FAQs
What is Planet Vending?
We are Vending’s Best Read on line vending publication. We write original articles, and publish appropriate press releases whilst keeping an eye on writing standards. We launched in October 2012 and our growth has been organic within vending and our 2000 plus email subscribers receive an email update every Friday.
Who reads Planet Vending?
Pretty much everyone in vending, from operators, to brand managers, to manufacturers, to asset finance businesses, engineers, FM managers, and a whole raft of key influencers in and outside the industry! A recent increase in readership profile has come from within the OCS and HORECA sectors.
Why should I consider advertising or taking you up on your opportunities?
Well, if you are looking to spend your marketing budget on a publication that’s reaching hundreds of thousands of viewers and unique visitors – then, frankly, you shouldn’t. However if you want to reach the key influencers in the vending and OCS market – then it’s a bit of a no-brainer. Our email update has a 28% open rate every week. Every single article we publish is distributed across our extensive social media platforms including Linked In and appropriate Linked In Groups. We are flexible with budgets and will be until you are convinced that PV will work for you.
How much does it cost to advertise?
The glib answer is ‘how much have you got in your budget?’ We do have a tariff as below but if you are looking at a campaign that mixes banner adverts with editorial, blogs or sponsorship over a period of time – and have a budget – then talk to us. We know that marketing budgets are stretched tight and we want you to be delighted. The following costs are based on a ‘once only’ or ‘one only’ basis. We apply discounts for multiple coverage.
