Message to Promoters
Are
you a Promoter looking to gain more exposure for your events and increase your
ticket sales? Then you’re at the right place – but the good news doesn’t stop
there, our platforms don’t just help you get more exposure and sell more
tickets during the Carnival season, we offer a year-round ecommerce platform,
along with our social media channels, that can help
connect you directly to your target market!
The
countdown for this year’s road march is on, and we are excited to share
‘Everything Bahamas Carnival®’ with all of our Bahamian people and visitors
alike.
This
year is set to be even bigger and better than previous years – with people
reaching out to us from around the globe wanting to get involved and experience
a taste of what playing ‘Mas in Paradise’ is really like!
To
help all those involved see an even bigger return on investment this year, we
have created a website that is not only the home of ‘Everything Bahamas
Carnival®’ for those seeking more information, but it is also a powerful
ecommerce platform where those involved in Bahamas Carnival® can promote their
offerings right to their primary target demographic.
To
get involved and officially be part of Bahamas Carnival®, we have several
offerings and options this year to suit your needs.
License
to use the Bahamas Carnival® logo and be an official Bahamas Carnival®
vendor:
To
become an official Bahamas Carnival® vendor and be featured on our online
platforms, you must apply for an annual license through Bahamas Carnival Ltd.
and pay the appropriate associated fees. Once we have reviewed your application
and received your fee we will promptly issue you an ‘Official Bahamas Carnival®
2019 License Kit’ which will include the following:
- The official license
- Variations of the logo for you
to use on your promotional material
- ‘Who we are’ write-up
- Listing on the website for
products or services offered by your company
- Mentions on our digital
platforms
To
make sure that being part of this year’s Bahamas Carnival® was as accessible as
possible for all businesses, no matter how large or small, we created the
following license fee structure:
Company Type:
Associated Fee:
Micro
Company (10 or less employees)
$100 BSD
Small
Company (11 to 49 employees)
$250 BSD
Mid-sized
Company (50 to 249 employees)
$400 BSD
Large
Company (250 or more employees)
$550 BSD
Organizations
and Stakeholders
$10,000 BSD
Furthermore, if you would like to fully utilize
the offerings of our ecommerce platform by being able to sell your merchandise
or tickets to your upcoming events, or be booked for events directly through
the website, a 10% royalty fee from all items sold through our platforms would
apply.
For this 10% royalty fee, you would also receive
marketing boosts from our team and mentions across all of our social media
platforms promoting your offerings right to your intended clientele.
If
you would like to boost your potential sales even further, we also offer an
‘ArtistSpotlight’ page option to those who purchase an annual Bahamas Carnival®
license which starts at a rate of roughly $300 for a three month period – this
is on a first come, first served basis as spaces are limited.
Alternatively,
if you do not wish to become an official affiliated vendor for 2019 by
purchasing an annual license, but you would still like to be listed on our
official Bahamas Carnival® business directory through our website, there is an
option to pay a fee of $15 BSD per month to be included in our directory.
This
fee only enables your company to be listed on the official Bahamas Carnival® website,
and does not include the ability to use the Bahamas Carnival® logo or sell any
merchandise under the guise as being part of Bahamas Carnival Ltd. – to do so
without paying the appropriate licensing fee could result in legal action being
taken against your company for doing so.
If
you simply want to promote an event and feel that none of the above options
suit your current needs, you may submit your event flyer and details of the
event to us to be added to our official Bahamas Carnival® events calendar –
however with this option your event will be added to the events calendar and
given a mention in our social media stories ONLY – this option comes with no
extra promotional or marketing help from Bahamas Carnival® – to have your
event featured on the website or featured in a post on our social media
platforms and to enjoy the full benefits of our marketing and promotional team
you must purchase the annual license mentioned above.
Don't
miss out on this great opportunity to increase your bookings and sales all year
round, but especially during the feteing months of February, March, April and
May!
Thank
you again for getting in touch with us – if you have any further questions
please do not hesitate to ask.
The
countdown is on – join us this year in letting the world know what it’s really
like to play ‘Mas in Paradise’!
Cheers,
The
Bahamas Carnival Team
