Sponsored Courses and Webinar Series

This is probably already a key part of your sponsorship strategy. These sponsorships are different from webinars because they have a major offline advertising component that will be present at the event venue. Use your website to manage these events online as well. Accept registrations and generate leads for your sponsors.
Consider partnering with tradeshows as their education partner. Through this you gain access to celebrity trainers, discounted venues, huge exposure with cross promotions… and unprecedented sponsorship opportunities. Promote their events online to your members. Record the event and post these recordings as courses for your membership.
3rd Party Video/Training Distribution
Sponsors produce their own corporate training and education videos. Most sponsors do not have the technology or they don’t have access to their target market (your membership). Offer to distribute their training and education videos for a recurring fee to your membership.
Translated Content Distribution
Offer greater marketing opportunities to your sponsors looking to target additional languages. Reach out to a broader user base within your industry with an economical way to rapidly expand your training library into additional languages. Essentially translate your existing courses/videos or creating new ones that appeal to new language markets. How do you translate your content? Easy, just record new audio and we’ll add the voice over. Alternatively, add closed captioning for each video.
Email Blasts
Offer sponsors the opportunity to be included in your monthly overview newsletters. Email special offers on behalf of your sponsors for a fee. Complete with click tracking and follow-up reports to validate the campaign success and associated costs.
Banner Ads
Sell banner ads & premium placements on your courses, blogs, email blasts and events pages. Your sponsors promote their products, services and events. Nearly every program can have a sponsored banner using text, graphics, video and interactive animations. You track the clicks and views easily to justify the cost of advertising. It’s common to have multiple sponsored banners placed within a email campaign or web page. Sponsors may also want to show their endorsement for a blogger by paying for the right to post their logo within the blog. Banners are also a great opportunity to promote internal programs or local industry news. Based on experience, when a sponsor experiences results from banner ads this leads to bigger sponsorships such as a training mini-series or a hands on event.
Blogger Endorsements
Invite your celebrity bloggers to review products/services for sponsors. Some bloggers will attain such notoriety that sponsors simply want to pay to have their logo affiliated with them… Charge sponsors a fee to align their products with your celebrity bloggers. Place banner ads, distribute email campaigns fans, have bloggers review their products/services. Blogger fans become the target markets for your sponsors.
