Section sponsorships

Put your name on something useful to Berks County.

Put your name on the local news, the jobs board, the events, the deals, the classes, or the help that people across Berks County use every day. They come for the news, a job or a weekend plan, and they see your business every time. One sponsor per section, on every page of that section.

Public radio calls this underwriting. A festival calls it the title sponsor.

Six sections. One name on each.

Pick the one that fits your business. Your name goes on every page of it for the year.

News Desk

Help keep Berks County informed. Connect your business with the local news people come here to read.

Jobs Board

Deals

Help make local life a little cheaper, next to the offers people use to eat out and shop close to home.

Your name at the top of the deals section and on the homepage deals module.

Classes

Put your name where families, adults and seniors find classes, camps and lessons from libraries, rec departments, schools and studios.

Your name on the classes index, every hub, and every town’s list.

Get Help

Put your name on the page people open when they need a food pantry, help with rent, a free clinic or a ride.

Your name on the Get Help index and its category pages, labeled as sponsored. Never on a crisis, shelter or domestic violence page.

Section sponsorship questions

What does the annual price cover?
A section sponsorship is $30,000 for a 12-month term, which is $2,500 a month. Your agreement names the section and every placement in it. The first year is due when you sign.
Can another business sponsor the same section?
No. One sponsor per section for the term, and we confirm it’s open before you sign. A section sponsorship is separate from the event, deal and job promotions any business can buy by the day.
Can I take a town or a category hub instead?
Town pages and the big category hubs can carry a presenting sponsor too. Tell us the place or the category and we’ll check what’s open.
Where does the Get Help credit appear?
On the Get Help index and its category pages, labeled as sponsored. Never on a crisis, shelter or domestic violence page.
How do we reserve a section?
Ask us. Once it’s confirmed open, we put it on a one-page insertion order. It goes live within two business days of the signed order, the first payment, and your logo.
What if I only want to promote my own event or job?
That’s a promotion, by the day, from your own account. A section sponsorship puts your name on the whole section for the year. See how promotions work
