New York State Circulation Management Association, Inc.

6th Annual Sales and Marketing Joint Conference

1 2 3 4 5 6 President Mary Sawyer

On behalf of the NYSCMA, Inc. Officers and Directors, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to our 6th Annual Sales & Marketing Conference. I would also like to note that this Conference marks the 97th year that State Circulation Executives have gathered. We are excited to be gathering in Albany this year for “The Challenges and Opportunities of Change”. Once again, the blended NYSCMA, Inc. and NYNAME Conference Committee have put together a very strong and innovative agenda. We’ll be starting off the program Sunday evening with our President’s reception at the Albany Times Union where we’ll be greeted and given a tour of their new press by Publisher, George Hurst III. We move into a full schedule on Monday with our Host Newspaper Panel. Building a Database you can use, The New York Times Digital Sub- scription Model and many Breakout sessions round out the day. We finish Monday with our Awards Banquet and Presentations in the Phoenix Ballroom. Tuesday we have a half day, starting out with The Challenges and Opportunities of Change presented by both and Syracuse Media Group, Syracuse.com/The Post Standard and Advance Central Services. Digital First Media pre- sented by the Journal Register Company is next followed by the final presentation by the New York Lottery entitled “2nd chance to win”. We’re glad that you could join us. This conference promises to send you away with at least one idea that you can take back to your newspaper and turn it into additional sales and reve- nue. Many have worked tirelessly to ensure just that. I would like to extend a personal thanks to Diane Lahr-Smith, President of NYNAME, as well as the remaining board members of this fantas- tic organization, Nancy Breault, Steve Piersa and the Directors of NYSCMA, Inc. I also want to extend a special thanks to Don Ferlazzo of the New York News Publishers Association. His tire- less efforts to assist both organizations in putting this conference together must be recognized. Thanks to you all! I would also be remiss if I did not extend a special Thank You to our Associate Members and Sponsors. Their support is always appreciated. Please take the time to visit them in their booths. And finally, a Thank You to Michelle Giorgianni for putting this Buyer’s Guide together this year. It will be a valuable resource you’ll be sure to keep on your desk and use throughout the year. Enjoy the Conference!

Mary Sawyer President, NYSCMA, Inc.
