Can I upgrade my adthisway.com subscription ?
Users may at anytime upgrade their packages including more type of clients (e.g. in case of organizations, they may have initially selected only the companies package and then decide to add also the contractors package).
My free trial is going to expire soon. What can I do ?
Can I sign up as a Company and as a Contractor at the same time?
An entity signs up as a Company, in order to publish its advertising needs and get matches with organizations and talents that publish their advertising offers. A Company also publishes its needs in contractors services and gets matches with contractors that publish their offers in contractors services.
An entity signs up as a Contractor, in order to publish its contractor services offers and get matches with companies, organizations and talents that publish their contractor services needs (have in mind that a Contractor may also upload advertising needs and get matches with organizations and talents that publish their advertising offers).
An entity can be a Company and a Contractor at the same time e.g. a car rental company has advertising needs and at the same time offers contractor services to other companies, organizations and talents (car rental services to those entities).
In order for an entity to use both client identities (Company and Contractor), it must register as subscriber 2 separate times, using the same Tax Id, BUT using different email address.
I am a Media Organization. Can I sign up with different accounts for my different media brands?
In order for a Media Organization to use different accounts for its different media brands, it must register as subscriber 2 (or more if desired) separate times, using the same Tax Id, BUT using different email address.

How to set up my Profile and Offers/ Needs and take the best out of Adthisway.com – Best Practices – General
General guidelines when setting up the profile and the offer/needs (for all types of users):
Fill all necessary fields (with *). If you have no relevant info, put something similar or more generic. If it is number, then put i.e. 0
Please follow the provided types to upload your info e.g.
- in the time period field, the date type is like 01-01-2025 and not any other way (e.g. 01/01/2025 or 1/1/2025 etc.).
- in budget and costs fields, it is just the number with no points or commas e.g. 1000 (not 1.000 or 1,000).
Even if it is not mandatory to fill some fields e.g. Achievements, we encourage you to do so, as it would help the entity you match with to get the most info possible about you.
How to set up my Profile and Offers and take the best out of Adthisway.com – Best Practices – Companies
When publishing your needs for promotion (you are a Company):
Put as many needs as possible. There are many Organizations and Talents out there looking, and by putting just few needs you decrease the chance to be matched with them. Setting up a need takes you only 1 second!
In the budget range cells, put a logical upper and lower number based on a realistic expected number you have in mind e.g. If you are a company looking for promotion through an influencer and you have in mind that 10.000 euros would be a normal budget for your company, then you could put 5.000 as the lower number and 15.000 as the upper number. That way you take advantage of all the options between 5.000 and 15.000. Maybe the option for 6.000 is equally good and of course cheaper. Or on the other hand, the 12.000 option may be little more expensive, but possibly worth going for it! If you narrow it to 9.000-11.000, then less options will come up.
When publishing your needs for contractors (you are a Company):
Put as many needs as possible. There are many Contractors out there looking, and by putting just few needs you decrease the chance to be matched with them. Setting up a need takes you only 1 second!

When setting up your profile (you are an Organization of any type):
- Don’t forget to upload images that are needed.
- Audience = the demographics of your audience etc. men 15-34 years old etc.
- Markets = the geographical area of your audience.
- Ratings = the ratings provided by the media (mostly for professional or large amateur organizations where the media sponsors and broadcasters offer that info).
- Analytics = the same as rating, but for digital media.
- In the Product section, you should put your games or events schedule with the provided forms (either manually or on line with a url).
When publishing your offer (you are an Organization of any type):
- Don’t forget to upload images that are needed. In the image field there is no need to upload a photo showing a particular offer, if you don’t have one. You can just upload your logo or a generic photo of your organization / yourself (if you are a talent).
- Put as many offers as possible. There are many Companies and Contractors out there looking, and by putting just few offers you decrease the chance to be matched with them. Setting up an offer takes you only 1 second!

We strongly encourage you to publish at least 1 offer per basic offer category. The usual advertising / sponsorship categories in sports and culture are:
- Advertising on uniforms (choose Sponsorships -> Uniform Branding -> specific type).
- Advertising on branding (choose Advertising -> Branding -> specific type).
- Advertising via social media (choose Advertising -> Digital and Social Media Promo -> specific type).
- Sponsorships.
Concerning Sponsorships, there is no option to choose Sponsorship category and put there the provisions you offer. BUT, you can easily use the platform with the same result as follows (using an example of a sports organization):
- Choose the most valuable provision for your big sponsor category e.g. front part of the uniforms (choose Sponsorships -> Uniform Branding -> Shirt Front Part).
-
Fill in the description field the basic provisions this sponsor would get and Name it accordingly e.g.
Big Sponsor with the following provisions:
- Shirt Front Part,
- LED spots,
- In stadium banners,
- Social media campaigns,
- Promotional events,
- Other you may think of.
- There is no need to put detailed info (it will not let you anyways since there is a words number limitation) since you can easily explain and send this info to the matching company when you contact them after you match with them.
- In the description cell there is no need to put lots of info. Put only the important info e.g. If you are a basketball club offering led signage promotion, you could put (number of times) X (number of seconds’’) spots per game for all (number of home games).

How often should I use Adthisway?
It takes you less than 20mins to register, set up a profile and publish your needs and offers!
After that, you can edit your profile, add new needs / offers or edit the existing ones in just few minutes any other time you choose to do it.
So, after completing the profile and needs / offers (and if needed edit this info) all work is done from your side and you just relax and wait to match with others.
The best practice is to log in once a day at a convenient time for you, to check if you have any matches:
You go to your packages -> click on the word Offers or Needs (whatever you have in each case) -> click View/Search -> click Find Needs or Offers -> the match is shown (if there is any any) -> click on the name of the match -> view its profile and see its contact details.
It will take you only 1 min, but it can give you long lasting and valuable partners!
How do I contact the entity I match with?
Contacting the entity you match with is your responsibility.
Adthisway.com is a platform, not an agency.
You can call or email the contact person of this matching entity and discuss the terms of a potential cooperation.
If you have an agency, then your agency can help you with that.
If you don’t have an agency, you can use www.ckagency.eu that is the agency Adthisway.com works with.
But in any case you can choose the way you will contact the matching entity.
