Every day in more than 80 countries around the world, tens of thousands of informed decision makers turn to Converge! Network Digest for reliable, intelligent coverage of the broadband networking industry.

Your company can reach these readers on a daily basis through Converge! Network Digest’s powerful and uniquely structured Sponsorship Program.  Our e-mail newsletters and our Web site do not display constantly changing ad banners from companies that are present one moment and gone the next.  Instead, our sponsors appear on an exclusive, long-term basis in our newsletters and on our Web site so they can build a relationship with and create a meaningful impression on our influential readers.

For detailed information, see the overview of our 2005 Sponsorship Program in printable Adobe Acrobat format.  (To download a free copy of the Adobe Acrobat Reader, click here.)

Summary of 2005 Sponsorship Program

A Unique Sponsorship Approach

Our Sponsorship Program allows companies to develop an extended presence and communicate a continuous message in a specific networking discipline of our publications.  To maximize effectiveness, we promote only one sponsor for each of our networking categories.  We offer long-term exclusive positioning  -- not pages cluttered with multiple "here one click, gone the next" ads as found on most Web sites and e-mail publications.  This gives our sponsors a much more effective means of building a relationship with and creating a meaningful impression on the top decision makers in the industry.

What’s Included in Sponsorship?

We have a limited number of exclusive sponsorship opportunities available.  All sponsorships include placement in our newsletters and Web site, giving every Sponsor the opportunity to reach both our newsletter and Web readers on a daily basis.  Each sponsor also receives Premium Directory placement in our company directories and the opportunity to place papers in our White Paper Center for a full year.

Premier Sponsorship

The exclusive Premier Sponsorship is a comprehensive direct marketing system that provides the most powerful means of communicating with our audience.  It offers a high visibility presence at the top and bottom of our daily and weekly e-mail newsletters, as well as several pages on our Web site.  It also includes the ability to market and sell directly to certain of our readers.  The Premier Sponsor’s marketing message appears in:

    Newsletters

  • The 468x60 banner at the top of every daily and weekly e-mail newsletter.
  • The Premier Sponsor marketing section at the end of every newsletter, which can contain a company logo, illustrative graphics, Web links and copy describing the company, product and conference announcements, seminars, and other marketing information determined by the sponsor.

    Web Site 

    Direct Marketing - Reader Registration Information

  • The Premier Sponsor will receive detailed contact information from some of the new readers of our newsletter, which can be used for your direct sales and marketing efforts.  This is a potential gold mine that could generate hundreds of highly qualified leads from service providers, enterprise customers, and system vendors.

Category Sponsorships

News, Directory and Search Sponsorships (Category Sponsorships) include placement in each e-mail newsletter and an exclusive position in subject-oriented sections of convergedigest.com.  Only one company may sponsor a category at a time, giving that company a reader's undivided attention.  A News or Directory Sponsor’s marketing message appears in:

    Newsletters

  • Your company logo, message, and links to your Web site in every daily and weekly e-mail newsletter.  The message may be a 25 word communication in HTML, which can be formatted with links to various locations on your Web site.  You can change this marketing message throughout your sponsorship to promote products, seminars, white papers, or any other subject you wish.
