Marion to Bermuda Cruising Yacht Race
Sponsorship
In the past, the Race book was distributed only a few weeks before the race. This year, we expect to publish the 2011 Race Book with Notice of Race EARLY - by February 2011. This provides ample opportunity for maximum visibility and exposure to all advertising sponsors. Distribution/Circulation to approximately 1500 people, PLUS bonus distribution at the March 19-20 Safety at Sea Symposium, with expected circulation of 400 copies.
The Race book is intended to not only be a keepsake of memories for the 2011 competing Skippers and Crew but also, because of its early publication and high caliber content, will serve as a useful planning and offshore prep guide and resource that will be saved and referred to for years to come as well.
To reach our targeted EARLY publish date (Feb 2011) - we need your Insertion Order and Ad Material by the end of October or very early November. Help us help you get more exposure by signing up soon!
You may complement your print promotion program by integrating online messaging as well:
- Monthly COMPASS eNewsletter - Circulation over 2900 targeted/interested sailing community, and growing. Our newsletters deliver a 32% open rate and a 21% Click-Through rate! This is a very engaged audience.
- Website Advertising - the NEW website was launched on September 1st and delivers your message to an average of 928 unique visitors per month, who spend about 5 minutes per session and view multiple pages in the site.
