Retargeting Campaign

Retargeting campaigns allow you to deliver your banner or video ads to NAR’s website visitors after they have left the website, as they are surfing their favorite news, entertainment, lifestyle, and business sites. When your banners or videos are placed in our retargeting program, your ads “follow” our visitors while they perform Google searches and visit other partner websites within Google’s expansive Search and Display Networks.

Provide your campaign budget and your ads will run until contracted impressions are met on NAR’s websites. Submitting all materials as recommended will provide the highest placement rate and allow the system to best optimize your ad campaign for performance. Keep the message simple and the text as large and easy-to-read as possible.

Helpful Hints For Positive Metrics

  • Don’t use a single image in your Targeted Eblast
  • Suggest sending to a targeted list vs. a randomly selected distribution list
  • Make sure the “Subject Line” is positive and consider promotion of an “offer” in the “Subject Line”

Good Neighbor Awards

The NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® Good Neighbor Awards recognize REALTORS® who make extraordinary contributions to their communities though volunteer work. Celebrating its 22nd year, the Good Neighbor Awards has become one of the most beloved awards bestowed upon NAR members, and has donated nearly $1.4 million in grants to REALTOR®-led charitable organizations that help people in 40 states and 15 countries. Good Neighbor Award sponsors benefit from months of editorial and advertising exposure—from the call for entries to the culmination during NAR NXT in November. The Conference highlights include the awards presentation and video for an audience of 6,000 at the General Session, a gala dinner celebration, and a booth on the Expo Floor.

State and Local Sponsorships

Become a sponsor for a local or state Good Neighbor Award to promote the “good” that REALTORS® are doing in their neighborhoods and one that mirrors the national Good Neighbor Award Program that NAR promotes each year to 10 winners of this prestigious award – now in its 22nd year.

Background

NAR research shows that REALTORS® volunteer in their communities at more than double the rate of the general population. That should be celebrated and promoted!

To increase the number of REALTORS® who are recognized for their volunteer work, NAR encourages state and local real estate associations to launch their own Good Neighbor Award. NAR offers a toolkit and tips to make that process easy.

For the last three years, NAR has offered funding to encourage state and local associations to launch their own Good Neighbor Award. This generated a lot of momentum and new programs.

The benefit of these local and state programs from NAR’s standpoint is that each time a Good Neighbor Award program recognizes another REALTOR® it generates positive local and national media coverage about REALTORS® doing good and reinforces the message that REALTORS® do much more than sell houses–they improve communities.

2023 Sponsor Benefits

Take advantage of this unique opportunity to be part of a growing initiative at NAR to communicate how much good REALTORS® do in their communities. Become a sponsor today and receive the following promotional opportunities!

  • Name and logo on the web page
  • Name in all editorial mentions about the program
  • Name in social media posts promoting the program
  • Name at all awards ceremonies for the local and state winners

Contact your NAR Account Executive for sponsorship information at nar@theygsgroup.com.

Mar 27, 2023

The term REALTOR® is a membership mark of the association and it means “member of the National Association of REALTORS®  and we restrict its usage. 

RATE POLICY

  • Rates are based on frequency within a 12-month period from the first insertion.
  • Advertisers earning higher rates than established in their initial contract will be credited. A short-rate invoice will be issued when it is apparent that the contract upon which billing has been based cannot be completed in a 12-month period.
  • The publisher may change the rates published in this document at any time. However, this increase will not apply to advertisements with closing dates that precede the announcement of increased rates.

CANCELLATIONS

No cancellations or changes in orders will be considered unless submitted to the publisher in writing prior to the closing date. Cancellations or changes received after closing are subject to penalty. Orders for cover advertising are accepted on a noncancelable basis only.

CORRECT USE OF REALTOR®

REALTOR®, REALTORS®, and REALTOR-ASSOCIATE® are collective membership marks that serve to identify members of the National Association of REALTORS® and distinguish them from nonmembers. 

Members are licensed by the National Association of REALTORS® to use one or more of the marks in reference to themselves and their real estate business. The term REALTOR® denotes membership, not the jobs performed by members, and should only be used in contexts that relate to membership. 

REALTOR® should not be used interchangeably with the titles “real estate broker” or “agent” or a person who provides those services. 

The term REALTOR® is always capitalized, followed by a registration mark (®). The words REALTOR® or National Association of REALTORS® should not be hyphenated. 

It is incorrect to use descriptive words or phrases to modify the marks (i.e., Top REALTOR® or Successful REALTOR®). 

The first time the official name “National Association of REALTORS®” is referred to, it must be stated in its entirety. Thereafter, the abbreviation NAR may be used. 

All advertising materials must conform to this policy. The advertiser will be charged for any corrections made.

CONTRACT AND COPY REGULATIONS

  • The publisher reserves the right to reject or to cancel any advertisement at any time.
  • Advertisers and advertising agencies shall assume liability for all content (including text, representation, and illustration) of advertisements printed, and shall also assume responsibility for any claims arising therefrom made against the publisher.
  • The publisher will not be liable for any failure to print, publish, or circulate all or any portion of any issue in which an advertisement accepted by the publisher is contained if such failure is due to acts of God, acts of government or government instrumentality (whether federal, state, or local), strikes, accidents, work stoppages, fire, or any other circumstances beyond the control of the publisher.
  • The word “advertisement,” in not less than 7-point type, must be carried at the top of all advertisements that carry no signature or simulate editorial material. The advertiser will be charged for alterations and corrections.
  • All advertising contract position clauses are treated as requests. Since editorial requirements change as issue production progresses, the publisher cannot guarantee fixed positioning.
  • Advertising materials will be stored by the publisher for 12 months and then destroyed, unless otherwise requested.
  • The publisher will not be bound by any conditions, printed or otherwise, appearing on order blanks or copy instructions when such conditions conflict with the regulations set forth in this rate card.
  • Repeat ads (pick-up ads): the most recent advertisement will be picked up unless otherwise indicated on insertion order.

PAYMENT POLICY

Display Advertising
Payment is due within 30 days of date of invoice. No cash discount is given. Publisher shall have the right to require payment for advertising upon such terms as publisher sees fit, prior to publication of any ordered advertisement. In the event of nonpayment, publisher reserves the right to hold advertiser and/or its advertising agency jointly and severally liable for such monies as are due and payable to the publisher.

Classified Advertising
Prepayment is required on all advertising, which must be received for each ad by the issue closing date. Payment may be by check payable to the National Association of REALTORS® or by credit card. Corporate advertisers will be allowed credit by NAR after approval of a credit application.
