Is #CorporateSponsorship for the #Arts dead? This was one of the great questions raised in conversations at the Culture Business Conference. At a time, as I have oft remarked, when #ArtsOrganisations are having to speak to so many priorities, how can you also add the interests of for-profit entities that want cheaper-than-an-advertising-campaign exposure and engagement at the cost of a smattering of in-kind or minimal cash donation? For anyone in the SME #ArtsSector, you might wonder if #CorporateSponsorship for the #Arts was ever really live. Why? Because in my experience, it is very difficult to align the interests of sponsors and arts institutions that are so resource strapped (which is why you are trying to get sponsorship) that you are caught in a subsistence business model 'death roll' trying to fulfill sponsor expectations. And like the project-specific funding of yore whereby you could not embed infrastructure costs into funding applications, you usually ended up in a #FunctionalDeficit (or as your canny Scottish grandma might say, 'robbing Peter to pay Paul'). There are endless amounts of cutesy advice you will find on the interwebs, like 'encourage your staff and volunteers to wear sponsor merchandise' but you're an #ArtsOrganisation not a billboard. So, perhaps the news of the death of #CorporateSponsorship is slightly exaggerated. But it might need life support. And greater incentivisation from governments. https://lnkd.in/gEx6KhPV

Finding Family and Purpose in Rotary... I just wanted to share a little about something that's brought so much joy and meaning into my life: Rotary. It's more than just a club; it's a tight-knit community dedicated to making the world a better place. From day one, I've been embraced by a group of people who aren't just friends—they're like family. They're always there to support, encourage, and uplift me, no matter what. But it's not just about the camaraderie. Rotary is all about making a difference. Whether it's tackling local issues or contributing to global causes, every project we take on is a chance to create positive change in the world. And the best part? While we're busy serving others, we're also growing personally and professionally. Through Rotary, I've gained invaluable skills, made lasting connections, and discovered a sense of purpose I never knew I was missing. So, if you've ever thought about joining Rotary, I say go for it. You'll find more than just a club—you'll find a family who will support you every step of the way as we work together to make the world a better place. #rotarian #connections #visionary P.S: Pic from our last Board meeting.

Have you ever seen a video online that made you tear up, hit like, and desperately want to be part of the cause it championed? This was it for me. This video perfectly demonstrates the power of influencer marketing for good. Influencer marketing isn't new, and many organizations have been leveraging this strategy, but there are still areas that need refining. Imagine watching an influencer talk about a cause they're clearly not passionate about—it would leave you with a weird feeling, right? This is why storytelling is crucial in influencer marketing. The most important factor is ensuring that the influencers involved genuinely care about the cause. Authenticity is key. Influencers should have a history of supporting the cause or at least be vocally passionate about it. When an influencer has a genuine connection to the cause, their content feels more believable and relatable. Take Enioluwa, for example. This isn't his first time getting involved in social good, and watching him bring others on board is seriously inspiring. What he has done is a perfect example of how organizations can combine powerful storytelling with the right influencers to create campaigns that make a real impact on the cause itself. When it comes to social impact, the spotlight should be less on the organization and more on the cause. I’d love to see more organizations pushing real causes through well-told stories and with influencers who truly align with their mission. Have you seen a successful collaboration between brands and influencers for social good?
