Tall Ships Tacoma
We were hired by the Tall Ships Tacoma organization to take on the very daunting task of raising $400,000 in sponsorship for a second time event that was held four years prior. Not only did we exceed this revenue goal by securing $740,000 in cash sponsorships, we also were able to secure another $1,000,000 of in-kind media that we worked on for them free of charge. In addition to sponsorship sales and in-kind media, we were later also hired to take over operations for the landside part of the event. Our involvement with Tall Ships Tacoma was a true partnership. We worked in the Tall Ships offices a few days a week with at times the board of Directors, local stake holders, government officials, volunteers and core staff. We built a sponsorship portfolio from the ground up and it included some very unique and what proved to be appealing sponsorship experiences that helped us far exceeded the clients revenue goals.
