Your Audience

Wherever someone wants to educate, engage, entice, and entertain others, TEA members are design­ing, specifying and creating. The Themed Entertainment Association is a nonprofit alliance of over 7,000 creative individuals working in over 680 firms, 36 countries, to provide services and products ranging from feasibility studies to concept design, master planning to schematic art, exhibit and scenic fabrication to facility construction and more. TEA operates to facilitate the client-vendor interface, help­ing to connect, engage, and build relationships that are responsible for many of the world’s most excit­ing projects!

Your Opportunity

Sustaining Members enjoy the ability to participate in the many TEA marketing opportunities and events at a discounted rate. The flexibility of the program allows members to adjust the program to meet their specific objectives. Plus, the plan can be mapped out ahead of time for the entire year, saving companies the continuous headache of having to think about marketing strategies.

Sustaining members can leverage the program to:

• Target vendors and/or clients through advertisements (email, print, and tradeshows)
• Participate in high visibility event sponsorships (including the Thea Awards Gala, Summit, SATE Orlando/Europe, mixers, and more!)
• Use event tickets to participate in networking opportunities
• Create industry awareness of skills, services, and achievements
• Position a new product

The result? A targeted, powerful increase in industry awareness of your brand.

Your Money

As a member of the program, all ads, event tickets, and sponsorships that the TEA has to offer are automatically discounted at a significant rate. The annual cost of what you put into the program is translated into a much higher amount of “TEA Bucks” which can be spent on just about anything the TEA has to offer: sponsorships, gala tickets, ads, etc. The “value added” increases based on the level of participation, as detailed below.
