Make your request for sponsorship by putting words such as "We would be most grateful if you helped sponsor our event” give a detailed plan of what you intend on using the sponsorship money for, if the money if for painting your school, or sending the junior cricket team to Hong Kong for a Sixes tournament, then say so. Also quote your prices, as it will give that particular company an idea of what they are looking at.
Give out details of the number of participants and the kind of publicity that your event will get. Also state prestigious and influential people who are likely to attend.
