TO: NYSTA Supporters

The New York State Turfgrass Association's online platform for continuing education offers sponsors targeted promotion opportunities in our upcoming winter webinars and online archives. To keep our members safe, the NYSTA Board of Directors agreed to wait one more year for all in-person conferences and will once again be offering ten DEC compliant webinars from December 2021 through March 2022. Our last webinar series provided education and sponsor exposure to over 1,000 attendees!

What opportunities are available?
For the 2021-2022 webinar series, we are offering two premier sponsorships for each webinar at $1,000 each, and supporter sponsorships at $2,000 for inclusion in all ten webinars. For any company interested in doing a premier level sponsorship in addition to the supporter level, the $1,000 fee will be discounted to $500 for a total of $2,500.

How it works …
Premier Sponsorships
Your company will be given a dedicated slot in our webinar presentation. A set time of 1-2 minutes will be provided. Your creative team can then put together a recorded presentation and provide it to us for inclusion in the webinar. We are also able to include digital Hand-Outs in PDF format to all attendees. This will be included in both Live and Archive versions.

Due to DEC compliance regulations, attendees must remain seated for the entire presentation. This offers sponsors a great opportunity to create impactful communication with potential buyers who are actively engaged.

Supporter Sponsorships
Your company will be provided with multiple logo placements and links provided to users included in all 10 DEC accredited Live and Archived webinars.
