The state of sponsorship

Sponsorship is broken.
Brands spend more, prove less, and renew barely.

The traditional sponsorship playbook — cold outreach, six-figure conference booths, PDF "analytics" reports, gut-feel renewals — was built for a world without data. That world is gone. COMA replaces it with one built on verified attendance, real engagement, and clean ROI math.

$25B+
wasted yearly on sponsorship no one can prove

Brands spend big on events and communities, then can't answer the simplest ROI question.

90 days
average time to close a single sponsor deal

Cold email → pitch → negotiate → legal → sign. By the time you close, the moment is gone.

<12%
of sponsors renew after their first deal

Without post-event data, sponsors treat the next quarter as a coin flip — and usually walk.

COMA exists to fix this. We connect brands directly to 1,247 vetted communities, route every dollar through verified-event flows, and produce the ROI scorecard your CFO has been asking for since 2018.

Why COMA

Four reasons it's a no-brainer.

Brands switch to COMA because the math works in quarter one. They stay because the math keeps working in every quarter after.

Real ROI for the cost of one conference booth

A single conference sponsorship runs $40K–$250K and gets you a banner in a noisy hall. The same budget on COMA funds 15–80 community partnerships, each with verified attendance data, post-event reports, and renewal paths. You don't cut your sponsorship budget — you 10× what it does.

03

QR-verified attendance, not guesswork

Every COMA event uses QR check-ins. Sponsors see real headcount, demographic breakdown, engagement time, and follow-on actions (app installs, signups, purchases). No more 'we estimate 300 people attended' in a PDF — you get a clean dashboard the morning after every event.

Manage the whole program in one workspace

Discovery, outreach, contracts, payments, asset delivery, event tracking, post-event reports, renewals — all in one COMA workspace. Stop stitching together Notion + DocuSign + Airtable + Drive + email. Your sponsorship team finally has one source of truth.

FAQ

Questions sponsors actually ask.

A mid-tier conference sponsorship runs $40K–$80K and gets you logo placement + a booth. The same $50K on COMA funds 25–60 community events, each with verified attendance of 80–400 people. That's 5–15× the reach, with post-event data, asset delivery, and renewal paths built in. Most sponsors cut their conference spend by 40% in year one and reinvest the difference in COMA.
