No matter the industry, sponsorship can be your most powerful marketing tool.
Brands and properties may have similar and yet different sponsorship needs. Brands must continually connect with their customers and drive awareness. At the same time, properties increasingly rely on sponsorship to meet their revenue goals. Having an expert on your side who understands the issues from every perspective can make the difference in a successful sponsorship strategy.
At CHARGE, we have over 15 years of experience helping brands and properties skillfully unlock the power of sponsorship. We know the right way to support our clients in solving sponsorship challenges and aid them in making informed decisions.

Management
Much like a symphony conductor has to oversee every aspect of an orchestra to put on a great performance, a powerful sponsorship requires the same attention to detail. Some of our clients need help with the day-to-day of managing complicated sponsorship relationships. Our ability to take that responsibility and drive successful programs for our clients defines us.

Valuation
Understanding the true value of a sponsorship or a particular asset is paramount to creating skillfully crafted sponsorships. Brands and properties can struggle with answering the question, “What is “X” worth?”. Our processes for evaluating and putting real values towards packages will turn our clients into expert decision-makers and more effective negotiators.
