Promotional licensing is an important part of stepping towards shifting the focus from rigid, standardized and centralized systems towards an economic paradigm that champions individual autonomy and empowerment. This strategy is not just a key to unlock the doors of sustainable global scalability but also an instrument for fostering a culture of shared success and community-based growth.
Promotional licensing extends beyond being a strategic tool for procuring necessary funds or generating a loyal base of supporters. It encapsulates the belief that each individual should have a voice and an opportunity to contribute to and benefit from the economic activities they support.
Promotional Licensing: A Powerhouse for Growth
Promotional licensing builds upon traditional licensing models by adding an extra dimension — the active promotion of a company's message by the buyer of the license. This creates a dynamic ecosystem of loyal advocates and incentivized backers that directly contribute to the company's success.
The Power of Advocacy
In the promotional licensing model, the licensee buys a license, and shares their reasons for the purchase with others. A strong review and ambassador-like recommendation that amplifies the sales of the product. This commitment transforms them from passive investors to engaged advocates. They become invested in the company's mission, motivated to share its story, and empowered to fuel its growth.
The Reward of Royalties
In recognition of this effort, the company pays a royalty on the gross revenue made in part thanks to the promotional efforts of these buyers. This creates a unique dynamic where the more revenue the company makes, the higher the rewards for those who helped achieve that growth. In this way, promotional licensing creates a mutually beneficial cycle of success — the company's increased value leads to higher license prices and trust in their remaining licenses, allowing them to raise more funds.
The Promise of Accountability
Companies are only able raise funds that they have an immediate need for and can be put to work to make more money, growing their revenue and enabling them to pay their royalties. This then increase their value and ability to raise more money. Buyers, who become active promoters of the company, are incentivized to see it succeed. They know that the money they're investing will be put to work effectively, they understand what the company needs to achieve its goals, and they are actively helping it get there. In return, the company is held accountable to deliver on its commitments.
A Cohesive Ecosystem
The International Licensing Organization's partnership with ILOCX.com epitomizes this approach. ILOCX is designed to guide listings towards success. The structure provided through promotional licensing ensures that raised funds are properly used, and revenue generation is rewarded.
