The Fire Island 50/50 seeks matching sponsorship agreements from various, non-competitive corporations (i.e., exclusive food market, wine & spirits, fashion designer/retailer, home furnishings, sports & outdoor equipment, boat & yacht manufacturers, mobile phone providers, automobile manufactures, airlines, hotels, jewelers, et cetera).
The sponsorship challenge agreements are framed in terms similar to online advertising expenditure proposals, correlating the value and marketing potential each edition of The Fire Island 50/50’s delivers directly to this affluent, highly desirable audience.
Corporations will challenge and reward The Fire Island 50/50 with matching monies raised by subscription sales dollar for dollar. The sponsorship challenge “grant” agreements will stipulate that in order to receive the matching funds, The Fire Island 50/50 must provide proof of such fundraising by an independent auditor to verify monies raised and donated.
The excitement of the matching sponsorship challenges will be conveyed to all potential subscribers, serving to lend power and credibility to The Fire Island 50/50’s mission. In return, corporate sponsors will gain valuable brand awareness and increased customer loyalty during the point of purchase, with each delivered eNewsletter, at special events, and on the eNewsletter website.
