STPL Sponsorship Program
Our Sponsorship Program
Our Sponsorship Program offers an outstanding opportunity for businesses to gain prominent exposure across the Mornington Peninsula at a fraction of the cost compared to our standard advertising rates. We limit this special offer to just six sponsors over a 12-month period to maintain exclusivity.
Sponsors benefit from prime placement on the back page of the Somerville Times and a medium-sized advertisement in the Peninsula Local. Additionally, they receive continual visibility across our digital platforms. This arrangement not only supports our mission of delivering regular, high-quality content but also ensures consistent placement for our sponsors in our publications. We actively engage with our sponsors for referrals, joint projects, and other collaborative ventures, further enhancing their value and our community connection.
We seek partners who actively contribute to the community, support local journalism, and provide engaging content that we can feature throughout the year.
