A Satisfied Sponsor is Not Necessarily a Loyal Sponsor

We know that the competition for sponsorship revenue is fierce - and securing renewals is even harder. The key to keeping them coming back is to effectively communicate their ROI.

Spotlight Creative, LLC creates new and innovative ways for our clients to communicate a return on investment to their sponsorship partners.

Knowing that their money has been well spent translates into a sponsor's on-going support - and that's the definition of "loyal" in our world.

Cheryl.

Great to know that Canuck fans are well represented in the Lone Star State. Is it true that everything is BIGGER in Texas?

Cheryl ~ hey, thanks for the note. Definitely a transition from basketball to hockey but being in the South beats the cold weather any day. There is more opportunity for growth with the Predators than I have had in the past.

Cheryl, Thanks for the note. We don't get a lot of feedback on our sponsor recaps, good or bad. This might be a bad sign I don't know. We are looking at moving to move to more of an online solution for lead generation and sponsor communication. Look forward to talking to you further. Mike
