What They Don't Tell You About Sponsorships: Lessons from Roberta Vigilance

Baz Porter® Season 3 Episode 11

Have you ever stumbled upon a simple change that unfolded a world of opportunity? That's what happened to Roberta Vigilance when she shifted her language from "invest" to "sponsor," a pivot that transformed her from an aspiring event host to a sponsorship virtuoso. In our latest episode, we sit down with Roberta, whose expertise in securing sponsorships for events is matched only by her indomitable spirit. She shares with us her insightful journey and the sales strategies that made her a sought-after mentor in the event sponsorship domain. Through her passion and dedication, Roberta exemplifies how the right approach can turn challenges into triumphs.

Life's hurdles can either forge or break our paths, and for Roberta Vigilance, it's been a story of unwavering resilience. Faced with eviction, battling health issues, and navigating personal trials amidst the pandemic, she emerged more tenacious than ever. Her compelling tale is laced with emotional depth, detailing her experience from seeking solace in a community garden to reconciling with her mother and writing her book "How to Secure a Sponsor Successfully." Roberta's narrative is not just about survival; it's a beacon of hope, illustrating the strength that comes from adversity and the power of love—particularly for her son—as a motivator to persevere and thrive.

In this heart-to-heart, we don't just observe Roberta's journey; we connect with the core motivations that empower us all. Our conversation shifts to the significance of lifelong learning and how assumptions of knowledge can be the silent thieves of progress. We recount tales of personal drive, where the dreams we harbor for our children and the legacies we yearn to leave become our guiding stars. Roberta's mission to help others through her book and seminars interweaves with a father's dream of providing a secure future for his child. Their stories, seamlessly entwined, remind us that it's not just about building a life but creating a legacy that endures beyond our footsteps.
