Hi XXX,
I am Michael Stephen from StartupCity magazine, an enterprise business technology magazine with 27,000 qualified subscribers across APAC. I am delighted to let you know that our evaluation panel has shortlisted XXXXXX as one of the Top 10 CleanTech Startups in APAC 2020 for our upcoming annual issue of CleanTech set to come out in the month of September 2020.
While we honorably present XXXXXX as one of the top startups in front of our readers, we also want you to capitalize on this recognition. Hence, we are offering you a reprint package of USD 3000 that brings you a set of substantial promotional collateral. When you opt for the package, we will feature a single page profile on XXXXXX highlighting your areas of expertise and demonstrating why you excel in the CleanTech domain. You will have complete print and digital reprint rights for the profile allowing you to showcase it through all your channels and business promotions. The package would also entail the logo, a certificate of honor, and complimentary advertisement space. On your confirmation, we will draft the profile based on an interview with XXXXXX’s CEO/Senior Management. We will share the draft with you for your consent before the magazine gets published.
In the wake of events/conferences cancelled, reprints can be your effective networking tool. Especially post the current crisis, it would be imperative to stand out from your competitors to reach out to new investors or partners, and we are offering you a platform to do that.
This edition will also feature articles from influencers, Investors, and senior decision-makers from across industry verticals on topics like reducing energy consumption, curtail emission, and several other green technology solutions. We will share ideas from a wide range of industry leaders like accelerators, VC’s, Geothermal Power Engineers, Energy Engineering Analysts, Project Managers, R&D professionals, and many other technology buyers through contributory articles.
I would also like to add that though the issue is scheduled to release in September we will host your profile on our website as soon as we have your approval so that you can start using it in your digital campaigns. Please let me know if you could take out some time to discuss this further.
Warm Regards,
Michael
