COMMON QUESTIONS

Before you send.

Who should own sponsor recognition?

Choose one named team contact, even if several volunteers help. A single owner reduces missed posts, banners, and thank-you notes.

What proof should a team keep?

Keep a screenshot, photo, event-program copy, or public link that shows the agreed recognition was delivered.

What if a promised benefit becomes unavailable?

Tell the sponsor early, explain the constraint, and offer an approved alternative of comparable value rather than silently substituting it.
