The 2017 TourismOhio Co-Op Advertising Program is available to all Ohio organizations that benefit from a healthy tourism economy. For every dollar you invest in the Co-Op, TourismOhio will match up to a recommended $25,000!
TourismOhio is investing up to $1.25 million as we partner together, collectively amplifying the voice of Ohio as we go to market. Investment in the Co-Op is incremental to the approximately $6 million that TourismOhio will invest in its year-long core advertising campaign consisting of tactics such as television, print, digital, search and social.
Starting September 23, we’ll present the 2017 Co-Op program and launch the online portal – the tool by which matching requests and advertising selections will be made.
2017 Co-Op Advertising Opportunities Include:
- Print: MidwestLiving, Family Fun, Madden Newspaper insert, Group Tour, Student Group Tour
- Brochure Distribution at TICs
- Digital
- NEW! Custom Landing Pages on MidwestLiving and BHG.com
- Pandora Radio
