Negotiation isn’t about “meeting in the middle.” It’s about understanding.
Our latest post breaks down tactical empathy (inspired by Chris Voss) for sponsorship deals at live events—from marathons to expos.

What it looks like in practice:

Ask goals-first questions (audience, outcomes, timing)

Label what you hear: “It sounds like engaging first-time attendees is the priority.”

Align the package to their pressures and KPIs

Result? Fewer miscommunications, smoother delivery, and more repeat sponsors.

If your sponsorship team is using Slack, email, and cloud folders to manage partnerships… you’re not alone—and that’s the problem.

These tools were built for general communication, not the complexity of sponsorships. They don’t track deliverables. They don’t show who’s responsible. And they definitely don’t tell you when something slips through the cracks.

At Trak, we talk to teams every week who are managing millions in sponsorship assets across a patchwork of threads, chains, and file links. The result? Missed deadlines, miscommunication, and wasted time.

Sponsorship deserves more than a shared folder and a group chat.

We just published a new blog on this exact issue:
Slack, Email, and the Chaos of Sponsorship Collaboration

It covers why traditional tools aren’t cutting it—and what you can do instead.

🚀 Future of Sponsorships, Stadiums & Storytelling

Just back from the Horizon Summit at Levi’s Stadium, where AI, fan culture, and seamless experiences are redefining the game. A few key takeaways:

🧠 Intelligent Stadiums → AI is about unlocking people’s potential, not replacing them.

🎥 Content + Context → Personalized storytelling at scale is the new standard.

📣 Fan Experience = Product → Fans crave connection, not just wins.

🔄 Partnerships Start Inside → Alignment drives real ROI.

💥 AI is the Foundation → The real question: What can an AI-first business do that we couldn’t before?

At Trak, we’re building smarter systems and storytelling for this future.
