Become an Official BRD Sponsor
|
With our club competing in dragon boat competitions all around Australia with thousands of spectators, and participating in various social events, sponsoring with our club is a great way to market your company and products.
Our club has already become national champions in 2007 and 2008! These results require a lot of training to get to that level, which requires funds. So therefore, we require and are seeking sponsorship to give us financial support.
What are the Benefits?
Sponsorship creates image. For example, the first alcohol-free lagers of Guinness needed to get rid of their "wimpish" image. To do so, Guinness sponsored motor racing to advertise their non-alcoholic lager, Kalibur. By associating their product with such an intense sport, they developed a macho image, and before they knew it, their sales increased dramatically. The same example applies to sports drinks such as Gatorade, which has sponsored many sporting events and organizations to increase their company name - and where are they now? they're making millions of dollars and even being advertised on television all over the world!
Sponsorship improves company image. Dragon boat racing is a very financially-demanding sport (the rental of boats, training equipment, training facilities, coaches, etc). Companies who give to the community are often approved by the public - by sponsoring our dragon boat club, you will be perceived as putting people above profit, increasing the potential for more clients and customers. By sponsoring us, you give the public the right message, as well as advertise your product.

Our banner is displayed during the MIDBRF festival as well as many other activities we take part in such as the Canada Day parade. With thousands of spectators and competitors in dragon boat events, our large banner will attract peoples attention towards your business/company's logo, which will help increase the number of clients/customers in your company.
This is a very demanding sport. It has taken a lot of commitment and self-sacrifice for each of us to make the team (which requires twenty paddlers on the boat, one steering person, one drummer, and two alternate paddlers). This is a significant issue for our sponsors to understand as we will always keep you informed of every decision that we proceed in our training and the time, place, and date of our competitions and events.
If you are interested in becoming our sponsor, feel free to contact us. We look foward to hearing from you. |
