A system is disclosed to serve marketing, sales and promotional needs of
community event promoters and sponsors, particularly community events
such as festivals and fairs. The system integrates radio advertising,
television advertising, an Internet website, electronic messaging,
in-person interaction, a chamber of commerce tour and specially filmed
media presentations, providing a many faceted environment of multimedia
and in-person impressions. The website offers contest participation,
search capabilities for the location of events, event, sponsor, promoter
and performer showcases and a backstage services locator. Plus, elements
of the system are implemented before, during and after events to surround
the event and its attendees with event advertising and sponsor
impressions. The system increases event attendance, creates an
advantageous connection of the fun and celebration of a festival or event
to sponsors and extends the marketing potential beyond the dates of the
event.
