Why is it necessary for your charity or fundraiser event to have a red carpet area?
Sponsors will love you!
Gain the support of your sponsors by letting them know their logo will be displayed on the step and repeat, and thus, in all photos posted everywhere after! Extra exposure for them!
Don’t pay for your backdrop!
Sponsors will increase the level of sponsorship and give you more money to have their logo included. For example, you can send out a sponsorship advertisement about your event and list the Bronze Sponsorship Level worth $500 which includes a link on website, email blast and ad in event program. The Silver Sponsorship Level would be $1000 which would include the same items above plus their logo on the backdrop! This is just an example.
The increased income from all sponsors will easily cover the price of the backdrop PLUS!!
Celebrity Red Carpet Status
Increase the stature of your event to “celebrity status”. Just the mere fact of having a step and repeat set up, a red carpet runway, lights shining softly on the backdrop and photographers flashing away, really puts forth a quality of “importance” and “richness”. You want this for your event.
You Need a Background for the Celebrities and VIPs
Random objects and people in the background of a celebrity photo is unacceptable. A backdrop created for this purpose will result in excellent, professional photos.
Guests Need to Feel Important
No event is worth anything without the people that attend. Make your guests feel welcome and important by taking their photo on the red carpet! These guests may become your largest contributors.
Distinguish Your Events
Will you be having multiple events throughout the year – with possibly the same celebrities and VIPs in attendance? Think about the after-photos being posted online via social media from all of these events. You do not want it to appear to be the SAME event. You want to show that you’ve been having TONS of events at different places for different causes with different people (or whatever the situation is). Distinguish your event with a NEW design, with some NEW added logos, etc
