Maximizing Online Advertising Revenue: Packaging, Pricing and Selling Online Advertising and Sponsorships

Order this 90-minute webinar today, co-sponsored by Mequoda and SIPA, and discover new opportunities for making money with your online content.

Dear Publishing Colleague,

“Change is everywhere.  You can see it among competitors in any market your advertisers target, and in the readers your media serves.”

“Whether you sell local ads to restaurants, multimillion dollar multimedia packages to major national advertisers, or national ads to hobby product companies, every year you are challenged to find new clients and persuade them to change their spending.”

“A media company that understands and executes the sales and marketing of advertising with excellence will gain sales and market share over time, growing nearly without limits.”

So says Dan Ambrose, the industry’s leading authority on capturing new revenue streams and the challenges of selling integrated programs, including advertising and sponsorships online, in print, related events and custom publishing.

Dan should know.  He worked on the founding of iVillage.com, About.com, MediaBistro.com, and Beliefnet.com. He has consulted with Primedia Magazines, Smithsonian, Children’s Television Workshop, and many others.

He directed marketing, sales and administrative management of multi-magazine advertising packages for Hearst’s largest and most important clients, running approximately 3,500 advertising pages annually.

And Dan was also responsible for the creation of the first “Electronic Rate Card,” on computer disk, which was used by advertising media planners to instantly price Hearst magazine packages.

There’s more to Dan’s illustrious career, but you get the idea. He is one of the magazine industry’s most talented sales coaches, and has literally written the book on Internet sales.

Once again, as he did last year to the enthusiastic praise of publishing industry colleagues like you, Dan has agreed to share his latest insights into the world of online advertising sales.

He will reveal some his most valuable strategies for making money with online advertising in this 90-minute webinar on CD co-sponsored by Mequoda and the Specialized Information Publishers Association (SIPA).
