We invite Your Company to be the Judging and Grooming Room sponsor for a truly one-of-a-kind event - the 9th World Beard & Mustache Championships! It may be strange to think of a grooming room but you would be surprised how much work goes into some of the beards and moustaches that the competitors sport. For only the second time in the contests storied history, it is being held in the United States. From May 20th to May 24th, these bearded men, and their friends and family will be roaming the streets of Anchorage. Many plan on vacationing for several weeks in Alaska. There is a large contingent of competitors coming from Germany as well as competitors coming from South America, Australia, Canada, and the lower 48. We are expecting over 300 participants and a sold out crowd at the Denaina Center of up to 3000 spectators. Based on past championships, the media exposure will be huge and worldwide. Already there have been inquiries from the Washington Times, Time Magazine, Philadelphia Inquirer, Fortune Magazine, the CBS Early Show, the BBC, and more. Participating will give national and worldwide exposure to Your Company and will supply an excellent vehicle to promote your business to locals as well as out-of-towners. Judging and Grooming Room Sponsor: Your rights and benefits package will include these opportunities: · Exclusive Title: The WBMC Judging and Groom Room brought to you by Your Company · Sponsor banner (provided by you) draped down from the front of the competition stage in during the event. · 10 tickets to the event and Friday reception. · Pre-purchase of tickets to the event prior to the public sale. · Bounce-back opportunities with the official hair product (TBD) · Coupon opportunities. · Complimentary on-site information product sampling table. · A free quarter page ad (provided by you) in the official program and insert in Coast Magazine, with statewide distribution of 20,000. · A large web presence with website links on the Official Anchorage Convention & Visitors Bureau website: www.anchorage.net/worldbeard, as well as the Host Clubs website: www.akbeardclub.com and the World Beard and Moustache Championships site: www.worldbeardchampionships.com. · Recognition on all print, radio, and possibly television ads promoting the Event. In short, the World Beard & Mustache Championships are an ideal platform for Your Company. The vendor booth fees will benefit the charities of the Lions Clubs, namely the Alaska Center for the Blind, Camp-Abilities, and the Northwest Eye Foundation. We are operating as a 501(c)(3) organization for this event. All net proceeds will be given to these charities, and your booth fees will be tax deductible. The exclusive sponsorship of the Judging and Grooming Room is available for reasonable $2000 to $3000. Many other sponsorship opportunities and levels are available too, and all costs and terms are negotiable. Please consider this proposal as a starting point. We look forward to working with you on additional sponsorship ideas to maximize your exposure. I would like to call in the next few days to discuss this opportunity and hope to have Your Company as a partner for this event! To learn more, please go to www.akbeardclub.com. Sincerely,
