ChannelPro Custom Webinars

Engage the ChannelPro audience with a live webinar featuring your presenter(s) and content. ChannelPro promotes the webinar to the ChannelPro audience. ChannelPro collects the registrants and produces the live webinar on the scheduled day. Someone from the ChannelPro webinar team will serve as the host who introduces the webinar and your presenter(s).

Once Webinar date is selected and theme is confirmed, we recommend a 4-6 week recruitment/promotion period. If necessary, ChannelPro will continue to collect leads via the on-demand recording after the live event, until the guaranteed leads are attained. Lead info includes name, title, company, phone, and email unless otherwise indicated.

ChannelPro IT Expert Guide Sponsorship

The ChannelPro team will help you choose a ChannelPro Expert Guide based on your preferred theme. Assets required from you:

  • Monochrome company logo at least 1200 pixels wide (for placement on the cover and back page of the guide)
  • Approximately 50 words of copy with call to action and URL (for placement on last page)

Native Content Lead-Gen Program with Survey

This dedicated email will be composed entirely of your message and sent to ChannelPro’s email audience. Assets needed:

  • Three survey questions
  • Survey prize image and name/description
  • URL of the post-survey landing page to which survey respondents will be directed after completing the survey, e.g. your website’s homepage. (Important note: We do not link to landing pages designed to collect lead data, because this will dilute our lead-generation efforts)
  • Banner ads: These banners are displayed on the survey page to emphasize your branding. The click URL is usually the same URL you provide for the post-survey landing page above. (banner sizes are 300×250, 300×600, and 728×90)

The standard lead time to prepare a custom survey for launch is ten business days
