Good day,

Hope your day is going on great.

We are the promoter of Performance Poetry and Spoken Word Events in Nigeria. We are very passionate about the Art as a genre of entertainment, tool to increase literacy level, and as a means of communication, education and information.

Our goal is to create a Performance Poetry and Spoken Word industry (just like the Comedy Industry in Nigeria) where people can earn a decent living as Performance Poets. A Performance Poetry and Spoken Word industry will help reduce unemployment in the Country as awareness and sponsorship of the Art form increases. This Art form would also improve the literacy level in Universities and Secondary Schools, and generally amongst the populace, as a good Poet needs to be able to read and write, and must also be intellectually sound to be able to pass the message inherent his/her poetry performances to the audience,

We want to outline the benefits that will accrue to your organization for sponsoring Spoken Word Poetry Events. Based on our market research, we have come to know that the key aims of sponsoring events by your Organization would include the following:

• Brand Awareness

• Encourage usage of the Organization’s products

• Increase patronage by using events and sponsored activities as a platform to get new customers and retain old customers..

• Using innovative ideas to build the Organization’s brand via the activities and the events being sponsored.

• Ensure maximum impact of the Organization’s CSR activities by the targeted populace.

In meeting with the above key aims, we will ensure we deliver the following:

• Branding Opportunity: credit in event advertising, programs, invitations, mailings, flyers, and posters

• Hospitality : complimentary tickets to events and VIP receptions and the Organization’s employee get discounts to the events. In addition, the
Organization has the opportunity to supply branded gift bags and/or gift-bag items at the events,

• Media Exposure: credit in event advertising, programs, invitations, mailings, flyers, and posters.

• Database Acquisition: there will be an event register at the door to take names, profession, phone numbers, email address and bb pin of visitors to the events

• Product Experience : visitors to the events will get to register for mobile money transfer services, and also account opening forms, with follow up visits by Relationship Managers.

In addition to the above, there are some additional benefits that will accrue to the Organization, and they include the following:

1. The Organization will be associated with patronage of the Art and with important and successful educational work in schools as Poets tour Secondary Schools and Universities all over the Country.

2. The Organization enjoys the benefits of association with important cultural events and will be seen as an organisation with a strong charitable brand.

3. Sponsorship of Spoken Word Poetry events brings significant marketing and promotional benefits to the Organization in terms of exposing youths in the Universities and Secondary Schools to the Organization’s brand. This will increase the likelihood of getting to become customers of the Organization as they will perceive the Organization’s brand as supportive of the youths.

4. It will save the Organization cost in terms of tax by qualifying for exemption under CSR for contributing/ sponsoring such Literacy developing events

5. It also fulfills important corporate CSR objectives and associates the Organization in Arts and with the youth community.

6. The Organization’s gets name placement in all marketing materials, on the stage and even around the venue.

7. Special poem(s) about the Organization’s brand can be performed at the beginning and end of the events and possibly used in the Organization’s advert campaigns.

8. More Organization’s products and services aligned towards this Art form can be developed to further increase the bottom line of the Organization.
