Become a Sponsor of the
Improv Miami Prizes or "Impy's"
The
First Annual Impy Awards, the Improv Miami Prizes 2004, were
sponsored by Miller Brewing, Gold Coast Beverage and Telcom.net
web design and hosting.
The Second Annual Impy's, or The Improv Miami Prizes 2005
look to continue this and create an excellent tradition of making
an event that is worthwhile for the sponsors. This creates a partnership
that both helps the event succeed and helps to bring success to
the businesses involved.
Support a Community Cause
This is not a money-making event for the producers. Sponsorships
will likely be paid directly to providers of services or awards
for the shows and no actual money passes directly to the producers
of the show. The producers see themselves as facilitating the improv
troupes to throw their own show. In the unlikely event that there
are additional funds above the costs of the event, such funds are
to be distributed among the participating troupes or appropriate
charities.
Industry Exclusivity
We will guarantee that if a sponsorship is obtained from an organization
as a Silver, Gold, or Platinum sponsor, no other competing sponsors
will be pursued in that same category. For example, Miller Brewing
and Budweiser are direct competitors and so only one, not both,
would be acceptable as sponsors.
Audience Demographics
Patrons of improvisational theatre are typically adventurous men
and women aged 16-35. In addition to direct advertising at the show
through signage and inclusion in the show program, additional future
advertising is included through the online pages marking the victories
of the various troupes. This means that the individual troupes will
continue to market your companies by sending information about the
awards out and the pages describing the award on ImprovMiami.com
will include the sponsors for the show. Platinum and Gold members
also will have inclusion in the video and photographic history of
the show by being in signage behind the performers.

Raffle Donor - Products for Raffle
This level of sponsorship allows in-kind donation of items for a
raffle to be conducted during the show. A charity will be allowed
to directly sell raffle tickets during the show to raise money for
their charity. In recognition of your donation you will receive
acknoledgement during the show and mention during the raffle as
your product is raffled off. We reserve the right to deny access
to competitors products of other sponsors and/or for inappropriate
material as solely designated by ImprovMiami.com. In addition, some
of the raffle may be included in some of the future video materials
available from the show and thus may have some residual advertising
value as well.
Charity
We are currently looking for a charitable organization to be the
recipient of the Raffle. We are looking for an organization to help
undertake this effort and to assist in the growth of the raffle
and help with the marketing of the event. If you are interested
