We're looking for sponsors for
24 Hour Comics Day 2009! We're not looking for cash, but we are looking
for companies willing to provide goods and services to some or all of
the host sites. We are specifically looking for:
- Snack food: as a 24 hour
event, a lot of snacking tends to take place
- Soft drinks
- Meals: this would be a
good sponsorship for regional or larger restaurant chains.
(Individual restaurants that want to provide meals should email us,
and we'll try to hook you up with an individual event site; you
won't be part of the national publicity, but the local event host
may be able to offer their own promotional possibilities.)
- Art supplies and tools
- Transportation services:
helping get sleepy cartoonists back home
- Photocopy services: this
would help stores submit copies of the resulting stories for the
official records. Some stores might also want to offer copies of the
locally-produced comics for sale.
We are open to other types of
products and services that would help make the events comfortable,
entertaining, or successful.
You will be exposing your
product not only to the cartoonists participating at the event sites and
their hosts, but also to those visiting the event sites. Most events are
held at comic book stores, and the 24 hour nature of the event means
that at least part of the event will be during open stores hours (and
many stores even choose to remain open for 24 hours during the event.)
And while we cannot guarantee press coverage, we will note that some of
2007 & 2008's 24 Hour Comics Day events were covered with both national and
local TV and print, so there is a chance for some product visibility.
Your product will be associated with an energetic and creative event.
Sponsors offering support to a
substantial portion of the event sites may receive mention in press
releases issued by 24 Hour Comics Day, and will have their logo and a
web link put on the 24 Hour Comics Day
website.
Drop a line to
24HCD@comicspro.org and let us know what you would like to
offer. We'll be glad to answer whatever questions you have. |
