Directory Advertising Opportunity
 
When you support the PA East Chapter of ASID, you gain more than exposure - you are connecting on a personal level with the design community in Philadelphia and the vastly dense surrounding area.  This year is especially important, in that it is the 40th Anniversary of ASID. To commemorate this impressive milestone, the PA East Chapter is producing a printed and digital format member directory for 2015-2016 to be distributed to all members.

The directory will tie into our 40th Anniversary Celebration, taking place this September.  We have developed several advertising options to accommodate all levels of our member base and design community:

  

Tabbed divider pages (limited availability) - $1500 Level

 

Full page ad - $1000 Level

 

Half page ad - $500 Level

 

Quarter page ad - $250 Level

 

Business card ad - $100 Level

See the full information here for benefits of each level and contact Katie Rafter at administrator@pae.asid.org to secure your spot today.  

 

Deadline for all submissions is July 10th
