Simplification Explanation
Hidden value MDGI might not have explored, which would significantly increase funding avenues
BEFORE MUSEUM OPENING
MDGI can offer exclusive, timeboxed naming rights to exhibits!
Other museums often name exhibits after sponsors, which preserves the solemnity of the educational exhibit without introducing any obtrusive ads, e.g. “Samsung Planetarium”
All Projects 1-7 are potential sponsorship opportunities, with tasteful product placement possible for AV 18.0 Project 4: Things of Beauty, where we can add sponsor items as additional filters / wearable items.
Historically, exhibit naming rights are quite significant: Museum exhibit naming right prices vary significantly but can range from $10,000 for smaller interactive exhibits to $500,000 or more for entire galleries depending on length of naming rights and size of exhibit.
To enable this, WW understands there would be a delay in gathering that additional funding. That’s where we can be more flexible, as it might take time to find sponsors for the named exhibits.
However that also opens up making the exhibit more spectacular in case a sponsor is willing to support the exhibit; or at least guarantee fresh content and regular maintenance.
To add, are you looking for more sponsors? We are able to connect you with boat sales companies in the Philippines who might be willing to become financial sponsors, and it’s likely we haven’t tapped more potential sponsors
Tronqued Boats, Europa Yachts, etc Big logistic companies would want to tie their story with the historic galleon story, as galleons were the original logistic company of that era: Grab DHL 2GO etc They could either sponsor a silver galleon or a named exhibit.
The “Download Photo via QR Code” link can lead to a webpage to ask users to sign up (marketing) and we can sell the ad space. That ad space has value for brands, as it will be passed around by families sending the photo to each other. There can be a primary “large ad” sponsor. If there’s no major sponsor yet it can showcase upcoming museum events
Think: when you pay with Gcash, they show you an ad.
Whether that goes to us as supplier as part of the payment, or again it is a monetisation opportunity, that’s still untapped value.
QR code access can also be a gateway to the signing up to the Museo Del Galeon newsletter.
As a tech company it doesn’t hold a lot of value since our clients don’t really align with the general public, but there’s still value to us.
Depending on how much you ask us to discount, we can explore these options.
AFTER MUSEUM OPENING
WW can help MDGI set up an online museum store and even a way to do online ticket sales due to our e-commerce solution, Trailblaze (e-commerce store for Android, iOS and Web)
The Tate Museum offers merchandise, memberships (friend of museum, patron of museum, lifetime memberships), and museum and event tickets (both member and public rate)
Building this from scratch is a huge 5-7M PHP expense to have Web, Android and iOS museum apps We offer this at a fraction of the cost, with a monthly license AND it’s already built, only needing customisation. The only thing we’d need to build for museum tickets is the QR code scanning feature. Everything else is ready We could further reduce this cost by WW earning a % of ticket fees that would have been paid to an e-commerce platform anyway at no cost to MDGI (e.g. Shopify Advance - but Shopify doesn’t even have mobile apps, whereas we do)
Learn (connect to Events) This can then be connected to third party sellers like Klook
How will people buy tickets right now? How do we avoid overcrowding the museum on launch?
By offering online ticket sales with timeboxed windows, we preserve the museum experience for everyone.
Related to the Museum Store, WW can help MDGI built specifically-branded souvenir items.
We can help design souvenirs that are more customized to the actual museum experience. Other museums may sell t-shirts and hoodies with their logo, or generic shirts of microscopes and dinosaurs. MDGI can go beyond this by selling t-shirts, tote bags, postcards, calendars, etc. with imagery of specific iconic elements within the museum (the central ship, the cannons, the navigation game, the language-matching game)
In return, we’d receive a cut of the sales on these items, scaling based on the amount of input we gave, including designing the merchandise, and building elements of the original exhibit into the design references.
WW can also help MDGI sell educational memberships and set up a donation-powered or members only access online community using our community platform, Campgrounds
This unlocks MDGI access not just for those who are physically able to visit the museum, but to history buffs worldwide “Virtual Access”
We have prepared a live demo for you!
Memberships feel real when you are actually a member of something, not just in name, but when you are part of an actual community.
This also handles communicating with all of your Museum Members - not just here, but worldwide!
We’ll show you a demo of our platform Campgrounds during this call. Campgrounds is already running with 30k users for another community. Membership can grant members access to an online historical community, and that can be donation based (pay what you want) or a small membership fee, which will go towards the upkeep of the museum.
Those people can buy discounted museum tickets also. Member Prices: 50% Off or Free Digital Tickets Annually
Friends of Museo Del Galeon Community
Tiered membership levels (“Friends,” “Patrons,” etc.) with different benefits (some digital, some in-person). Regular communication: newsletters, blogs, postings, exclusive content. Digital engagement / events: online webinars, Q&A sessions, sometimes virtual tours or members’ previews. Volunteer or participatory roles: members contribute content, help with events, or help with projects (digitization, crowdsourcing, etc.). Online platforms / forums / social media: spaces for members to interact with each other and the institution. Donations / fundraising campaigns linked to particular projects (acquisitions, conservation, exhibitions). Private museum tours available only to members and free access to events for members Accessibility and flexibility: monthly payment options, membership without requiring in-person visits, discounted tickets, digital-only options. WW can lock in an exclusivity deal for MDGI’s tech endeavours moving forward.
This could be applied to a variety of roles and uses, depending on need.
One example would be exclusivity for future software development projects, including future exhibits and website development. WW has an extensive range of software, design, IT and consulting specializations, and will be able to handle the core of nearly any IT-related efforts moving forward, covering both in Museum (new exhibits, new features to existing exhibits) and outside (website development and maintenance, various custom digital promotion and marketing efforts. ).
Another example could be exclusivity for system maintenance of the digitally-enhanced exhibits, with a standard retainer locked in month-on-month for 2 or more years.
A third example could be MDGI hiring WW as its official technical advisor with a function similar to a CTO. WW would advise MDGI on all its digital strategies, and check feasibility on plans. The onboarding of WW would also assist MDGI in selling itself as the country’s most dynamic, forward-thinking museum.
If we do this, we can definitely give MDGI sweetheart rates based on volume work.
