Intro: Why Sponsorship Sales Are So Hard in Web3

Sponsorships are the lifeblood of Web3 events. They fund logistics, attract top speakers, and ensure strong community experiences.

But if you’ve ever tried to sell sponsorships for your event, you know the pain:

It takes weeks to manually track down the right sponsor contacts.
Telegram limits make scaling outreach tricky.
One-off cold DMs rarely get replies.

The result? Many organizers miss their revenue goals or scramble to fill sponsor slots at the last minute.

👉 The good news: with the right data-driven system, selling sponsorships on Telegram can be automated, scalable, and predictable.

The Core Challenge: Fragmented Contacts + Manual Work

Frustrated event organizer buried under paperwork and spreadsheets, representing manual sponsorship outreach inefficiencies.

Most event organizers start from scratch when selling sponsorships. They:

Search LinkedIn, Twitter, or Telegram groups for sponsor leads.
Build spreadsheets of contacts.
Send a handful of manual cold messages.

This approach fails because:

It’s too slow for the short timelines of event sales cycles.
Outreach volume is capped by Telegram restrictions.
Without follow-ups, 80% of opportunities are lost.

Step 1: Start with Verified Sponsor Data

Example of companies sponsoring and co-hosting past Web3 events, used by Spredo to help organizers target proven sponsors.

The first step to scaling sponsorship outreach is eliminating guesswork.

Instead of spending hours chasing contacts, start with a verified database of Web3 decision-makers — people who are responsible for sponsorships, BD, or partnerships at relevant companies.

This instantly cuts weeks of manual prep work.

Step 2: Track Past Sponsorship & Event Activity

Not all sponsors are equal. The fastest way to close deals is to target companies who have already sponsored or co-hosted Web3 events before.

With Spredo, organizers can see:

Which companies sponsored past Web3 events.
Which companies organized, hosted, or co-hosted events.
Repeat sponsors who consistently support side-events.
Co-hosts who may be open to partnerships or shared sponsorship sales.

This means event teams don’t waste time guessing. They can prioritize warm, proven prospects — sponsors and co-hosts with a track record of investing in events.

Step 3: Automate Outreach Sequences on Telegram

One cold DM is not enough. 70–80% of replies happen after a follow-up.

But manually following up with every lead is impossible at scale. This is where automated, safe Telegram sequences come in.

Outreach is paced safely to avoid bans.
Sequences stop automatically once a reply is received.
Both cold and warm (post-event, past sponsor re-engagement) sequences can run simultaneously.

Step 4: Track the Funnel from DM → Reply → Call → Closed Deal

The final piece is visibility. Too many teams lose track of sponsors after the first conversation.

With funnel tracking, event organizers can see exactly where every sponsor sits in the journey:

Cold DM sent
Reply received
Call booked
Deal closed

Combined with past event activity, organizers can also see which companies they’ve already closed deals with in the past, and which events those sponsors engaged in.

Realistic Example: From Zero to Sponsors in Two Weeks

Let’s say you’re organizing a Web3 side event for ETH CC:

Day 1: Upload your ideal sponsor list into Spredo and match contacts instantly.
Day 2–3: Launch Telegram outreach sequences across 2–3 accounts.
Day 4–7: First sponsor calls get booked.
Days 8–14: First deals are closed with sponsors, and spots are filling up!

With the right process, a two-week sales cycle is possible.

Why This Works for Web3 Events

Verified data means you start with the right sponsor contacts.
Past event activity lets you target sponsors and co-hosts who have already proven they buy or partner.
Automated outreach sequences scale your efforts without manual work.
Funnel tracking ensures no sponsor falls through the cracks.

Instead of scrambling, Web3 event organizers can consistently close sponsorships and focus on delivering great experiences for attendees.
