Let us help promote you online!

Media Promotions and Contests / Online Lead Generation – With the donation of a product or service you can potentially take advantage of thousands of free dollars in TV, radio and newspaper advertising space.  Host the contest on our website and we will promote it in email campaigns, social media, and in show materials – A great opportunity to collect relevant data and email subscribers.

Email Campaigns – Place an advertisement in one of the pre-show email campaigns. Reach our database of home and garden enthusiasts and capture the number of click-throughs to your website.

Web Banners – With Marketplace Events produced home show websites receiving between 25k and 200k unique visitors per year depending on the market, it only makes sense to advertise on our websites. Not only are the number of visits increasing year over year, visitors searching the website are within the specific “home and garden” demographic.

Social Media – Sponsor a blog post on ​the show website. It is a great way to get word out about your products and services.

Public Relations – If you have a new product or an interesting story to tell we can help get your message out to the media.  Just submit a “New Product” request form – reach out to your sales consultant to access the form.
