Local and Small Businesses
In funding the festival, we fund the development of shared-profit companies who's purpose is to, among other things, fund the festival.
Which results in an abundance of activities throughout seattle, that attract visitors while giving the locals much needed fee-free fun year-round....leaving them with more money to spend.
2. We fund the end of the sale's tax...
establishing another reason for people to travel to and spend in seattle, raising your sales and profits.
3. Our activities center on developing people's interests which mean more buying.
4. A more hospitable and exciting city means more people traveling to and moving to Seattle....resulting in more people buying buying buying...
5. A free outlet for your employees to enjoy themselves and de-stress from the work day
ALSO,
If you promote our activities you are encouraged to do so with those in mind, which most closely associate your business offerings with our program elements....this reminds people that they can learn about what is happening with us by coming to you...perhaps connecting with like minded people in the process.
AND,
You can develop your own offerings to
create an even more intimate association between what you offer and the festival....the only catch is that it cannot directly promote you, either by using your offerings to the exclusion of a possible competitors, nor by plastering the venue with your promotional materials/messages.
It does require some cleverness, but if you can manage it, then the costs of your efforts are covered by us.

There will also be games between businesses, and of their related matters specifically, but still no direct promotions....Think...
