Company’s suppliers sponsoring LeadershipSummit?

Sounds like you got out at the right time. They are going to make their employees start wearing sponsor patches on their polos. They going to look like a NASCAR team installing HVACs.

this never happened.

I haven't worked since 2011, but the Dallas radio stations my old company advertised with gave us Rangers, Cowboys, Mavericks and Stars tickets and memorabilia that was used for sales contests. I have a Stanley Cup Finals game used NHL puck from a department-wide monthly contest. Have won Cowboys, Mavs, Stars & Ranger tickets in weekly department contests.

We got concert tickets through them too. We got tickets to museums and trade shows that the general public paid for too. We played in a media basketball team that papers, radio stations and tv stations played in. I wasn't really on the team, but I was the person anyone who couldn't make a game got to replace them, and I actually played in two games.

We also gave advertising to a blood bank that used to give tickets to concerts, if you gave blood. All we had to do was ask our promotions manager if she had any to give away. We even got some event tickets thru the SPCA. They gave them to us because we gave them free advertising.

I used to go eat free lunches at topless bars with our promotions manager. He used to get DVD's of movies before they came out in theaters. People like him at other companies had access to any kind of event you could think of, and they bartered with each other. It didn't pay a lot but was a fun job that young people would work. One of ours went to work for a topless bar when he left us.
