Sponsorship Forums South Africa

Difficulty getting sponsorship

I am in one of SA's fastest growing bands and we're looking for a financial partner. We've been to most of the big brands that usually get on board, but it seems that the wrong people are in charge of sponsorships and marketing these days.

Here's why I say that. This is what we offer...

We have a band vehicle that is on SA's roads every day of the year, we offer the vehicle for branding, so your company will be seen throughout SA on the side of a car. Being in an exciting band, we play festivals around the country and thousands of people see us perform. We wear t-shirts that shout our financial partner's name. We do at least six TV interviews per year and even then we can wear gear that reflects our financial partner's name. We do at least 12 printed media interviews, again reflecting a company name. Our cd's are sold to thousands of fans country-wide and our partner's logo can be printed onto the cd's.

Now, you have a mobile billboard, t-shirts, cd's, tv, radio, printed media... and companies are still hesitant...

Any ideas?
