The Intelligence That Closes Deals

Alchemy Agency

Your fully outsourced sponsorship department. One retainer.

Alchemy Agency is not a tool. It is not a report. It is a fractional Chief Sponsorship Officer, a dedicated sales execution team, and a proprietary AI intelligence platform — deployed on your behalf under a single monthly retainer. Intelligence-only platforms sell data and leave the burden of monetization on your internal team. Alchemy Agency assumes full responsibility for the revenue cycle, from asset valuation through deal closure through renewal.

SAA identifies the opportunity. RCG monetizes it.

What This Is — And What It Is Not

The distinction is critical: intelligence-only platforms sell data. Alchemy Agency sells revenue.

Alchemy Agency Is

  • A fully outsourced sponsorship department
  • A fractional Chief Sponsorship Officer
  • A dedicated sales execution team selling on your behalf
  • A proprietary AI intelligence platform working continuously
  • One monthly retainer covering the complete revenue cycle

Alchemy Agency Is Not

  • A subscription to an evaluation tool
  • "Three reports per month"
  • A dashboard you have to act on yourself
  • A consultant who hands you a plan and wishes you luck

The Four Pillars

The program mirrors the complete sponsorship lifecycle. No other offering on the market delivers all four under a single engagement.

Pillar 1 Intelligence — The SAA Platform

The AI engine. It provides the data foundation upon which all strategy and execution decisions are built.

Asset EvaluationsAI-powered valuations of all sponsorable inventoryUnlimited, on-demand

How AI + Human Expertise Work Together

This is the differentiator no competitor can replicate — a closed loop where every deal makes the next one sharper.

1
Identify
The SAA platform scans your inventory, benchmarks it against market data, and surfaces the highest-value prospects and pricing strategies.
2
Validate
Four decades of RCG deal-making judgment filters the AI output — which brands are actually in-market, which decision-makers respond to which approach, where the true negotiation leverage sits.
3
Execute
The execution team goes to market with precision — not spray-and-pray outreach, but targeted, data-backed pitches built to close.
4
Learn
Every closed deal, every rejection, every negotiation outcome feeds back into the platform, making the next recommendation more accurate.

Identify → Validate → Execute → Learn. Then the loop runs again.

Who This Is For

Organizations with valuable inventory that is being systematically under-monetized — no dedicated sales function, no market-rate pricing data, no structured pipeline, no renewal methodology. They cannot justify a $200,000+ executive hire, but they need executive-level results.

Progressive Municipalities

Cities and counties with significant sponsorable assets — venues, events, public spaces, naming opportunities — but no dedicated sponsorship infrastructure.

Mid-Market Sports Properties

Minor league teams, college athletics, regional venues, and emerging leagues generating $500K–$5M in sponsorship revenue that know they are underperforming.

Large-Scale Events & Festivals

Annual events with 25,000+ attendance that rely on sponsorship revenue but manage it reactively — leaving category exclusivity and activation revenue uncaptured.

High-Visibility Non-Profits

Organizations with strong brand equity and engaged audiences that have historically accepted below-market deals out of gratitude rather than strategy.

Qualifying Criteria

  • Current or potential annual sponsorship revenue of $500,000+
  • Ten or more distinct sponsorable assets or properties
  • An executive-level champion committed to sponsorship growth
  • Approved budget authority to invest in professional management
  • Regional or larger market reach

Start Here

Act Two — The Partnership

Alchemy Agency

$8,500 / month · invoiced engagement

The team takes the intelligence to market and captures the revenue the diagnostic identified — pipeline, proposals, negotiation, activation, renewal.
