THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS

When did you last have the chance to tell 12,000 marketers about your product and services?

Sponsoring a Marketing Association event is a fantastic way to raise your company’s profile, engage with the MA’S members and showcase your expertise to New Zealand marketers. The MA team will ensure that you enjoy all the benefits of association with the right event, targeted at the right delegates, with a promotional package that underpins your marketing strategy.

Each year, new sponsors join the MA network – this year, the MA was delighted to welcome Fairfax Media as exclusive sponsors of the Network of Executive Marketers and Equifax as new sponsors of the Smarter Data Conference. Here’s what they had to say about the experience: “Sponsoring the Network of Executive Marketers (NEM) is an opportunity for Fairfax Media to support growth and help local talent thrive. An important part of this is being able to connect senior marketers and facilitate those conversations. We’re excited to support the NEM events (which were kicked off by Betty Li of Netflix). The MA team are dedicated, passionate and fantastic to work with. We’re proud to be a partner. ” Grant Torrie Acting CMO - Fairfax Media New Zealand “Smarter Data is a very wellestablished event and a must for data professionals to have in their calendars. Therefore, as a data solutions provider, sponsoring the event was the perfect way for us to engage with our target audience and it exceeded expectations with regard to brand exposure, leads generated and ROI. The MA team were also great to work with and just made it really easy organising everything.” Darron Jermy Head of marketing services NZ, Equifax Another new sponsorship option is the popular Sunrise Sessions. Free for members to attend, these workshops are delivered by suppliers who value the opportunity to share their expertise with MA’S members. “We had the great pleasure of working with the team at the MA to host a Sunrise Session around virtual and augmented reality. From the outset, they were willing to go to all lengths to make this a successful event for us. We wanted to showcase some demos and they helped accommodate us in terms of space and equipment. The event was well organised, attended and well received with great feedback from our team and attendees. “ Sam Ramlu Managing director, Method Studios A special thank you is due to MA’S two principal business partners, New Zealand Post and Ubiquity, for their ongoing support and involvement. Both have shown true commitment to the New Zealand marketing community. New Zealand Post are also premier sponsors of the Direct Marketing Conference and the NZ Direct Marketing Awards. “Ubiquity has enjoyed a strong partnership with the Marketing Association for over four years, first as a sponsor of the Brainy Breakfast Series and more recently as a principal business partner. Being associated with events of the calibre of the Brainy Breakfast series has been great for raising the profile of Ubiquity amongst the marketing community. Our involvement has also enabled us to learn what resonates with the Kiwi marketers, allowing us to incorporate this into our marketing automation products and services. “ Nathalie Morris Managing director, Ubiquity
