Early Adopter Sponsorship Pack
sponsorship@evo-networking.uk
Welcome to The Show! Sponsorship of The Biz LIVE is a new way to promote your business to the EVO network and to a larger community too at a great price. This is an invitation to become an ‘early adopter’ and join us from the very beginning. The Biz LIVE is a trading style of EVO Networking which has been running business networking events for nearly 5 years in the South West of England, and more recently, Wales. Since March 2020, the meetings have expanded and moved online (pictured right). The show has been announced recently off the back of EVO Founder Jamie Breese’s successful application to become a LinkedIn Live broadcaster. We’ve recently engaged LinkedIn expert Greg Cooper as a paid consultant and as far as we can ascertain, this is a very rare accreditation and will only be awarded to those who can demonstrate broadcast experience and LinkedIn following. In other words - very few people will be streaming and when they do, it’s going to standout. This is not like Periscope, Facebook Live or Instagram Live. It’s reserved for the select few! This is a brand new feature on LinkedIn in the UK and as such, how the first few episodes will be seen and consumed is a truly unknown quantity. We do know that when we go live, there is an on-screen notifications to some (or perhaps all?) of Jamie’s contacts in LinkedIn. There is also a notification in the LinkedIn top menu. Once the live broadcast is complete, it is then featured as ‘Previously recorded live’ in the newsfeed and connections notifications.

Our Studio
Our studio is confirmed and is Origin Workspace in Clifton, Bristol in the UK.
We will be using the most flexible large space - the boardroom. This has a large touchscreen TV which can also double-up as a whiteboard should any studio guest’s presentation require something less virtual than a screenshare.
There is a friendly welcome for all guests at reception and relaxed waiting area with refreshments. This will act as our green room.
This premium location has the very best Wi-Fi for streaming to the network and ample on-street parking outside.

The Sponsorship Package is for 1-month (4 episodes) and features the following: 1. Dedicated e-Shot to the EVO List x 1 We will send a single email to the current opt-in database of over 1000 subscribers. We will also send this to the ‘did not open’ list a few days later to ensure a higher open rate. The email promotes the Sponsor and can contain a logo with hyperlink, up to 300 words and a photograph. 2. A Short Promotional Video x 4 We will shoot, edit and post a short video about each forthcoming episode on LinkedIn. This will be presented to camera by Jamie (and the sponsor will be name-checked in each video). You can see a recent example of a video he made recently here. We will include sponsor logos on the two ‘endcards’. This recent video had 4,000 views since it was posted a few weeks ago. Jamie has over 8,500 connections and often content is shared. 3. Posting On LinkedIn x 2 We will post information about the Sponsor in a general posting on Jamie’s LinkedIn and new The Biz LIVE company page/group. We can do this twice for the show sponsor in any given month. 4. On-Screen Sponsor Logo LinkedIn permite a small sponsor logo on screen throughout the broadcast. This will be one of the most powerful promotional offerings within the overall package.
