What's in it for us?

BLUF

You need to show to us a CLEAR PLAN of how our investment may benefit us. You can find more details below.

Challenges - Points to consider...

Challenge Info

In order for us collaboratively to tell a good story we need weeks and months to do so.

While you may have a challenge in mind that's extremely arduous, unless its part of a series of events or more endurance type activities we may be unable to support.

Detailing challenges of a similar type done in the past and what sort of potential exposure that created.

Your Experience

If we don't know you at all, what you're pitching to us has to be within the realms of the believable. As in...

Humans can achieve some truly remarkable things. But, most of the time it's with prior experience.

It you come to us, we don't know you and are saying you're looking to run the length of the americas but are currently on a couch to 5k, it's probably not time for us to invest.

Other Information

What other companies are involved & in what capacity?

Are there any fundraising events?

Have you secured any conventional media support (TV/Radio)?

How would you like us to be involved?

Do you have a service connection?

The Cause

95% of the time large scale challenges involve a charitable cause of some description.

Adding a small amount of information on this is beneficial.

Challenge Participants - You may not have a huge profile now, this is not the critical success factor

If you can articulate the information we are requesting below and have realistic expectations you may still have a chance as us supporting you even if you have a limited current social profile. Howeve,r to manage expectations it may limit what we are able to provide slightly.

Do you have any team members that are high potential or have a following of note already?

Other partners

How would we be involved?

The Ask

If you're coming in cold and we've never spoken then we generally don't appreciate a straight request for specific things.

However, if you have a general information document on costs you'd be looking for this is useful.

Summary

The aim of this page is to help you deliver a good pitch first time. Remember, this might be for a great cause, or really help a team, but if you are asking for free things/ money it is a commercial proposition for us.
