A sponsorship proposal template is a repeatable framework used to pitch sponsorship opportunities and sponsorship benefits to potential sponsors. It typically includes the event name, campaign overview, audience metrics, pricing tiers, deliverables, brand visibility options, and the terms of a sponsorship agreement. For nonprofits or corporate partners involved in corporate social responsibility programs, it’s a key tool for securing financial support for their initiatives.

With Dock, the template becomes more than just a document—it’s an interactive proposal site where sponsors can engage, share internally, and explore visuals like infographics, videos, and past event sponsors’ success stories.

A strong sponsorship proposal should contain:

• A compelling cover page and overview of the opportunity
• Audience insights (demographics, target audience, reach, and past performance)
• Clear sponsorship tiers and pricing
• Deliverables and brand visibility options
• Testimonials or results from last year’s sponsors
• Contact information and a strong call to action

If you're pitching to corporate partners, embed an infographic highlighting ROI or include quotes from previous nonprofit collaborations. Don’t forget to link to relevant social media highlights from past events.

Use this anytime you're pitching sponsorships—whether for a nonprofit fundraiser, podcast, or major conference. It's especially valuable when managing complex event management workflows or pitching to larger corporate social responsibility teams. A template helps standardize messaging and makes the sponsorship process easier to scale across multiple stakeholders.
