event review examine?

You: The post-event review should check the promised facilities and the quality of enquiries.

2 · Understand what each phrase does

sponsorship fit

a useful connection between an event and our purpose

The workshop has a clear sponsorship fit with our audience.

匹配要说明目标与受众,不是活动越大越适合。

deliverables

what each side agrees to provide

Those are the agreed sponsorship deliverables.

deliverables 应可核对;曝光和结果承诺要区分。

post-event review

check what the event actually achieved

We conduct a post-event review of the sponsorship.

参与人数、咨询和后续购买是不同结果,不能混作一个指标。

3 · Rehearse, then change the details

Thirty people tried the tea, and six asked for more information.

These are signs of interest, but they are not confirmed orders.

The post-event review should check the promised facilities and the quality of enquiries.

We can send the requested information to the six interested contacts.

Keep the purpose; change the person, document or time. A simple, accurate sentence is enough.
