For Brands

Sampling that finally becomes predictable

  • You're an FMCG brand wanting to sample products at events
  • You plan at least 3-5 sampling activations per year

For Events

Sponsors that actually fit your event

  • You organize festivals, sports events, trade shows, or community events
  • You regularly receive brand inquiries or want to monetize more
The Problem

Sampling is powerful – but organizationally hell

Sampling via events is powerful, but execution is messy for brands and event teams alike.

Matches are manual or random

Brands search and events rely on inbound ? fit is mostly luck.

Coordination lives in inboxes

Email loops, changing contacts, and no single source of truth.

Volumes & logistics stay unclear

Timings, quantities, and responsibilities are guessed instead of planned.

No real distribution data

What was actually sampled (and what worked) is hard to measure.

Sampling is not a marketing gimmick.It's infrastructure.

The Solution

SponsorHive is the operating system between brand, event & logistics

Not another tool or dashboard. SponsorHive is the central coordination layer that connects all parties and finally structures sampling.

Central workspace

One place for briefings, shipping details, activations, and reporting

Connects all sides

Brands and events on one platform – no more email loops

Standardized workflows

From request to report – every step is defined

The Results

For Whom

SponsorHive is for you, if...

We start narrow on purpose: clear ICP, fast learning loops, real conversations.

Good fit

  • You're an FMCG brand wanting to sample products at events
  • You plan at least 3-5 sampling activations per year
  • You want to move away from Excel chaos and email coordination
  • You need real data on in-hand reach

Not a fit

  • You're looking for an influencer or social media platform
  • You need an event ticketing system
  • You want to send 100 samples once
  • You expect full-service agency work
