Seeking Our Next Premier Sponsor — Help Keep WordPress for Toastmasters Free

The WordPress for Toastmasters project is all about free software and free services for Toastmasters clubs, but it’s still true that “there ain’t no free lunch” — we have web hosting bills to pay.

The WordPress for Toastmasters project is all about free software and free services for Toastmasters clubs, but it’s still true that “there ain’t no free lunch” — we have web hosting bills to pay.

Do you have a product or service or a message to promote? Or can you introduce us to someone who does? You can purchase a sidebar ad, as shown below, starting at $100 for one month.

The more exclusive Premier Sponsor level is $400. 

SpeakerPromos.com became our first “Premier Sponsor” in return to preferred ad placement on wp4toastmasters.com and the toastmost.org network of free club websites.  We only have one Premier Sponsor at a time, and the opportunity is open now. 

A Premier Sponsor gets:

Thank you to SpeakerPromos.com for agreeing to be our first “Premier Sponsor” in return to preferred ad placement on this website and the toastmost.org network of free club websites. We only have one Premier Sponsor at a time, and the next opportunity opens on Sept. 15. You can also purchase just a sidebar ad, starting at $100 for one month.

For $400, a Premier Sponsor gets:

  • Three months worth of advertising, including:
  • One month: Preferred placement in the sidebar ad slot that appears on each toastmost.org club website. There may be up to three sidebar ads in rotation, but yours will be shown first.
  • Two months more of sidebar ad placement (not guaranteed to be shown first)
  • One month of exclusive placement in the ad slot at the bottom of every page.
  • One month of exclusive placement on the member’s dashboard (shown on the main dashboard page, not necessarily every page).
  • One month of exclusive placement at the bottom of every email agenda sent out from toastmost.org.

You can see some of this in action on sites like the one for Online Presenters, but I’m including some screenshot examples to help you visualize the whole package.

You can sign up on the sponsorship page or contact me with questions at david@wp4toastmasters.com.

Finally, these charts from a presentation I did a few months ago try to show something about the growth of Toastmost.org in terms of clubs setting up websites (at least on a trial basis) and creating user accounts for their members.
