The NBTA International Convention & Exposition is pleased to offer exhibitors a unique tool for expanding their public relations reach. With one posting to the NBTA Convention Press Room, your announcement will be sent to:

• All convention attendees
• NBTA members who are unable to attend convention
• Journalists registered for convention
• An additional targeted list of reporters who cover business travel

Announcements delivered using the NBTA Convention Online Press Room are:

• Posted in their entirety to Press Room on www.nbtaconvention.org on the date selected (there is no need to specify embargoes in release content; simply indicate the post date in the appropriate field)
• Archived on the Online Press Room until the next year's Press Room goes live
• Included as a link in the daily ″Live from the NBTA Convention″ email distributed to attendees and members of the media July 23, 24 and 25, 2007 (if dated before or after the convention, distributed as appropriate to NBTA members and/or media via other NBTA email communications)
• Featured in NBTA Convention Press Room RSS feeds

HOW IT WORKS

Exhibitors at the NBTA International Convention & Exposition complete the simple form below, providing company info, contact info, and the content of a press release, plus payment information. NBTA distributes the announcement as follows:

Website/RSS

• Prior to the NBTA Convention, the website and RSS feeds will be updated once daily with all relevant postings.
• During the NBTA Convention:

·         Info submitted by 3:00 pm ET will display onsite by 9:00 am the following day, and RSS Feeds will be updated

·         Info submitted by 9:00 am ET will display onsite by 3:00 pm the same day, and RSS Feeds will be updated

• Following the NBTA Convention, the website and RSS feeds will be updated as appropriate with relevant postings.

Email
On July 23, 24, and 25, NBTA will distribute the "Live from the NBTA Convention" email to all convention attendees, NBTA members who are unable to attend convention, journalists registered for convention, and an additional targeted list of reporters who cover business travel. We will make our best effort to include your announcement in the most appropriate communication with the best possible timing. Following these guidelines will help ensure you get into the email of your preference, though we cannot guarantee it:
 

• Submissions with a post date of July 20 or earlier, or July 26 or later, will be distributed as appropriate to NBTA members and/or media via NBTA email communications
