Benefits Of Sponsorship
Why Should You Consider Sponsoring An Event?
Sponsorship gets you a solid return on investment. You get to approach your target audience, increase your sales and get a list of leads to follow up afterwards. Event sponsorship is a deal with a lot of benefits. Moreover, it shows how active you are in the market and also you set a benchmark with your presence.
Pre-Conference Awareness
Your sponsorship benefits start months before the conference does and include an ad in the IAED Journal of Emergency Dispatch which is delivered to 81,000+ members worldwide, your website link and logo listed on the NAVIGATOR website, and a special sponsor "Thank You" on our social media platforms, which see over 49,000 views annually.
Weeks Before Conference
In the weeks before NAVIGATOR starts, sponsorship benefits will include an email we send to our attendees notifying them of your sponsorship status, recognition in the NAVIGATOR mobile app, special sponsor even social media posts highlighting your company, and we can provide your hashtags and any social media links to our followers if provided.
During Navigator Awareness
During the conference, awareness of your brand will be promoted through a static slide of sponsors before the keynote speaker during both General Sessions, sponsor recognition printed on event signage, lead-retrieval through our integrated app, and social media posts for any event you sponsor.
Post-NAVIGATOR
After NAVIGATOR, benefits of sponsorship include access to our lead-retrieval app, another dedicated "Thank you" social media post for your support of the conference, a network of new contacts and organizations to work with in the future, and access to our attendee lists.
Get to know decision-makers from all over the country as they look for resources to improve their agencies, no matter the size of their center, the area they serve, or which emergency service they dispatch for.
NAVIGATOR attendees have reported that 24.6% of them have over 21 years of experience in the comm. center, 32.5% of them have between 11 and 20 years of experience, 20.1% of them have between 6 and 10 years of experience, and 19.3% have between 1 and 5 years of experience. 39% of NAVIGATOR attendees have reported that they are in a leadership position.
