Sales Strategy Goals for 2010 • Reward advertisers based on their TOTAL spend with us – regardless of which channel they choose to use (print, digital, both)! • Make it easy for customers to adjust their media blend based on current needs. • Get away from cross-channel “value add” (giving away online for print, etc.) • It helps advertisers get back to rate card value! • ENCOURAGE up-front schedule-based buying rather than ad hoc during the year. • Really position ourselves as a true multimedia company instead of print-centric.
2010 Sales Promotion According to our goals previously mentioned, we will be basing our sales promotions on Sponsorship level as follows: A customer’s discount level will be applied after Agency discount (if any). For example: Customer A purchases 3 Full Page ads at the $4205 (3x rate) = $12,615 $12,615 – 15% agency discount = $10,723 less 5% Bronze level discount = $10,187 Customer A does not have an agency? Then deduct 5% from $12,615 = $11,984.25
2010 Sales Promotion Guidelines: • Promotion is only valid for customers that submit insertion order by December 31st 2009! NO EXCEPTIONS! • If your customer only issues insertions orders by quarter or monthly --- then offer to send them a space contract so you can offer them the sales promotion. • CPA & MPA frequency discounts still applicable. • With the discount program, please ensure to not extend agency discounts to customers with no agency. • We will not pro-rate backward – sign up now for the best deal! • Promotion is subject to short-rate if customer fails to meet obligations: ENSURE TO STATE THIS CLEARLY ON ALL INSERTION ORDERS/SPACE CONTRACTS! • We will still accept the Stimulus Discount on all remaining 2009 issues and 2010 Buyer’s Guide OR • Customer can bundle any remaining new purchases in 2009 with their 2010 Media Buy to lock in a lower discounted rate for all of next year! • If customer chooses to apply Stimulus Discount on 2009 issues, these issues CANNOT be bundled into 2010.
