Do you know the difference between sponsorship and fundraising?

Sponsorship in general is a relationship, similar to advertising. The sponsor has an expectation of some kind of commercial return, such as generating new business, brand recognition, or another measurable result. There is a primary element of access to the audience. Fundraising is more about identifying and giving to causes that people care about.

Understanding this difference will impact how you approach your communication.
