How do I set up a Sponsorship?

InfoSponsorships give you the option to create a group that includes individual sponsorship levels (i.e. Gold, Silver, and Bronze) that can be assigned event tickets, items, or separate benefits. Similar to how our packages function, each Sponsorship level provides your customer with customized perks they can redeem.



Step 1: Create Your Sponsorship Group

1. Under the BOX OFFICE header on the left side menu, click FUNDRAISING SUITE, then click SPONSORSHIPS. 

            










2. Click the ADD NEW SPONSORSHIP button. 


3. In this screen, fill out all necessary information, then click SUBMIT. 
      Name, Abbreviation, Description, and an Image are required. 


Step 2 (Optional): Create Your Benefits

If you won't just be offering an Event, Item, or Donation Campaign as your perks, you can add an optional benefit.

(Benefits are used to add additional value to a sponsorship. This option should be reserved for experiences fulfilled outside the system, that do not require a purchase, voucher, or ticket receipt. Benefits are listed in the sponsorship and are tracked only in the redemption reports. Examples of benefits: Preferred Parking, Access to VIP Lounge, Curtain Speech Shoutout, Cast Meet and Greet, Post Show Talkbacks, etc.)

1. Under the BOX OFFICE header on the left side menu, click FUNDRAISING SUITE, then click BENEFITS. 


2. Type in your Benefit name and click CREATE BENEFIT button. Repeat as needed.
 
 

Step 3: Create Your Individual Sponsorship Levels

1. Navigate to VIEW ALL SPONSORSHIPS to view all your Sponsorship Groups. 
2. Click VIEW on the sponsorship group you'd like to add to. 


3. Click ADD NEW LEVEL 
This final step functions similar to setting up Packages in our system.
You will need to fill out all necessary details for each Sponsorship level that you are creating (i.e. Gold, Silver, Bronze, etc.):


1. Fill out General Information: Name, Abbreviation, Description, Max Quantity to sell, and select an image.



2. Select the Sponorship Type: Standard or Flex
If you are creating a Standard Package, you can include events, items, and donations to donation campaigns. Flex Packages can only include events.

3. Add your options: Event tickets, items, donation campaigns, or benefits.


4. Pricing Options: Set your price, and opt to add on a Flex Fee.


5. Revenue Distribution: To do distribute package revenue, opt for either Even Split (divides the price evenly across contents) or Manual Split (determine the individual value per package content).  


6. Ticket Specifications: Add a name and price to appear on your Sponsorship Voucher.
You can also lock any event ticket to specific seating chart areas as needed.

6. Click Submit when finished, and repeat as necessary to finish your Sponsorship Group.


Closing Your Sponsorship
When sales are complete, simply use the "Close Sponsorship" button in the Sponsorship group to close out your sales.
