I was recently a non-profit and now a For-Profit organization. I am seeking the best avenue to find sponsorship for events, and such. I began with researching... but everything seems to be geared toward Non-Profits. Any suggestions?

You will need to develop relationships with the marketing people at various businesses. They have dollars to spend, but they want to ensure they get the type of exposure necessary. Also, you might want to check with your local banks as they have CRA (Community Reinvestment Act) dollars they must allocate to the urban population centers.
Usually there are many more opportunities for sponsorship for non-profits than for profits. It also depends on the type of company or service you provide. On March 23, 2009 at 10:30 am and 5:00pm there will be a person from the U.S SBA with money that has been allocated from the President's new stimulus plan. The monies are specifically for for profit small businesses. I will find out the location and post later or you may contact the SBA office downtown Memphis for more information.
Doris, this is not for nonprofits? I am a non profit organiation, newly started and still learning to basic ropes. If you here of anything geared toward nonprofits, please let me know.

Hi Sheila, the monies on the 23rd are not for nonprofits. There is money available for nonprofits through governmental assistance (depending on your targeted audience) and private organization sponsorship. I will forward a few examples later. Also, you are welcome to join our Christian Business Network. We help small business owners. The next meeting is April 4, 2009 9:30am-12N (the meeting is free). The location TBA. I will keep you updated. God Bless you and much success on your new organization.
Doris, please by all means keep me informed about the April 4th meeting. I live in Memphis in Whitehaven area.
April, I would like to know more about your non profit business and why you switched to for Profit. I have just started a nonprofit. I am working on getting my 501(c) 3 now. Any advice or help you or anyone else can give is greatly appreciated
