Where you are today

Two starting points, one outcome.

Digitize the Sponsors you already have

You already sell banners, signs or program ads. We convert that inventory into updateable digital Zones with approval rules, so the placement becomes measurable. No new Sponsor sale is required to start.

Build the program from scratch

Nothing sold yet is a normal place to start. We build the Zone map, the package structure and the rate card with you. On Sponsor Management, GEORA operates the sponsorship function within an agreed scope. You approve every Sponsor.

Check the fit

Two questions decide whether GEORA belongs in your Venue.

  1. 01How many local businesses have asked about sponsoring you that you could not fit?
  2. 02How many wall spots do you have sold today?

If both answers are zero, you are not a fit yet. That is useful to know before you buy another platform.

Priority Venue types: sports complexes, tournament venues, fairgrounds, attractions, schools, colleges, and event venues.

What changes

What changes when you use GEORA.

Without GEORA

  • Guests come, enjoy the event, leave. You have no way to reach them again.
  • Businesses (photographers, caterers, vendors) spend their marketing budget on Google and Instagram, not with you.
  • Your revenue is entirely event-dependent. No events = no income.
  • You rebuild your marketing audience from scratch for every event.

With GEORA

  • Every guest joins a consented Guest audience you can engage anytime.
  • Approved Sponsors pay your Venue monthly for a Zone, and you keep that revenue.
  • You earn recurring revenue every month, even between events.
  • Every event adds Guests to an audience your Venue owns.

Illustrative revenue model

Illustrative model: 10 Zones at $300/month creates $3,000 in gross sponsor revenue before the GEORA package fee and any additional Zone fees. Your Venue sets the rate.

“I don’t believe event venues should struggle with outdated marketing, empty calendars, or leaving revenue on the table. That’s why I built GEORA to give every physical location the infrastructure to own their audience and monetize it on their terms.”

FAQ

Questions locations ask.

  • GEORA turns the sponsorship inventory your Venue already owns into digital Zones, lets you open packages beyond your physical wall space, and measures Sponsor activity by Zone. You keep the rate card, approvals, Sponsor relationships and revenue.

  • Yes. Every audience profile, segment and engagement signal is yours. You can export it, segment it and use it on your terms, that is the entire point of audience ownership.

  • Those deals are one-off, sold by hand and tied to a single event or season, with nothing to report afterward. A zone is recurring, priced on a rate card, and every sponsor sees their own engagement numbers, so renewal is a conversation about results instead of goodwill.

  • Revenue scales with audience size, engagement and the number of sponsorship zones you offer. Use the revenue calculator on this page to model your location.

  • Most Venues can be live in about two weeks, including Zone mapping, Guest app onboarding and Sponsor workflow setup. Sponsor results are not promised in a set period.

  • You approve every sponsor and set frequency, category and format rules. Guests see relevant local offers, not generic ads.

Common questions

What locations ask before they commit.

What types of Sponsors fit my Venue?

It depends on your venue type. Wedding venues attract photographers, florists, caterers, DJs, and hotels. Event venues attract food/bev brands, rental companies, and entertainment services. Conference centers attract catering, hotels, AV companies, and sponsors. We'll identify your specific categories on the Discovery Call.

Do I have to find sponsors myself?

No. We help you identify and approach prospective Sponsors during onboarding. GEORA's Sponsor workflow also lets Sponsors learn about your Venue and apply to sponsor a zone, and you approve or reject every one.

What happens if a sponsor cancels?

Your audience and platform stay intact. Sponsors are one revenue channel. You can replace them, add new ones, or expand into featured placements. Your audience is the permanent asset, sponsors come and go.
