Publishers offering "Sponsored Message" spots
A sponsored message is an ad that lands in a user's inbox or messages instead of a feed, such as a LinkedIn inbox message or a sponsored YouTube channel message. It reads like a personal note with a button.
- How it's sold
- LinkedIn and similar platforms sell it self-serve through their ad tools, and smaller publishers like Goodereader sell it through their sales team. Two publishers list it today.
- Typical price
- Median USD 149 per post. Large platforms often price it per send instead, so check the basis with each publisher.
- What you supply
- A short message, a sender name, a call to action and a link.
- Best for
- Campaigns that start a direct conversation, such as a demo request or event invite.
- Before you buy
- Look up the frequency limits, and write the message so it reads as a helpful note.
