Price sponsorship on who shows up, not how many

Show sponsors the behaviour of your audience: the categories they over-index on, where they come from, and how your venue compares. Evidence a sponsor can take to their boss.

A headcount is inventory. An index is a reason to pay a premium.

At renewal time, sponsors ask what they're actually buying. Attendance figures and impressions don't answer it.

Sponsors want to know who these people are, and why this audience is worth more to their category than the alternatives.

Case study

A golf property turns its audience into sponsorship revenue

An Ontario golf property group was selling sponsorship on attendance and gut feel, with several renewals at risk. We indexed its audience across a full season and built an evidence page for each priority sponsor category. The client reports program value in the multiple six figures.

Also: a venue network

A digital screen network in community sports venues measured its audience against competing venues. With a 1.8x visitation index, it won a mid six-figure commitment from a first-time national advertiser.

Questions

Do you count attendance?

No. We measure a large sample of devices, never everyone, so we report indexes and shares. They show who your audience is and how it compares, which is what sponsors pay a premium for.

Which sponsor categories can you measure?

Any of the 76+ brand categories we track, from auto dealers and banks to grocery, fuel and quick service.

Can a sponsor reach our audience after the event?

Yes. We can run the sponsor's campaign to audiences like yours through programmatic, connected TV and out-of-home. Your audience data is never sold or handed over, and we reach patterns at scale, never individuals.

Can you compare our venue with others?

Yes. We index your visitation against competing venues, so sponsors see where you stand.

How long does it take?

A first analysis usually takes 2 to 3 weeks.

Is it privacy compliant?

Yes. Every insight is aggregated and anonymized, with no personal information, following PIPEDA and provincial privacy rules.
