Your Powerful Tool for Generating Quality Sales LeadsBudget constraints and increasingly hectic work schedules can often prohibit today’s health and safety decision makers from physically attending seminars, conferences and expositions. Instead, it is important that today’s health and safety product and service vendors seek innovative and cost-effective ways to dis-seminate information and engage prospects and clients in a timely manner to spotlight new technologies, product launches, strategic partnerships and more.

That’s why Occupational Health & Safety offers a turnkey webinar solution that allows health & safety products marketers to tap into our expertise and expansive market reach and drive valuable customer leads.

In addition to single-sponsored customer-supplied webinars, OH&S offers the opportunity for companies to co-sponsor time-sensitive editorial topical webinars. This variation of the popular webinar medium allows a company to sponsor for a fraction of the cost of a sole-sponsored webinar. Plus, the webinar is promoted in the very same fashion as a sole-sponsored webinar.

Editorial Webinar Co-Sponsorship $3,500 net

The unique presentation of a webinar forum allows clients to deliver information and engage participants in a timely, cost-effective manner. Whether at home or on the road, participants can view presentations through their web browsers while simultaneously listening to the audio. Discussions can take place in real time, and your audience of health and safety buyers are encouraged to ask presenters questions.

and through social media • E-blasts to Occupational Health & Safety magazine

WEBINARS

“I have done webinars for over 10 magazines and groups, and Occupational Health & Safety gets the best turnout by more than a 10 to 1 margin. My OH&S webinar leads are high quality, and the audience questions are on point and engaged. Thanks for all you guys do for safety.”

1105 Media Ad Serving Platform is Doubleclick DFP.

Acceptable Files - 80K maximum file size

GIF or JPG files (includes animated GIF files)

Flash files (no lower than Flash Player version 7 and no higher than version 10.1)

We advise advertisers and agencies to develop animated banners in HTML5 as upcoming versions of Chrome and Firefox will auto-pause Flash banners. Please note

that we can only serve HTML5 creative through third-party tags. HTML5 ad design and development guidance can be found here:

http://www.iab.net/media/file/HTML5_DAv1_0_Draft_05-06-13.pdf

When submitting flash files, please be sure to implement the Click Tag variable in place of the click URL (see directions below).

How to Embed Click Tags:

1. Open or create a new Flash document. Set the file to Actionscript 2.0. If you are using an existing Flash file, go to File > Publish Settings and make sure it’s set to

Actionscript 2.0.

2. Insert a new layer on the root timeline, at the top of all layers and name it button (or name of your choice). This MUST be the topmost layer in your file.

3. Draw a shape over the entire canvas, convert to a BUTTON symbol. Set the alpha transparency of the symbol to 0% so that the button is invisible. On the button

symbol timeline, make sure the frame is on the “Hit” keyframe ONLY.

4. Open the Actions panel (Window > Actions).

5. Select the button symbol on the canvas. You should see it selected in your timeline. In the Button Actions panel, paste the following code:

on (release) {

getURL(_level0.clickTAG, “_blank”);

}

6. NOTE: When inserting a value for the Instance name DO NOT use clickTag, clickTAG, or ClickTag. It is best to not use the term click tag, as it can conflict with the ad

system. This should also be taken into consideration when naming layers.

7. Save and publish your file to Flash 7 or above.

A standard GIF or JPG ad must be submitted with any rich media ad (for when a user does not accept to display rich media ads).

Third-party ad serving

We accept all third-party ad serving, but impressions are counted and invoices are issued based on our ad serving system, DoubleClick DFP. 15-20% impression

tracking discrepancy is expected. All formats will be considered and require extra processing time for testing and implementation. If possible, please submit a

test third-party ad. When submitting third-party tags, please send Javascript/Standard or Standard tags only. If using DFA, please send internal redirect tags. When

submitting third-party tags, please make sure they are https://
