MATCHBOX DEMO DAYS
Make some serious dollars for your organization.
Build stronger relationships with industry partners while providing a valuable service to members.
Vendors provide valuable products and services to association members, and their sponsorship is an important source of non-dues revenue. But helping industry partners build relationships with association members can be challenging, especially if it’s limited to the annual tradeshow.
To give you an advantage, Matchbox has created the Demo Days digital initiative to support successful interactions between your members and industry partners throughout the year – and generate some seriously game-changing revenue!
Sometimes called a partner showcase or solution showcase, the Demo Days digital initiative is essential for organizations with affiliated solution providers, integrated technologies, corporate members, or other valued partners that you want to highlight to your community.
Your industry partners will be excited to sponsor this unique event that is proven to deliver high-intent sales opportunities from members that are ready to purchase. A Demo Days series is the key to exponentially growing non-dues and sponsorship revenues. Now, Matchbox has packaged our expertise, professional services and our purpose-built platform to deliver this game-changing initiative for your organization!

SUCCESS STORY
Seeing a need from members for information on technology solutions, ASAE, the American Society of Association Executives, asked themselves, rather than having an “expo hall” that runs alongside an existing education experience, what would happen if they created a dedicated online event experience for buyers?
For solution seekers, it provides the convenience of a curated list of demos all in one place on one day. For solution providers, it turned out to be one of the highest value direct marketing opportunities ASAE could possibly offer. Demo Days has proven to be so successful for ASAE, its members, and industry partners, that it is now offered 10 times per year to showcase different solution types and has created a sustainable new non-dues revenue channel for the organization!
