SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
ADS is again offering sponsorships for many of the functions and events that take place at its Annual Meeting. Sponsorships are available to all members, Manufacturers and Suppliers, and provide a unique opportunity to create added visibility and name recognition for your company, products and services.
Sponsorships for each of the individual functions and events noted below will be on a first-come, first-served basis. You can select and pay for your sponsorship when registering for the meeting. If questions, contact Jacque Knight at ADS Headquarters at (678) 303-2973 or jknight@kellencompany.com.
Sponsor Guidelines
These guidelines are being established to ensure equity and a level playing field for all ADS members.
- Sponsorship of Diamond, Emerald, Ruby and Sapphire events cannot occur by the same company in consecutive years, unless it is available after September 17. For example, if a company purchased a Diamond sponsorship in 2006, they cannot purchase a Diamond sponsorship in 2007, unless it is still available for purchase after the September 17 deadline.
- Sponsorship limited to one (1) event per company per meeting.
- All sponsorships are based on a first-come, first-served basis, taking into consideration the information contained in Point 1 above.
- All promotions will be provided by ADS as outlined in the Sponsor Levels and Benefits document. No give-aways allowed.
