Why You Should Partner With The Film
One of the themes central to This Business Of Autism is the theme of corporate social responsibility (CSR). Put simply, today’s consumers are looking for more than just high-quality products and services when selecting a company with whom to do business. They are holding corporations accountable for effecting social change with their business beliefs, practices and profits.
A 2017 study by Cone Communications found that more than 60 percent of Americans hope businesses will drive social and environmental change in the absence of government regulation. The majority of consumers surveyed (87 percent) indicated they would purchase a product because a company supported an issue they care about. In addition to consumer demand for CSR practices, today’s top talent demands that companies have a clearly defined CSR strategy. No longer are competitive compensation packages enough to bring in the best employees, but a company’s CSR strategy plays a critical role in recruiting, retention, and reputation.
By partnering with This Business Of Autism, your company can demonstrate its committment to supporting small businesses with a social mission. Customizable sponsorship packages consist of inclusion on the film’s website, online and social media exposure, experiential marketing (onsite presence such as signage, marketing materials, event access and product sampling opportunities), inclusion in press releases and marketing materials, promotions packages, private screenings, inclusion in advertising and more.
A partnership with This Business Of Autism is especially appropriate for brands that have demonstrated inclusion and diversity initiatives, support socially responsibile enterprises, and are committed to emerging economic development models that reduce the burden on taxpayers while providing meaningful employment opportunities to the neurodiverse community.
