The content in this book works!

The content in this book works! Applying the author's strategies, we have secured a number of partnerships and sponsors for our tours and projects. Reality Check is a step by step carefully explaining the world of sponsorship from who to contact, how to contact sponsors, what to say in discovery calls, building relationships that last, and how to build innovative customized effective sponsorship programs. I have referred to this book so many times the pages are already worn. This book also identifies the common mistakes that properties and brands make, supported by strategies to succeed. The authors provide templates, checklists and sample scripts which help the reader step into action which acts as a roadmap to help readers navigate through the world of sponsorship.

This book demystifies sponsorship

This book demystifies sponsorship with clear descriptions of what each party’s legitimate expectations should be, and how to go about realizing those expectations, from first thoughts about possibilities through to the realization of the project and determining the benefits derived. Brent Barootes can write authoritatively about these matters because he has helped many organizations mount successful campaigns, as is demonstrated throughout the material by the liberal use of examples to illustrate the points being made.

Brent has taught us how to create value for our sponsors

Brent has taught us how to create value for our sponsors in ways that we never imagined, and to identify inventory we didn’t even realize was!
