Join Supply Chain Quarterly on the cutting edge
Sponsor the SCQ iPad/iPhone App
In just a few months, over 5,000 high-level logistics and supply chain executives have downloaded CSCMP's Supply Chain Quarterly's cutting-edge iPad/iPhone App. It's a first for a media brand in the logistics and supply chain sector—just what the market expects from The Quarterly.
With over 25 million sold as of mid-2011 (a number that's expected to more than double in the next 12 months), the iPad/iPhone has established itself as the platform of choice for mobile consumption of digital content.
Join SCQ on the ground floor of this exciting new technology by securing your sponsorship today.
The SCQ iPad/iPhone App gives subscribers access to the full issue of Supply Chain Quarterly in a format that is just like the print product but also includes features print can't match. Right from their device, readers can:
- View an entire issue in a traditional layout—exactly as it appears in print
- Search for stories using keywords or via direct links from the Table of Contents
- Bookmark, save, and forward their favorite, "must read" articles to friends and colleagues
- Follow "live" links within the text of each issue to navigate directly to external websites
- Flip through pages the same way they'd thumb through a print magazine
Your Sponsorship:
Act fast! Only two sponsorship positions are available. You get:- Your special banner—including a link to your website or any URL of your choice—across the page every time a reader launches the SCQ App
- Prominent visibility (including your company's logo) in ads promoting our new iPad/iPhone App in 12 monthly print issues of SCQ
- Price: $9,250 for a full year

- Supply a link to an externally hosted image that you place on your own website (or other external service), such as http://www.*my company website*.com/myiPadad.png)
- By choosing this option you will simply overwrite the linked file on your site with your new materials, and it will resolve to the App automatically.
- Important Note: Please be certain to follow the ad specification instructions above under "Ad Linking Instructions."
