Sponsored Events

Put your brand in front of a real, engaged local crowd — not a scrolling thumb.

Online ads fight for half a second of a distracted scroll. A live event is the opposite — real people, present, paying attention, in your own city.

We organise sports and talent events and run your brand across them — so your message reaches an engaged local audience in person. It is also the one part of our roots we have carried forward from the marketing agency into DRS today.

Good to know

What kind of events?

Sports and talent events — the kind a local audience actually turns up for.

How does my brand appear?

Featured across the event; we plan the exact placements with you.

Is this the old bag marketing?

No — bag marketing is its own thing and it is still running. See HyperLocal Network Marketing. Sponsored Events is the live-event side of the same idea: real, local, in-person reach.
