Corporations Save Money While Sponsoring the San Diego International Film Festival

Bottom Line Concepts Announces Partnership With The San Diego FIlm Foundation

​Bottom Line Concepts, LLC announces a partnership with the San Diego Film Foundation, best known for presenting The San Diego International Film Festival each October.

As part of the partnership, Bottom Line Concepts will donate a portion of new corporate client fees to The San Diego Film Foundation. This donation will serve as the corporate sponsorship of the San Diego International Film Festival on behalf of each new client. Bottom Line Concepts clients will receive all of the benefits of being a Corporate Sponsor of the San Diego International Film Festival.

Very simply, we partner with organizations and individuals committed to philanthropy: a charitable organization introduces us to its board members/donors and we help fund that charitable organization through the dollars we recapture and the prospective savings we structure for its benefactors. We are extremely excited to partner up with The San Diego Film Foundation and look forward to being charitable with both our time & money to better serve the community, culture, and people of San Diego County.

Ben Richman, President

Dale Strack, Chairman of the Board of The San Diego Film Foundation shared, "Having been on the business side for many years - I'm excited about Bottom Line's non profit funding model. It is a way for corporations to help the San Diego International Film Festival from income that they save, rather than adding a line item for non profit sponsorship. Bottom Line researches and implements corporate savings, their clients save money, and a portion of those savings provides sponsorships for non profits...so everybody wins. Bottom Line works with so many corporations that they know the best value out there for vendor contracts  - office supplies, utilities, credit cards - all of the line items that create overhead for corporations. This knowledge allows them to work with an organization's vendor list to implement cost savings."

Corporate Sponsorship of The San Diego International Film Festival comes with many benefits. The San Diego International Film Festival connects brands with professionals, executives, celebrities, patrons of the arts and other upscale consumers with a shared passion for cinematic storytelling. Their unique and immersive events include celebrity tributes, film premieres, VIP lounges and parties. Corporate Sponsors receive customized integrated brand exposure across a variety of platforms as well as opportunities for VIP entertainment and interaction with high end consumers.

Strack shared, "One of the things I hear from current Festival sponsors is that San Diego is a good test market with sophisticated, high tech savvy and discerning buyers. Companies also appreciate being a sponsor because they know it helps support our FOCUS ON IMPACT educational program that takes films on major social justice issues into the schools, helping the next generation come together on the issues that divide us. Sponsors also appreciate that we have grown from 3,000 attendees in 2012 to 25,000 attendees in 2016. Our corporate sponsors recognize a discerning audience base that has grown 700% in four years is a great market to reach."
