Not half-bad as a revenue strategy. As an event organizer (the Startup Conference is May 30, check out http://thestartupconference.com http://thestartupconference.com and contact me if your startup raised money in 2013, we'll put you on stage in front of 1,000 people), the one thing I receive over and over are offers from completely unqualified "partners" and sponsors that don't even bother to check who our audience is. At that point, I stopped answering to the worst offenders. I like the concept of a branded page for the sponsors, tying together multiple events. Serious sponsors have a long-term view and will have a methodical approach to sponsoring multiple related events over an entire year.
