Would you like your firm’s logo proudly displayed on the FPL website?
The race to win a sponsorship spot on the FIX Protocol Limited (FPL) website in 2010 is underway! The opportunity to bid for a spot is exclusively available to FPL member firms and with only 3 spaces available per quarter, act now and place a bid for a chance to have your firm’s hyperlinked logo displayed on the FPL website, which is visited by thousands of electronic trading professionals every day.
Following the success of the site sponsorship initiative in recent years, FPL is offering member firms the opportunity to bid for each of the four quarters upfront and more effectively incorporate website sponsorship into overall marketing plans for the coming year. Until Wednesday, December 16th 2009 all FPL member firms will be able to submit a bid to proudly display their company’s logo on the FPL website. The winning site sponsor logos will appear to all website visitors, prominently placed within the left hand menu under the “About the Organisation” section.
To view one of the many pages on which these logos will be displayed please visit www.fixprotocol.org. Pages displaying the site sponsor banners will include the FPL home page, the technical specifications page, discussion forums, the FIX products and vendors page and the FPL events page, plus many more.
To win one of the limited slots available simply email the FPL Program Office at FPL@FIXProtocol.org by Wednesday, December 16th 2009, advising which of the four quarters in 2010 you would like to place a bid for and the amount you would like to bid. Firms are free to bid for a sponsorship spot for any or all of the four quarters of 2010. The 3 highest bids received for each quarter will win, with the highest bid taking the top spot with maximum exposure. There are no minimum or maximum bid prices; it's your opportunity, so you suggest the price!
The winners for each quarter will have their logos displayed for the following time periods:
Quarter 1: Monday, January 4th - Friday, April 2nd 2010
Quarter 2: Monday, April 5th - Friday, July 2nd 2010
