At this point we are seeking an agency partner with international appeal skilled in the PR, Advertising and Web Design arenas to help add creativity and sophistication to our core content as we approach our sponsors.

Such an agency partner would benefit from the opportunity to showcase their talent to our sponsor candidates in terms of solicitation packaging. It would also afford them the platform to demonstrate their ability to handle global PR work through an existing or project developed network of national PR contacts through actual event driven PR projects as well as joint sponsor PR conferences/events.

Ideally we would also like our agency partner to evolve the event web site into a more commercial site and to take on the management of that site until such time a web master is on board which will be tied to sponsor funding.

All agency work would be billable and is estimated at around $50k total for the sponsor solicitation package /presentation work and $10K for web site redesign and temporary management. Additional event PR and advertising work would be scoped out and budgeted based on sponsorship funding response.

Worst case scenario, the agency will have made introductions and established contacts in 8-36 major global companies with little more than a cold call solicitation investment. A more likely scenario is that the agency will have a self liquidating promotion in that they will have all the benefit from the product showcasing and introductions and be paid for it as well.
