Congress Sponsorships:
Two-fers Too Good to Pass Up
Why just attend the Congress, when you can use it to your advantage in two ways: You can use it to reinforce your own knowledge and to reinforce your organization’s brand.
How can you do that? You have a number of options:
There are two Double Value Congress Sponsorships:
• The Gold Sponsorship
• The Silver Sponsorship
Each highlights your organization at BOTH the Spring Member Congress in March and the Fall Member Congress in October, effectively giving you year-long publicity.
The Spring Member Congress Sponsorships include:
• The Keynote Sponsorship (providing the visibility of introducing the Keynote Speaker and your organization to the delegates)
• The Coffee Break Sponsorship
• Lanyard Sponsorship: Taken—VetJobs
• Streaming Video: Taken—Boxwood
In addition, there is also a Delegate Packet Insert.
For information on pricing, please contact Peter Weddle at 203.964.1888 or director@employmentwebsites.org.
Don’t delay! These are extraordinary promotional opportunities and will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
Strategic Engagement with Ad Agencies
The Association has a number of Member Working Groups tackling various issues in our industry. We are pleased to announce the formation of a new Working Group called Strategic Engagement with Ad Agencies. The group will be co-chaired by Shelly Mudd at TopUSAJobs.com and Cindy Songne at Monster.com.
The mission statement for the group follows:
The goal of this working group – Strategic Engagement with Advertising Agencies – is to establish business practices which promote successful relationships between employment web sites and advertising agencies, to assist IAEWS members in their various forms of involvement with agencies (including assisting agencies in delivering their message to employment web sites), and to encourage and facilitate as many members as possible to participate in effective agency relationships, and thereby drive increased sales.
If you are interested in participating in the group, please contact Cindy at cindy.songne@monster.com, or Shelly at shelly@topusajobs.com.
Your IAEWS Member Benefits
Free Visibility for Your Press Releases and White Papers
Please don’t forget that IAEWS Members can have their press announcements, research reports and white papers posted on the IAEWS site.
Why bother? Because the IAEWS site (and its Press page, in particular) is now the first stop for journalists writing about our industry or looking for employment-related topics about which to write.
How does it work? Simply send your press announcement, white paper summary or extract to Peter Weddle (director@employmentwebsites.org), and he’ll see that it’s posted. (To aid in administration, please send Word documents only.)
