The idea is to make sponsorship financially accessible to both small and large companies. Our division is: Local -- if your business is mostly in one state this one fits you. Regional -- if your business is mostly in, say, the southeastern United States, or east of the Mississippi River, this one fits you. Domestic -- if you do business all over the US and into Canada, but you're not that big yet, this is your fit. Global -- this is where the largest companies fit...you know who you are. Pricing ranges from $500/year for a silver-local to $5,000 for a platinum-global sponsor. If you'd like to become a sponsor for the group, please,  email us  and let's discuss the possibilities. Or you can phone or snail-mail us,   click here for more information. -- Back To Top of This Page -- ITSBITS® is registered in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office as the property of IHS, Incorporated.
