Become a Sponsor

Local journalism is now more important than ever and unfortunately more difficult to maintain with the decline of print news. In order to keep the local community informed on important issues in the area, the Lea County Tribune was founded to provide quality and original reporting, easily accessible for free online.

You can support our mission of providing strong local journalism to Lea County through an annual sponsorship. The standard price is $350 per month, but you can save 10% with an annual sponsorship and receive other great perks.

Sponsorship not only helps support local journalism but comes with these great benefits as well:

Logo in Sponsorship Carousel

At the bottom of each page on the Lea County Tribune website, we will showcase a few sponsor logos. These will be randomly rotated in order to show each sponsor equally. The logos will link to the featured article about the sponsor on our site which will provide additional information to readers about your business.

Up to 800 Banner Ad Impressions for Free

While you can purchase advertising directly, up to 10,000 impressions are included along with an annual sponsorship. This will put your business in front of thousands of local people who read our articles every day. You can provide your own ad designs or we can create something simple for you to use.

Advert in Email Newsletter

While most of our readership comes from people visiting the website directly or through social media, the Lea County Tribune does send out an occasional email newsletter to update subscribers on top stories. Each newsletter will include some sponsor adverts. Sponsors will appear in one email newsletter each month.

Additional Perks for Annual Sponsorship

Purchasing an annual sponsorship not only gives you a 10% discount on the total 12-month price, but comes with these additional perks:

Two Free Tickets to Our Annual Gala

Each year, the Lea County Tribune will be hosting an upscale gala to bring attention to local journalism and community involvement. This event will feature dinner, musical entertainment and a keynote speaker. Ticket prices are $125 per person, but sponsors will receive two tickets included with their annual sponsorship.

Sponsored Article Featured on the Lea County Tribune Website

We’ll do a write-up about you and your business to include on the website. This will be great visibility and help people looking for your products and services find you online. This featured article can include links to your social media profiles and website. Each sponsored article will be linked to on our carousel of sponsor logos appearing in the footer of every page.
