120-Day Marketing Plan
A long-range marketing roadmap that builds momentum early and fills your field without last-minute pressure.
Successful events don’t rely on a final push—they win by starting early. The 120-Day Marketing Plan is designed to spread promotion across four intentional months, giving your event time to build awareness, trust, and urgency without overwhelming your team.
This plan focuses on consistency over intensity, so marketing feels manageable and effective.
What the 120-Day Marketing Plan Is
The 120-Day Marketing Plan is a structured, four-month promotional framework built specifically for sporting and fundraising events. It shows you what to promote, when to promote it, and why it matters at each stage of the event lifecycle.
Rather than chasing registrations at the end, this plan helps demand grow naturally.
How It’s Structured
The plan is broken into four clear phases, each with a distinct marketing goal:
Days 120–90: Awareness & Foundation
Event announcement, beneficiary story, save-the-date messaging, and early sponsor visibility.
Days 90–60: Credibility & Momentum
Sponsor spotlights, golfer benefits, testimonials, and early registration incentives.
Days 60–30: Conversion & Urgency
Registration pushes, contest highlights, pricing deadlines, and social proof.
Days 30–Event Day: Final Push & Clarity
Last-chance messaging, logistics reminders, weather hype, and event-week content.
Each phase builds naturally into the next—no random posts, no wasted effort.
