There will still be only ONE Sponsorship spot per month, and a business may only purchase one spot per calendar year (unless someone cancels and a request is sent out for a replacement).
Sponsorship Fee = $20 + Samples (see below)
Sponsors will:
- Have a 468px by 60px (min size) banner ad on our Home page
- Have an interview and up to 5 product photos on our Meet Our Sponsor page (sponsor interview pages will no longer be removed at the end of each month, but will be moved to our new Past Sponsors section)
- Provide at least 50 samples for the month they are sponsoring and will receive a Free Gift Bag for that month (those sending in at least 100 samples for their month will receive a Free Box for that month)
- Receive top billing on our Who's in the Box page for the month they sponsor
- Be identified as the Sponsor throughout our website, on our Facebook page & Twitter account, and in our monthly newsletter
- Receive a banner ad/button identifying them as a TLBB Sponsor that they can add to their blog, website, etc
- Be identified as the Sponsor on a card in each Box (card will include business name, selling site/s, blog, facebook, twitter, etc) and with labels/tags we'll place on each sample
Interview questions will be sent when payment has cleared. Completed interviews, product photos, and banner ads must be received no later than the 25th of the month prior to the month being sponsored. All Sponsor info (banner ad, interview, etc) will go "live" on the 1st of the month, and will remain through the end of that month.
If there is an emergency that prevents a Sponsor from following through on their commitment, they must contact us immediately -- in these cases, the $20 fee will be refunded. However, if a Sponsor simply doesn't send in their samples or other required information or if they cancel at the last minute in non-emergency situations, then they will be replaced as Sponsor for that month and their fee will not be refunded.
Questions should be directed to Milly@thelittleblackboxes.com prior to purchasing a Sponsorship spot.
We reserve the right to refuse a Sponsorship spot (and refund the purchase price) to any business we have concerns about advertising.
Purchasing a Sponsorship spot is a binding contract and indicates that you have read and agree to all of the above.
