We're working on research for a

at BIO 2008 in San Diego about leading bioscience industry clusters
and investment trends which we expect to attract the attention of C-level
executives and other relevant attendees. Call for details if this may be relevant to
your marketing plans. |

Try the new
www.fdiatlas.com - only $4400 net per year to tap into the multi-million
dollar value of a targeted global marketing campaign, including frequent and
prominent ads in the Financial Times. The rate will go up to
$6300 net per year as the new ad campaign launches, so early commitments
will save money and get more visibility.
Sample list of 35 initial participants below. |
Explanation:
fDi Atlas is a new online
business location research tool with sponsored executive summary
presentations on topics of common interest at the early planning stages of
business site selection. The content can be updated
directly at any time by sponsors through a simple login process to keep it timely, and the presentations
can
link to websites and contacts for more details. |
| Financial
Times readers have recently seen many prominent quarter-page color ads for fDi
Atlas. It has also been advertised on a full page
worldwide, and on the FT front page, and in each recent issue of fDi. This
full page ad in the Financial Times on May 4 featured the winners of the
North American Cities of the Future
competition. Nominations for the 2009 awards will open in summer 2008.
The fDi Atlas ad campaign is estimated at $4 million in value
per year. It expands fDi's
very targeted US and global reach as a trusted Financial Times group (FT
Business) specialty magazine.
This reflects the commitment of the Financial Times
group to fDi as the global leader in this niche market - in print and online.
This US and global marketing campaign
by fDi leverages the limited marketing resources of many advertisers.
It dwarfs the US and global reach of other publishers in
this niche market. No other publisher offers the FT's US and global reach
among top executives. This is just one element of fDi's 2007-2008
marketing plan.
Much of fDi's readership has been
"cherry-picked" from FT readers according to our market research about
business investment trends and the specific companies which have been
planning major investment projects. fDi is a trusted FT resource for
these readers.
The Financial Times has nearly 500,000 subscribers.
FT.com attracts
over 3.7 million unique users as the world's leading audited business news
website. FT-sponsored events also consistently attract C-level
executives and their trusted professional advisors.
fDi's unique US and global C-level market reach as an FT
publication is already unmatched. We can leverage
marketing investments very cost-effectively as illustrated through
various budget examples below.
We can also work with fDi advertisers who want to develop
integrated marketing plans - such as to reach the FT's large US or global circulation to complement
fdi
campaigns, or to include FT.com or fDi-sponsored events in their online or
event marketing plans. |
The content
below summarizes
the many marketing options available to potential fDi advertisers, but please just
contact us for a proposal tailored to your own marketing objectives,
budget, and plans, including special events. fDi reaches a
very targeted audience of C-level readers such
as FT subscribers who are responsible for North American and global business
location strategies, capital investment project plans, and organizational
change decisions at large and growing companies.
Roughly
85% of fDi's
readers are top executives at large companies (>500 employees). Others
are at very targeted, fast-growing firms.
The audited circulation of 15,500 (plus pass-along readers)
is 40% in North America, 35% Europe, and 25% Asia-Pacific and other regions.
These are top decision-makers with the resources to do
major projects, and fDi attracts their strategic interest in the
globalization of business.
Approximately 80% of fDi's readers are CEO's or CFO's, and a
further 15% are responsible for corporate development or strategic planning.
This is more targeted than prominent business news magazines.
That enables
us to offer very
attractive advertising options which are very competitive even with small
ads in small advertorial publications.
Other magazines may publish many more ads each month and
distribute many thousands of copies to mid-level managers at small US
companies, but fDi content
reaches and interests C-level FT readers at top companies in the USA and
worldwide as a trusted source of independent market research.
fDi is not cluttered with lots of ads. It is a trusted
FT channel for attracting C-level attention worldwide to some of the top
location brand advertising campaigns in this market.
The ads in fDi stand out to make them more effective -
because they are not surrounded by lots of other ads or advertorials.
Instead, they are surrounded by unique FT-quality research on many topics of
interest to top executives, and the reach and reputation of the Financial
Times group helps to attract relevant online visitors to the fDi magazine
and fDi Atlas websites. |
There are 3
basic ways to take advantage of fDi's growing online reach among
executives who are planning capital investment projects.
- Presentations through the
fDi Atlas online for $4400
net/year
- Edit and link your own content on the fDi website
- Contribute 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 or 8 page "Spotlight" articles to be
published online as though they appeared in fDi magazine for $2600 to
$8500 net per year. This is a dramatic savings over printed
"advertorials", and can attract the attention of relevant online visitors
all year.
- Skyscraper, banner, mid-article (MPU) or button ads
can be placed on the fDi website at
very competitive CPM rates or as fixed placements on the most relevant pages
for targeting of fDi visitors.

Budget examples below show combinations for
integrated marketing plans, which can combine location brand campaigns with
other FT group services. A cash discount is
available for campaigns which are paid when they are booked, such as within
30 days of the insertion order, rather than invoiced and paid separately
over the year as ad inserts are published. |
Print advertising in fDi
magazine is generally for full page ads or double page spreads as in major brand
campaigns, although horizontal half page ads are also accepted. The
are no 1/3, 1/4, or smaller ads in fDi. Each advertising page is
typically surrounded by 2 or 3 pages of well-researched editorial content of
the high quality standard which readers expect of Financial Times
publications. The lack of many small ads makes full page ads stand out
in the midst of interesting content.
The editorial calendar
and gross rates are summarized in our planning
summary for US advertisers, where the latest
fDi media kit is available. The
booking and material deadlines and print dates for
fDi are below.
"Net" rates for direct placements by advertisers in
fDi (not involving a 15% ad agency commission) are summarized below for
convenience.
Net rates serve advertisers who may choose to pay their ad
agency or graphic designer separately for creative design and related
services, while handling their own media plan and placement orders directly.
Gross rates as in the
2008 fDi
media kit apply to bookings planned and placed through an ad agency,
with a 15% commission payable to the agency.
Contact us to discuss print ad campaigns or custom proposals, or
unique options such as integrated location brand marketing campaigns beyond
fDi and the fDi website, such as event co-sponsorships, custom research
reports, or collaboration with other FT group marketing channels such as the
Financial Times newspaper, FT.com, and FT event
sponsorships or fDi media co-sponsorships at events. |

The lead sponsor,
such as a state or major city or region, will generally commit to taking
only 1 or 2 of the total ad pages directly, or perhaps more as contributed
articles by the sponsor or trusted professional advisors, to complement the
fDi editorial research and content. The lead sponsor, however, helps
fDi to attract the total number of ads as shown to qualify for these special
discounts from normal fDi rates.
The ad page rates
apply to articles contributed by advertisers.
Reports are bound
into the selected fDi issue (maximum 32 pages).
Supplements are
polybagged with the selected fDi issue.
Both are featured
online, with .pdf copies and reprints available.
Travel expenses to
do this research work with the lead sponsor are either reimbursed at cost or
agreed and paid in advance as part of the total budget as part of the lead
sponsorship commitment to this work.
Extra research
time at the request of sponsors in the area, beyond the normal time which is
scheduled for fDi writers to develop the amount of FT-quality research
content necessary to produce valuable reports, is billed at a per diem rate
or as may be agreed in advance of such work.
Other options are
available - such as marketing opportunities to take greater advantage of
this research work in collaboration with FT group colleagues at the
Financial Times, FT.com, and sponsored FT events. |

Another online
option is the fDi Atlas. This

location which can be edited directly by the economic development
representatives of the area and link out to relevant content such as details
available on their websites.
|
fDi Atlas online presentation |
$4,400 net per year - will go up to
$6300 in 2008 |
The "Spotlight"
presentations are designed to attract attention as print layouts, as they
would appear in fDi magazine, even if they are just published online at a
much lower cost so that it becomes easy for fDi visitors and search engines
to find this content when relevant, whether or not the article was also
printed in a recent issue of fDi magazine.
By contrast, the
fDi Atlas is designed as a website presentation, structured in a
globally consistent way so that C-level readers of fDi and fDi website
visitors can find comparable information about locations of interest in a
fast and intuitive way, even though the specific presentation content may
vary according to what is contributed by the participants.
In this manner,
Spotlight articles and fDi Atlas presentations combine as distinct and
complementary new ways to attract the interest of the executives and
advisors who we attract to the fDi website, whether as fDi readers or
through our other marketing initiatives such as the recent
fDi Atlas advertising campaign in the
Financial Times newspaper. |

Illustrative examples of fDi online ad campaigns |
Examples of integrated fDi
online and print ad campaigns |
$5,000 annual budget - online content and advertising
focus
| $2,600 for a 1 page contributed "Spotlight"
article, online-only, roughly 500 words plus image, available as a .pdf
download, and designed to be easy for search engines or visitors to find |
| $2,250 for fixed-placement
button ads on a few very relevant pages, or 25,000+ impressions

| $4,900 for a 2 page contributed "Spotlight"
article, online-only |
| $5,000 for rotating banner ads - 50,000
impressions per year $100 CPM |
Articles such as Spotlights make it easy for fDi website
visitors and search engine users to find out more about an area or service
at the time when it may be most relevant to active project research
interests. Banners can also be fixed placements on the most relevant
pages. |

sectors, such as to reinforce event marketing work or feature recent success
stories online. An example would be a 2 page Spotlight article for
$14,600 in print and online, so that a .pdf version of the presentation is
available for marketing purposes.
They are also an economical way for professional service providers to share
thought-leadership presentations such as "white papers" or articles which
demonstrate the scope and value of their capabilities. High quality
contributed articles by professionals could substitute for an ad campaign. |
