• WHY do Businesses become CTE Sponsors?

    • Brand Visibility

      • Sponsoring an event can increase brand awareness and establish familiarity with a brand, long after the event is over.  In addition, it can lead to positive PR, and provide content for social media campaigns. 

    • Building Relationships

      • Sponsorships can provide opportunities to build relationships with stakeholders and customers.  For example, high-profile sponsorships may provide access to events for the sponsor and their clients.

    • Return on Investment
      • Event sponsorships can be more profitable than advertisements, costing a fraction of the price.

    • Community Involvement

      • Companies that sponsor local events can show attendees that they are interested in supporting CTE, students, and the community. This can increase company appeal.

    • Targeted Marketing

      • Sponsoring events can be a form of targeted marketing, which in turn builds emotional connections with potential and repeat customers.
