sponsor booths; scrolling right or left reveals Silver, then Bronze sponsor booths.

• Style templates are used to differentiate booths by appearance. Platinum and Gold sponsors choose from the largest selection of templates. Custom booths can be designed for an additional fee.

• Booth content may include audio and video files, white papers, presentations, or other resources. Some sponsors use web links to resources on their company’s servers or to useful external sites. All ShareComp content, included that from booths, is indexed and can be found in the Resource Center or via a topic or title search. Content attracts booth visitors.•Surveys can be conducted in the booth

as a means of gathering more information about or opinions from booth visitors. They are often used in conjunction with giveaways or invitation-only events.

• Public and private chats are the two primary methods of communicating throughout the conference, including your booth. Transcriptions of public booth chats are available On-Demand. Conversations between representatives and booth visitors often begin with text chat and continue on the telephone.

• Virtual booth training is offered to all sponsors for booth representatives. Tips on staffing the booth and maximizing opportunities will be discussed.

General Admission and Sponsor’s Exemption

The registration fee for non-sponsor participants is $595 per person. Most participants will attend for free with a Sponsor Pass, which is available from Platinum, Gold, and Silver sponsors.

Direct-to-Booth (D2B) Admission

Guests of Platinum and Gold Sponsors automatically enter ShareComp through their sponsor’s booth. These guests typically stay longer, interact more, and download more information in their sponsor’s booth than in other booths.

Pre-Registration Head Start

Participants typically accept and use the first sponsor pass offered. Platinum sponsors may issue Sponsor Passes 28 days prior to the opening of general registration. Gold sponsors will have a 21-day head start and Silver sponsors 14-day head start. Use of Sponsor Passes are tracked and included in the conference reports package for Platinum, Gold and Silver Sponsors.

Registrant Data and Activity Reports

Sponsors can access lead reports of all booth visitors, sponsored activity participants, sponsored content viewers, and sponsor pass users with contact information and detailed qualifying information. Reports will be available for the ShareComp live event and anytime during On-Demand.

What Does Sponsorship Get You?

Scheduled Events

Sponsors receive an attendance report for their scheduled activities. Presentations are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis by sponsorship level.

• Keynote addresses have the highest visibility of the presentations. Platinum sponsors have the right to provide a keynote address; topic and speaker must be approved by VCP. Each Keynote address may be audio or video with the option of a live question and answer period.

• Webcast presentations are a 30 minute live or pre-recorded, video or slides-with-audio webcast held in the ShareComp Presentation Hall.

• Scheduled chats are open-dialogue text chats on pre-determined topics introduced by moderators. Topics include best practices and detailed analyses of issues covered in webcasts. Scheduled Chats are open for 60 minutes per topic.

• Prize drawings are announced show-wide, and may be used to drive booth traffic. They appear on the ShareComp agenda and in reader board reminders. ShareComp uses an innovative points-based system to drive participant interaction with sponsors and presentations.

Additional Visibility• Video acknowledgement in conference welcome message.

Platinum and Gold Sponsors are thanked for their support in the ShareComp lobby greeting.

• Static logo on printed promotional and registration materials: active link on e-materials, Platinum, Gold and Silver Sponsors will have logo placement on the ShareComp web site.

• Booth content listed in ShareComp 2012 Index. Booth content is also available through a topic search or in the Resource Center, so the number of items in the booth equals presence outside the booth.

• Pre-loaded items in participant briefcase. As with a physical conference, participants may collect items from sponsor booths. This feature allows Platinum and Gold Sponsors to pre-load an item each participant’s briefcase. All items in the participants’ briefcase will be downloaded to their computer at the touch of a button.

• ShareComp is promoted heavily on social and business networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
