Annual Sponsorship

MMUA Annual Sponsorships have been a solid success, and we have improved the value for 2017. The price is increased $250—to $1,750—but this will save many sponsors money while increasing the benefits package for all.

Why the change? We are dropping the color charge for Annual Sponsor ads in The Resource newsletter. This will be a substantial benefit to Annual Sponsors already running color ads, and a low-cost improvement for current Annual Sponsors running black and white ads.

Sponsorship benefits now include:

• Recognition as an MMUA Annual Sponsor at www.mmua.org
• Recognition as an Annual Sponsor on banners at MMUA events
• Recognition as an Annual Sponsor in MMUA publications
• One 2-column by 5-inch Resource newsletter ad, in color. This includes a free, color, business-card sized ad in the Professional Services Directory (on pages 11-12 of the newsletter). Sponsors can also upgrade to a larger ad for an additional fee.
• One trade show table (including power) and two attendees at either the Summer Conference or Technical and Operations (T&O) Conference
• Two meeting registrations at either the Summer Conference or T&O Conference.

The total value of the Resource ad, trade show table and meeting registrations for 2017 is almost double the value of last year’s offering, and now stands at more than $3,500. So you can see that the $1,750 sponsorship package represents a solid value for the involved associate member.

We urge you to be seen on our website, at our meetings, and in our publications.

To sign-up as an MMUA Annual Sponsor, complete the Annual Sponsor form and return to MMUA.  For more information, particularly related to advertising, contact Steve Downer at sdowner@mmua.org or 763-746-0702. Questions in regards to meetings should be directed to Rita Kelly at rkelly@mmua.org or call 763-746-0707.

Thank you for your consideration and we hope to hear from you soon!

Summer Conference — Refreshment Break

Co-sponsor a refreshment break held during the Summer Conference. A sign with your company's logo will be placed at the food site and you will have a listing in the official conference program.

Summer Conference — Reception Hors d'oeuvres

Co-sponsor hors d'oeuvres at the Trade Show Reception held during the Summer Conference. A sign with your company's logo will be placed at the food site and you will have a listing in the official conference program.

Summer Conference — Golf Balls for Tournament

Print your company logo on golf balls and give them to attendees golfing in our tournament. You will be responsible to order your own golf balls and get them to the resort. MMUA does not charge you for this, but you need to register so we can include your company name on our sponsor list in the official conference program. Contact Rita Kelly for number of golfers we have registered.

Summer Conference — Golf Tournament Beverages

Consider having Madden's staff give each tournament participant a beverage as they leave the club house. Could be a bottle of water, a soda or a cold beer. Madden's can help you with ideas. Call Kari Arenkiel directly at 218.855.5970 to make arrangements. While MMUA does not charge you for this (you will pay Madden's directly), we would like you to register so we can include your company name on our sponsor list in the official conference program.
