We have two publications: the VOICE Experience Workbook and the VOICE Magazine/Program. Advertising in the VOICE Experience Workbook is limited to presenters only, except for the back cover (C4) and front cover premiere sponsor logo.

The following pertains only to the VOICE Program, in which advertising may be placed by any person or business in a voiceover related field. You do not need to be an attendee of the VOICE conference to be an advertiser or sponsor of a VOICE event.

Policies:

All advertising space, sponsorships, and bag insertion placements are sold on a non-exclusive basis. Premier and Banquet Sponsorships are limited to three and there will only be one Premier Sponsor in any given area of specialization. Exclusive sponsorships are available in most areas of specialization. Please call for details. An area of specialization is defined as a specific product type or service offered as a category for sponsorship. Exclusivity as a Premier Sponsor shall not limit competing businesses from participating at a lower level of sponsorship, or with any advertising, bag insertions, or other promotions that might be offered by VOICE.
