			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Fritz,</p>
<p>My organization relies on sponsors to contribute products and services to your fundraiser every year. Does FormDecor sponsor charitable events? How would I go about requesting FormDecor&#8217;s support?</p>
<p>Signed,</p>
<p>Ivana Freeby</p>
<p>Dear Ivana: You are definitely not alone! FormDecor receives requests every week to sponsor different events. By all means, feel free to send your request! Of course, FormDecor is not able to contribute to every project, but we know that our donated product and services can go a long way toward raising money for charity or building better relationships within our industry or community. FormDecor strives to make a positive (and stylish!) contribution whenever possible. Here are a few guidelines to assist you if you contact FormDecor for sponsor support.</p>
<p>1) Submit your sponsorship request in writing via email to <a href="mailto:info@formdecor.com?subject=Sponsorship%20Request">info@formdecor.com</a>. This facilitates the timely review of your request.</p>
<p>2) Are there any advertising or networking benefits being offered to sponsors? Make sure these are clearly stated in your email request.</p>
<p>3) Does your organization have a budget to cover FormDecor&#8217;s actual costs? Though a full sponsorship may not be possible, your organization may qualify for a significant rental discount.</p>
<p>4) Charitable organizations that benefit disadvantaged children or the arts are often favored by FormDecor.</p>
<p>5) Industry or community events that allow FormDecor to showcase directly to potential clients receive more consideration. ROI is always a factor in any successful business collaboration.</p>
<p>6) Does your event allow FormDecor to create a distinct branded area with sponsor signage? Opportunities that allow FormDecor to distinguish itself from other vendors are given preference.</p>
<p>7) Have you allowed sufficient time to plan your event? Last-minute requests are often more difficult to accommodate.</p>
<p>If your sponsorship needs fall within the above parameters, we welcome a discussion about how FormDecor can help you achieve your goals. There are a lot of wonderful, meaningful events out there, and we are thankful for our ability to contribute to even a few. Good luck with your fundraiser!</p>

<p>A: We would love to feature your event on our website! We just LOVE to see the finished look of our clients&#8217; events &#8211; complete with FormDecor furnishings, of course! Sharing your events with FormDecor allows us to promote your style through our furniture. We will feature your event on the FormDecor blog&#8230; then you can easily link it to your own or even Tweet about the mention. Same for showcasing your event in our bi-monthly eNEWS &#8211; what a great way to showcase your talent!!!</p>
<p>Have an event to share? &#8230; Go ahead and send a few images to communications@formdecor.com. We like to see detail shots as well as photos that show the whole lounge area you created with rentals from FormDecor. Don&#8217;t forget to show any of our fabulous accessories that really complement the scene. And also include some event details. Our Social Media coordinator, Rachael, will be in touch to gather any additional info. We&#8217;d be very happy to also include the images on FormDecor Facebook page, with the images and event credited to you&#8230; giving you yet another outlet to promote your style.</p>
<p>Let FormDecor present your vision and execution of how you Rent Modern.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Fritz,</p>
<p><strong>Q:</strong>  Why should I &#8220;CONNECT&#8221; or &#8220;LIKE&#8221; or &#8220;LINK&#8221; to FormDecor on all those social media sites?  I know your website address&#8230; isn&#8217;t that enough?</p>
<p><strong>A:</strong>  First of all, I’m glad you’re familiar with FormDecor.com!…  a comprehensive resource for your furniture rental needs.  Admittedly, for some people that IS enough!  But most of our clients are in very competitive industries that require them to be <strong>fresh</strong>, <strong>creative</strong> and <strong>FAST</strong>.  With this in mind, FormDecor has developed an integrated social media strategy that serves you, our valued client, with up-to-the-minute ideas and resources.  </p>
<p>On <strong><a href="http://twitter.com/#!/formdecor">TWITTER</a></strong> &#8212; great design tips, fun discoveries and timely updates from us in a real-time, concise and laid-back format.  If you “like” us on <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/FormDecor-Modern-Furniture-Rental/108393682518524">FACEBOOK</a></strong>,… be the first to be notified of new products and relevant news &#8212; still very casual, but with more information, images and links.  Our <strong><a href="http://www.youtube.com/FormDecor">YOU TUBE</a> </strong>outreach will eventually provide you with useful video tours and commentary.  With video, we look forward to showing you our products and our operation in action!</p>
<p>Relationships are SO important, and <strong><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/pub/fritz-williams/7/944/731">LINKEDIN</a></strong> helps us foster strong professional associations.  Join our network of event/exhibit designers, set decorators and event planners and take advantage of  the referral opportunities. And lastly, but certainly not least, <strong><a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/formdecor-la-mirada">YELP</a></strong> allows you to relate your experience of FormDecor service for others to read.  Obviously we would LOVE it if you would write us a glowing review on Yelp&#8230; we welcome ALL constructive feedback as we are dedicated to making your furniture rental experience as trouble-free as possible.</p>
<p>SO… maybe you think all you need is a catalog.  But it would be a shame if you missed out on all the other ideas and resources offered through our different social media outlets.  <strong><em>Connect with us now to join the FormDecor phenomenon. </em></strong> And don’t be left out!</p>
