SIA and Corporate Sponsorships

SIA STARTED THE CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM IN 2005.

IN 2011 THE INITIATIVE WAS PUT ON HOLD.

Lessons learned between 2005 and

2011: SIA did not have the brand awareness to

attract corporate sponsors The reach of our membership was limited

in scope Soroptimist was not able to clearly tell

our story about the impact of our programs

SIA did not have the expertise or connection to reach the right companies

sales Engaged IEG to value LiveYourDream.org

“ A brand-centered organization must be committed to communicating the

brand meaning and value to everyone who represents the organization –

acknowledging that every deed, even seemingly inconsequential actions or

decisions, either builds or takes away from the brand and thus the ability

to attract corporate sponsors.”
