Serving meeting professionals in the state of Ohio

Chapter Advertising Opportunities

More planners and suppliers receive and view information online. As a result, we have combined our advertising opportunities to include banner ads on the new Ohio Chapter MPI website: www.mpioh.org. Every online meeting announcement will have a link directing the recipient to our website. This means that currently over 700 people in our database will be asked to view our new Homepage Sponsor at least once per month.
