As well as broadcast credentials, DMS is a marketing and sales consultancy specialising in sports and tourism marketing and management. We represent investors as well as sports property owners and tourism destinations, to ensure their development.
We specialize in consultancy, strategic planning and project management of sport and promotional events, including filming.
We plan, implement, manage sports marketing programs, events and engagement campaigns. We also devise sponsorship strategies for both those looking for sponsors or those wanting to invest.
In tourism, we promote destinations, operators and airlines, and one of our ‘sweet spots’ is the overlap between destinations, sporting events and the PR and filming of them. Some of our African-based promotional tourism projects include for Air Namibia, Ghana Airways, SAA, Air Botswana, Nationwide, SATourism (3D IMAX movie distributed internationally), Botswana Tourism, Namibian Tourism, Leading Lodges of Africa, Sun International, Southern Sun, Shamwari Game Reserve, Addo Elephant Reserve (SA), Hluhluwe Game reserve (KZN – SA), Tunisian Tourism Board, Sunair (Belgium) and Neckermann (Belgium).
Our sports marketing experience includes the acquisition of media and commercial rights to African premier football leagues; we represent, manage and develop major brands in all sports marketing activities then manage and develop global properties, including representation of broadcast rights in the Ugandan market.
We are active in sports venue management and marketing for established facilities.
Representing investors as well as property owners, we gain as much satisfaction from managing grassroots events as elite sport, and we have unique experience in the identification and organization of sport and health-related CSR investment programs.
In an increasingly cluttered and competitive industry, we understand that our customers require tangible standout results thus we offer a dedicated 24/7 service.
At DMS Ventures, we help our clients realize their vision by harnessing the universal passion for sport in the most relevant and effective way.
We pride ourselves in being experts at sports management consultancy and facilitating the development of sports management systems. This might be as simple as developing an interactive web site, database and e-newsletter.
At DMS we believe that managing the public relations strategy for a club, team, company or a federation might be as complicated as designing and evaluating sponsorship packages and the representation of rights – commercial or otherwise.
The major area currently within the sports marketing industry is sponsorship valuation and sports federations are increasingly being proactive in this area rather than allowing sponsors to dictate value.
We produce Preliminary Project Plans that will focus the vision, required outcomes and the objectives of the project and the Preliminary Project Plan will also suggest a process and any seed funding for the project. Depending on the project, the Preliminary Project Plan may be 4 or 40 pages and after you have read and discussed it you can decide whether or not to take the process to the next stage.
Another area we are expanding into is athlete, player and artist management. If you are looking for a personal manager, please contact us.
Ultimately, DMS Ventures brings together the people that make projects work!
