Sponsorship Options

Social Media Masters offers several unique opportunities for those organizations who want to do more then send attendees, including specific and sole sponsorship of activities or events during the program – or across the series.

The nature of social media generally precludes us from selling spots on the stage for direct sales pitches. Instead we’re looking for partners for whom we’ll provide strategic consulting to develop a personalized creative approach that will make the most of your participation before, during and after the conference with each sponsorship package.

Options are noted below and we are open to discussing other creative and valuable sponsorships that serve the interests of the participants. We are not hosting an expo or trade show floor.
