This article is for selling sponsorships in association with a meeting that DO NOT include seats at the event.

Conferences and other multi-day events often have sponsors who cover some costs associated with the event. To sell the sponsorships during the meeting registration process, use the Store > Products section to setup the sponsorship pricing. Then, go to Meetings > Meeting Manager and add the sponsorships to a meeting.

Tip: These steps do not apply to sponsorships that include seats at the event. If the sponsorship should include one or more seats at the event, simply add it as a different ticket on the meeting rather than a product.
