Digital Advertising

In keeping pace with an ever-evolving digital world, AzDA has developed digital offerings, which are especially appealing to companies looking to target earlier-career dentists. For up-to-date stats about the digital platform you’re considering, reach out to tyler@azda.org.


AzDA Mobile App footer ad

Why consider advertising on the mobile app?
AzDA has one of the most robust, user-friendly dental association apps in the entire country. In fact, several other states have contracted with AzDA to build their dental association app. For a report of current statistics, email tyler@azda.org. If there are specific statistics you’d like in that report, please indicate which KPIs you’re looking for.

Exclusivity and Run time:
Only one banner ad is run on the AzDA mobile app at one time.

The footer ad runs for six consecutive months in a row except during the Western Regional Dental Experienceand during the Fall Conference. During these events, typically 2-3 days each, AzDA charges a premium sponsorship fee to advertise on the mobile app, but it is just during these events. Once the events have concluded, the sponsorship and the ad expires, and then the six-month advertiser resumes their ad position. Because this opportunity does not include exposure during WRDE or Fall Conference, the pricing has been notably reduced.

Specs & details:
The banner measures 320 pixels wide x 50 pixels high.
RGB; 72 dpi
Unless renewed, the ad automatically expires at the end of 6 months (180 days from when the ad was placed on the AzDA App).

Cost and payments:
$66/month for 6 months; $396. Balance paid upfront
