This **one step **creates exponential exposure for your presenting sponsor.   - Direct visitors to your sponsor's social media channels.  Use your website content to encourage visitors to follow your sponsors.    If you can effectively deliver followership to your sponsors through your event, you bring a tangible ROI to that sponsor.   **Leverage the Ticketing / Registration Process for Sponsors** Include sponsor logos or an offer on your event ticket.   Sponsors love nothing more than to see hundreds of people walk through the door with a piece of paper and their logo emblazoned across it (or better yet an OFFER that encourages guest to use that sponsor). See example ticket with sponsor recognition below. ![Ticket w sponsors](https://blog.swellfundraising.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Ticket%20w%20sponsors.jpg?width=493&name=Ticket%20w%20sponsors.jpg) - Don't Forget the Ticket email.  Every ticket/registration results in an email or text to the guest.   Include your sponsors in that email response. **Utilize Social Media Channels for Exposure** - Follow your sponsors! (Bonus: Get your board to follow your sponsors) - Create header images for Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn that include your event AND leading sponsors.    Distribute this header image to your board, event committee and any that are closeenough to consider changing their cover images in advance of an event. (Need help creating header images -- check out [Canva](https://www.canva.com/create-a-design)).  - Cross post and celebrate the work of your sponsors.  Create online connections actively. Events with a strong online presence can reach FAR beyond those who actually attend.  For example, a dinner event of 300 guests created the following tangible online activity:  26,000+ unique site visits; 65K+ 28-day Facebook reach; 110 twitter mentions; and increased engagement scores for sponsors and the nonprofit organization.      Offering this type of reach and data for event sponsors helps to ensure your event sponsors stay and grow with you.
