How to Effectively Promote Sponsors at a Golf Tournament Fundraiser

Golf tournament fundraisers are a great way for any company to provide outreach and foster good will for your brand within a community. They are also a great event for deploying a robust signage plan. You can really maximize sponsorship opportunities and brand exposure via signage at a golf tournament, thanks to the breadth of compatible sign options. Below is a list of signage styles you should consider when planning a golf tournament.

Chalkboards and letter boards are a great way to provide up-to-date information about scoring to players and guests. An A-frame design works great for sidewalks and paths, while an option with a weighted base is better suited for flat, grassy locations. These types of signs can also be used in way-finding applications.

Banners are a golf tournament staple. They are a versatile, cost-effective, and highly customizable signage option. Large banners at the starting and ending points of the tournament will let you include pertinent information and display the logos of your major sponsors. Branded teardrop banners are popular for designating hole sponsorships.

Premium sponsorships can be added to the mix with exclusive signage options. Displays and branded table covers are a great choice for sponsors who want to have a human presence at their sponsored hole. Golf cart wraps, vehicle stickers, and vehicle magnets are a way for a sponsor to differentiate themselves from the 18 companies that are sponsoring holes.

Offer sponsorships for everything. With the variety of materials and mounting types available, custom signage can turn anything into a marketing opportunity. Let a company sponsor valet parking in exchange for a sign at the valet stall and branded valet tickets. If you're hiring a caterer, angle for a better price in exchange for displays near the catering station.
