Welcome to 2010...

Welcome to the New Year --- hope things have started off well for you … and that 2010 will see you landing some truly significant sponsorships!

We're heading into the final month leading into our annual event, the National Sports Forum. This year we'll be taking the show to Baltimore – with an expected audience of somewhere in the 600-700 range. This is, as you might imagine, a crazy month for all of us at the Forum as we do our best to tend to all of the final details. You have to be extra careful as this is when things can start to slip through the cracks.

For us – most of our sponsorship selling for the coming Forum is finished. Now it's time for us to focus on the activation of our sponsorship programs. We'll re-check all of our sponsorship agreements – make sure we haven't forgotten anything or left anything out. Our goal is to always deliver more than what the sponsor was hoping for – but at the very worst, you don't want to overlook delivering all the things you promised.

We'll be covering the final steps leading up to the 2010 NSF in this month's blogs. Things are coming together nicely – should be a lot of fun!
