I was trying everything I heard to try…speaking, networking, my circle of influence. All the usual angles. While I got traction it still felt like picking up a few people at a time. I knew there must be a faster way. When I found that way… for me, everything changed.

I sponsored a speaking spot at my mentor’s event. Yep, I paid to speak on his stage.

Why?
An opportunity to get in front of 185 ideal clients all at once. (That I knew were not tire-kickers. They had paid to be there.)speech

How much?
$50,000. Yep. You heard me right.

What?
Knowing what I know now…I would have paid triple. This is called sponsorship.

Nothing, simply nothing, beats being able to be plopped down smack dab in the middle of a pool of your people. It is easy. It is comfortable. It is exciting… because you are surrounded by potential. And it allows you to get traction, get fast results, and be associated with other successful leaders in your field. Sponsorships are one of the fastest ways to grow your business and focus your energy.

At my event this year we will have over 45 sponsors that are giving back to my attendees. They have different offers, different abilities, and different services. It truly is a win-win. My attendees are served in a huge way and my sponsors get to connect with ideal clients. If you are looking for a fast track to get your business going… look to sponsorship. Here are a few tips to make the most out of it:

1) Know the event and the audience- make certain they are your ideal clients and need what you have to offer.

2) Have something to take on the road- Have a brand that can be well represented in signage, materials, and messaging. A confusing booth or experience is a lost opportunity.

3) Leads not clients- remember that sponsor opportunities are about getting leads and contacts. Make sure to have a solid follow up plan. Most of your conversions will come in the follow up.

4) Find the right level for you- not everyone needs a $50,000 speaking spot. Starting out with a table/booth or being on a panel might be the perfect opportunity. Evaluate the right entry point for where you are in business.

5) Start early- I have sponsorships, speaking, and events planned over a year in advance. I suggest you do the same. If you can plan for a year with several sponsorships you can better plan your cash flow, branding, and promotion.

Yes! We are already taking an interest list for Be the Change 2013. We have people already signing up…check out the info at www.bethechangeeventsponsor.com and then shoot us an email at support@suzanneevans.org to get on the 2013 list! We would love to have YOU sponsor with us.

Here I am whipping up a Hell Yeah! smoothie for my team the day after Be The Change. There is nothing I love more then hanging out with my team. They are all extraordinary and the work they do for me is unbelievable.
I am so thankful to have such amazing support. 

Having a room filled with over 600 entrepreneurs is not easy work, but it’s worth every minute when you see how their lives have changed and knowing their business will never be the same again.

I am also extraordinarily proud of all our new 10K club members, who took the opportunity to be extraordinary. Are you being extraordinary in your life and in your business? If not or your not sure join us once more for our one of our most powerful sessions at Be The Change to get a peek at what extraordinary means.

Wishing you an extraordinary week!
