Now there are two ways that you can you can increase your presence at "The Largest Gathering of RV’s on Earth". If your exhibiting at the 2009 show and want more exposure or if you cannot attend in 2009 but would like to participate in this once-a-year RV phenomenon, read on.
If the RV market is your target, we’ve got the vehicle to get your message in front of tens of thousands of RV owners. Our 2009 Official Show Program will be distributed inside "Goody Bags" at all four entrances during the nine day event and we estimate that over 95% of the attendees own an RV. This gets your message into the hands of the people you’re looking for and we have found that because of the color aerial photo that we feature on the cover each year, the RVers keep this program in their rig as a souvenir to show to friends and other RVers that have not had the "Quartzsite Experience" yet. You will find our rates sheet below and I think you’ll agree that, at these prices and with this concentration of RVers, you’ll get the "bang for the buck" you’re looking for!
If you want to "kick it up another notch", you may want to participate in our 2009 Sponsorship Program. There are three levels of participation available. All three levels of participation give you a chance to include 40,000 pieces of literature in the "Goody Bags" that will be distributed at the gates plus signage throughout the show grounds, prominent web site presence and a link to your web site at www.quartzsitervshow.com, (we averaged 24,000 hits a month last year from Nov. – Jan.) free ad space in the show program plus a copy of the consumer list that we will generate through a drawing during the show.
There are additional benefits for the Platinum and Gold Level sponsors. You will find a complete break down of the sponsorship program by clicking this link. 2009 Sponsorship Program
All indications are that 2009 should be a HUGE show and we hope you will take this opportunity to stand out from the pack by participating in one of our promotional opportunities. Give me a call at 800-969-5464 X121 if you have any questions or would like to participate.
Very truly yours, Kenny King
