Seeking corporate sponsorships can be an overwhelming process. But, it is vital for any nonprofits success. When Prince, Hinds, Richard and Montgomery began studying how this processes worked many things began clear. Nonprofits must be engaged in their community to be on the radar of local corporations. They must always be on the lookout to educate the community and their target market on their mission and the benefits of the nonprofit. Over the past semester, we conducted extensive secondary research to understand the best process of seeking corporate sponsorships. In addition, we also conducted interviews with local nonprofit developers to gauge how organizations in the area fundraise. All of these insights let us to develop a thoughtful and tactful campaign for UNITY.

On the following pages, we present the strategies and executions that will be effective increasing corporate sponsorships and fundraising for UNITY. Our campaign is a two-part process designed to increase awareness and sponsorships amongst the community and local corporations. This campaign can be emulated in multiple communities and will reinforce UNITY’s core values. Prince, Hinds, Richard and Montgomery is confident that implementing this campaign will increase UNITY’s fundraising and corporate sponsorships.

Motivations to give to a non-profit• Employee Recruitment: Corporations, law firms, universities and more often find that potential employees want to work with an engaged company.

• Philanthropic nature: fulfills humans need to serve.

• Mandated Contributions: some corporations may be required to donate a certain amount a year.

Growing Your Small Business through Sponsorships & Promotional Giveaway’s: By: Elyse Cabral• The ideal situation is to supply or assist with supplying promotional sports products that are branded with the your logo and other important contact details as these are the items that they players will be wearing each week

• By using sponsorships as a way to grow your business not only will your new company be doing a great deed in providing much needed sponsorship to local clubs and teams but the promotional marketing will work for your company throughout the whole sporting season.

Getting Corporate Sponsorships: By: Michael Gerber• Tell him or her that it is their kind of leadership that most importantly represents the stories your customer/clients need to hear. Book an appointment and the rest will come.

ResearchSecuring Corporate Sponsors: By: Kyle Zimmer• Don’t Talk to Strangers: Get to know the company/industry. Before the first interaction, do your homework regarding the company and their industry. What are their major business goals? How successful have they been? What is their footprint geographically? Who are their competitors? What group constitutes their most important demographic?

• Keep Your Eyes on the Prize. Although your ability to integrate the corporate partner’s business into the initiative is essential to success, the reverse is not true. Your mission is your job – not theirs. For this reason, when you design a partnership, you must be as clear about what your organization needs from the transaction as you are about your assets. Budgets must compensate your organization for the value you are bringing to the table – and more – to enable you to further your goals.

• Be About Business. If nonprofits want to be treated like business partners, we have to maintain the highest professional business standards in our relationships and set new records in customer service. Treat the corporate partner as a customer whose best interests are your own, worry about the details (NO TYPOS!) and check in regularly for feedback – both positive and negative.

• Innovating the Marriage. Above all, we have to be fearlessly innovative as we encourage this marriage of private and social sector players. Be resourceful. Great ideas don’t always have big price tags.

Corporate Sponsorship Toolkit: By: Council of Nonprofits Nonprofits should consider these “readiness” factors before engaging in corporate sponsorship relationship.

Have you:1. Identified the value proposition that will attract a business to sponsor your nonprofit’s mission or special event? (what will meet the business needs of the sponsor?)2. Defined what “success will look like” for the nonprofit?3. Documented the expectations for deliverables in writing? (Most successful sponsorships are based on a written sponsorship agreement)4. Determined the accounting and tax implications of the transaction with the sponsor and structured the sponsorship accordingly?

• Non-Profit Certified

• National Organization

• Youth Education based

• Youth Volunteers

• Create unique experiences for youth of Native American descent

• Create Awareness of UNITY within OKC and nationally

• Weak Brand Identity

• Inability to communicate effectively against common misconceptions

• Needs internal work in organization, education, marketing, advertising, financial

• Unprofessional e-mails

• Weak value in OKC

• No transportation for student councils in OKC

• No Indian Reservations in Oklahoma

• Common misconceptions: Native Americans receive money from casinos and leading tribes

• Preconceived Notions: lawsuits between state and Tribes not affiliated with UNITY or Native American youth potentially leads Corporations to not want to tarnish their name with relation to a Native American group.

• Other youth based not for profit organizations who are also seeking money

• Economic downturn resulting in less money to be given by Corporations

Some of these organizations that are in direct competition with UNITY are:

• Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Greater Oklahoma City• Boys & Girls Club of Oklahoma County• Camp Fire USA• Salvation Army Boys and Girls Club of Oklahoma City• YMCA of Greater Oklahoma City• Youth Services for Oklahoma County

Each of these prominent Oklahoma City organizations are in direct competition for potential funds from businesses in the region. Each of these organizations specifically serves local youth.

463 Number of nonprofit’s who are members of the Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits – UNITY is not listed.

Prince, Hinds, Richards & Montgomery concluded through both primary and secondary research, that UNITY cannot reach their fundraising goals without first becoming an active and trusted member of the community. This led us to create a campaign that will be broken into two sections – the first “EDUCATE & ENGAGE” and second “EMPOWER.” The two-part campaign will allow UNITY to fully EDUCATE their prospects through events specifically geared to showcase UNITY’s core values and sponsorships that reflect their commitment to be actively ENGAGED in their community.

UNITY will EMPOWER corporations within the community to make a difference in the lives of Oklahoma City youth by becoming a sponsor. The $100,000 fundraising campaign will target the five corporations that Prince, Hinds, Richard & Montgomery identified as UNITY’s top potential donors in addition to secondary prospects. Based on the National Fundraising Corporations model, the campaign is broken up into tears of target corporations. This allows for easy implementation and makes $100,000 attainable. This campaign will be implemented after the peek of UNITY’s involvement to capitalize on their current awareness within the community.

Big IdeaCommunication ObjectiveBuild trust and interest amongst our target market by generating a carefully crafted awareness campaign designed to increase funding and support.

Tone of AdvertisingThe tone of the Advertising for UNITY will be created to educate and inspire the target market. We know to grow corporate sponsorships UNITY must be in the public eye and become a nonprofit that the public is aware of and supports. By educating and inspiring the target demographic UNITY will be at the forefront of the consumers minds and will become a trusted nonprofit.

Campaign StrategyMarketing ObjectivesIdentify the top five potential Corporate Sponsors and have two secured by the 2013-2014 fiscal year.

Creative ObjectiveSeek media which offer maximum opportunity to effectively portray the positive impact UNITY has on the community.

Positioning StatementUNITY is the nonprofit who will provide you with the best opportunity to give back to local youth and create future engaged citizens while providing your company with a positive community presence.

Red Earth: Native Exchange Booth $400/2%For more than 33 years Red Earth, Inc. has been recognized as the primary multi-cultural resource in Oklahoma for advancing the understanding of Native American traditional and contemporary culture. UNITY needs to become a part of this community to build relationships with those who would be interested in starting Youth Council in the OKC area. Red Earth occurs annually in early June.

Chamber $500/2% (OKC Chamber)UNITY will join the Greater Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce to begin networking with prospective donors and sponsors. This membership will last all year and will be renewed annually.

Economy $750/3%UNITY will sell art at the Festival of the Arts in OKC from every community that has Youth Council. A portion of each sell will benefit UNITY and they will also be able to showcase the positive impact the organization has on their communities. The arts festival occurs in late April.

Golf Tournament $800/3%Another PR tactic to giveback to the community and engage with the target is a sponsorship of a golf tournament. UNITY will sponsor the annual Make a Wish Foundation “Wish Upon a Par” tournament providing hole sponsorships and giveaways. The tournament occurs annually in May.

Rowing Team Sponsorships $1,000/ 4%A PR effort designed to bring UNITY in the forefront of our target market’s mind is a sponsorship of a local rowing team. Rowing is an upcoming sport and is especially popular among our target market. It is important that UNITY to become immersed in the community and become a part of the target markets interests. The sponsorship will occur during peek rowing season times in April, June and August.

Environment $2,000/8%The soon to be built park just south of downtown I-40 will be a central hub for downtown life. UNITY will sponsor a section of the park to ensure they leave their mark on an upcoming attraction in the OKC area.

Events:We have designed events that fall under UNITY’s core values of continuing and improving the environment, education, family, culture & economy.

Education $4,000/17%UNITY will provide four (4) $1,000 scholarships to an Oklahoma City High School senior who have displayed their previous commitment to their community in the following areas of environment, education, family, culture, or economy. The application process will occur in April and will include a required video posted on YouTube explaining how they have exemplified these qualities.

Culture (Previously allocated)UNITY will participate in one of the biggest Native American celebrations in Oklahoma the Red Earth Festival. By having an informational booth at the festival they will be able to recruit potential youth members and create a strong identity among the Native American community. The festival occurs in early June.

Public Relations

Guerilla MarketingYouth Council Cutouts: $3,225/13% (75 at $43.23 PartyStandUps.com) UNITY will create cutouts of youth that will represent the youth council that Oklahoma City is missing. The cutouts will be placed Leadership Square in Downtown Oklahoma City. This visually impactful Guerrilla Marketing strategy will create buzz in the community and generate interest in UNITY.

The Underground $3,850/16% UNITY will become a part of the day -to -day lives of the businessmen and woman of downtown. This tactic is designed to meet our target market in their environment and create awareness of UNITY in the OKC area by having walking advertisements in the underground walking system. This tactic will run in mid August for 10 days.

Social Media is the most cost effective way to reach out to the community and to your future prospects. Platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and the UNITY website will provide a direct line from the nonprofit to the community. These are the most cost affective and with spending at least five to ten hours a week on updating, tweeting, and communicating will increase the face of UNITY and creating a positive brand image in the minds of those online.

FacebookA current UNTIY Facebook page already exists with over a thousand “Likes” and just over twenty pictures. This networking site offers great opportunities to connect to members of the youth councils around the country in addition to creating a presence online for those interested in supporting UNITY. The current UNITY page has not been updated since the Facebook timeline switch. This causes the page to look not engaging and confusing for the consumer. In order to create awareness online, UNITY must begin a regular conversation with the target market. It is vital that UNITY does not talk at the market but rather has an open conversation. These conversations can include what going on the communities and how they enjoyed UNITY events.

TwitterLike Facebook, Twitter is also a fantastic opportunity for social media networking. UNITY does not currently have a Twitter account, however the @unityinc handle is available. Weekly, if not, daily tweets should be posted to twitter page. These tweets will follow the same updates as the Facebook page. As the Twitter account becomes more popular with followers the amount of retweets will reach more community members interested in UNITY’s organization.

YouTubeThe YouTube link on UNITY’s website takes the consumer to a search page. UNITY needs an official account to feature videos from key events and youth councils around the country. These videos do not need to be produced directly by the organization but should reflect the core values and current activities of the nonprofit.

WebsiteThe website is in need of the most work, and should be done promptly. Some of the links are broken or do not redirect to the correct web address. The Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, YouTube, and RSS feed buttons should all be moved to the banner that is displayed on every page. The news that is featured on the website is outdated and does not provide relevant information. A regular update of news and events is crucial for the consumer who is researching the nonprofit. In addition, contact information for UNITY staff needs to be featured and professionalized.

Social MediaYouTube Scholarship Video ContestWe recommend that after establishing an official YouTube channel, UNITY use this as a way to offer their scholarship(s). High school seniors could submit their entries/applications through their own YouTube video. In their entry, they should explain how they have exhibited UNITY’s core values throughout their years in high school. Videos should be submitted as a response video to an initial video posted by UNITY on their official YouTube page.

Social Media Hub In order to better utilize each of these social media outlets efficiently, we recommend that UNITY look into a service that allows a user to access, monitor, and post to all or select social media outlets, all from one convenient site, rather than having to access each one individually. One specific service that we recommend using is HootSuite. HootSuite is a free or paid service that allows you to connect each one of your social media accounts for easy access all at once. Choosing the free service allows you to connect up to 5 social media profiles and 2 RSS feeds. The paid version, which is $5.99 per month, would allow for unlimited social media profiles, as well as analytic information from each of the social media outlets and an archive of all tweets from Twitter. It also allows for one additional “team member” to help manage these accounts. With this service, UNITY should be able to keep each one of the social media outlets updated with up to date information without the hassle of having to log in to each site individually. This not only save time, but it will also make sure that you’re reaching every possible bit of your target market in the case that you might post on one outlet, but not the other. outlet, but not the other. outlet, but not the other.

Evaluation PlanThings to consider as you are starting to measure the success of UNITY’s campaign. Was the campaign well planned? Did the recipients understand the message? What improvements can be made? Did you achieve your state goals? Was the budget adequate? What is replicable for future campaigns? 1

The IAB framework: Evaluation ToolIntent: Establish intentions and objectives in order to define which KPIs are most pertinentAwareness, Appreciation, Action, Advocacy

Benchmark: Compare benchmarks with other activity, channels, industry averages The intent has already been established by the entire campaign. The goals that have been defined in order to complete the two section campaign are awareness and corporate dollars. Without these goals we don’t have anything to evaluate the success of the campaign. The 4 A’s measure the awareness of the tactics used throughout the campaign, appreciation measures the engagement and appreciation of the tactics, action solicits a response or influences behavior from our target market in some way, and advocacy from our target market or from the public for UNITY. The benchmark is the studies of the results from the campaign, without it the measures of success are meaningless. Only compare with other platforms which share similar objectives, such as, how does Facebook compare to Twitter in results of our building brand awareness objective? We don’t want to compare is something working better than the other, just measuring what it does. Additional benchmarks, how does the activity

on Facebook and Twitter compare to our competitors activity who are also trying to build awareness? How does our response from the Red Earth Booth compare to last year’s response, or how has that response improved since the last measurement period. We need to look at how our budget was used by determining the Cost per, Impression (awareness), Engagement (appreciation), Lead (action), and Referral (advocacy). Each year you must take how many impressions for each event, determined from the media flow chart, to how many responses you received by dividing the two and coming up with how much per impression did that cost? For appreciation, do the same but for how many donations did you receive from the Fundraising Packet Campaign. Action, how many people have taken action to help UNITY grow from any of the events compared to the impressions? Advocacy, how many new people that were not originally targeted have come forward because of our target market? (These are essentially free marketing by word of mouth)

Although not included in the budget, learning more and wunderstanding the value of online Media Web site Analytics services will greatly benefit UNITY. Leaders include Google Analytics, Omniture, WebTrends and Hitwise. These companies do all the online footwork for you to determine the effectiveness of your presence online.

PitchFor over 36 years UNITY has provided leadership opportunities for American Indian and Alaska Native youth across the country. Establishing a presence in Oklahoma City will provide a needed foundation for continual expansion of the UNITY brand and cause. Today’s oversaturated and fast paced society demands that a nonprofit create their own identity among the noise. UNITY has the opportunity to take hold of their identity as the only nonprofit designed to “foster the spiritual, mental, physical and social development of American Indian and Alaskan youth and helps build a strong, unified and self-reliant Native America through greater youth involvement.” Prince, Hinds, Richard and Montgomery has designed an integrated marketing campaign that allows UNITY to fulfill their mission in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area and continue to grow as they become the Native American youth nonprofit of choice.
