HotelClub Launches a Sponsorship Scheme with a Difference
HotelClub launches a sponsorship scheme with a difference by offering help to smaller businesses and organizations. Registration is made easy by going to the online application page at http://www.hotelclub.com/sponsorship.
Sydney, Australia, June 26, 2008 --(PR.com)-- HotelClub has launched a new sponsorship programme designed exclusively for smaller businesses and organisations. The online accommodation specialist is welcoming applications from a variety of organisations who normally struggle to secure sponsorship when competing against larger players.
Jon Wild, Global Marketing Director at HotelClub, explains that a conscious decision was made to move away from large corporate sponsorship and instead focus efforts at a local level – “When people think sponsorship they think flashy endorsements at sporting events, but our programme is about funding projects that make a real difference to local communities.”
The scheme will be rolled out globally, in line with HotelClub’s positioning strategy. With accommodation across 120 countries and website content available in 12 languages, HotelClub is keen to take a vested interest in all of their markets at ground level.
The online application process will also remove any geographic restrictions and HotelClub hope to see applicants from small businesses, community organisations, charities, schools and learning faculties.
Wild adds, “We are really excited about seeing how organisations invest the funds, it might be with a fundraising event, new computer equipment or we might see something different thrown into the mix! Either way, it is going to be very rewarding initiative for both parties.”
