Overview
Every event has moving parts, but for Marine Corps Community Services (MCCS) at Camp Pendleton, those parts impact real lives. MCCS organizes large-scale events that directly support military families. For instance bringing communities together, offering valuable resources, and fostering lasting connections.
Sponsorships are the backbone of these events, ensuring their success and expanding their reach. But securing the right sponsors isn’t just about sending emails; it’s about finding the right decision-makers, building relationships, and showing potential sponsors why these events matter.
That’s where David Mamea comes in. As a Corporate Sales Executive, his job is to connect with companies that want to support MCCS events like the Spouse Appreciation Event, Yuma Airshow, and Super Kids Carnival STEM Zone. But there was one major challenge i.e. getting in touch with the right people.
The Challenge
David knew who he wanted to reach, but finding accurate contact information was another story.
- Many outreach efforts led to outdated or incomplete data.
- Tracking down decision-makers took too much time.
- Without a structured system, valuable sponsorships slipped through the cracks.
It wasn’t just frustrating, it slowed down the entire sponsorship pipeline. Every event needed funding, exhibitors, and partnerships, but reaching the right people in time was becoming a constant hurdle.
David needed a faster, more precise way to identify and connect with sponsors.
