    • Why Partnering Makes Sense: Clearly explain how the partnership will benefit the partner. Highlight opportunities for visibility, audience engagement, and thought leadership.
    • Opportunities for Involvement: Provide various ways they can get involved (e.g., speaking opportunities, panel discussions, event sponsorship, co-marketing, content partnerships, or hosting a dedicated session).
    • Value for Their Audience: Emphasize how the event content aligns with their brand, expertise, and goals, and how participating will offer value to their customers or community.
    • Call to Action: Invite them to schedule a call to discuss partnership opportunities further or ask them to reply with interest.
• Follow-Up Email:
  • Subject Line: “Following Up: SCSPR-87 Partnership Opportunity”
  • Content: Reiterate the key points from the initial outreach, but with added urgency. Mention the limited number of partnership slots or upcoming deadlines for registration. Express enthusiasm and reaffirm the potential benefits for both parties.

  • Email Newsletter Inclusions: Include the partner’s logo, message, or offer in event-related newsletters sent to your audience, further increasing their visibility.
