Become a SPIN SponsorYour marketing dollars are precious, so you need to reach the most qualified leads with the strongest buying power. Planners with less experience often don’t control buying decisions. Senior-level planners usually manage the larger budgets and are typically the hardest to reach. For a minimal investment, you can reach top planners in several different ways:

Unlike other networking meetings where all you get is a business card, a SPIN Think Tank allow you to put names with faces as you directly interact with planners through roundtable discussions. The SPIN Think Tanks attract 15-30 senior-level planners on average, so the setting is very intimate and you really get to know everyone in the room. The only way to attend a Think Tank as a supplier is to sponsor a Think Tank.
In keeping with our organization's vision, we limit the number of sponsors per event to 5. That's an industry-leading ratio, and our smaller events attract planners who often don't attend other industry events. Download the Sponsorship Prospectus for pricing. One of the ways SPIN communicates with members is through the SPIN’s Preferred Supplier Directory. The directory is listed for members and non-members on www.spinplanners.com, and sent monthly to all SPIN members. Suppliers nominated by a SPIN member for Preferred Supplier Status receive a complimentary text listing in the Directory. Expanded listings are available for a fee, as follows:

"Unlike other networking meetings where I come home with a handful of business cards and can't recall most of the people I met, the SPIN Think Tanks allow me to put names with faces in a much more memorable way. We've established a unique method of introductions that's far more interactive, and then we move into roundtable discussions with our peers in an intimate small group format. We rotate tables between topics so we have a chance to meet and get to know everyone in the room. As a senior-level planner, this is a far more refreshing way to network for me, and I come away with real connections - not just business cards."
