Commercial

The Moonraker wants to establish commercial relationships with businesses who care about the Swindon community.

Find out more about our plans, and how you and your business can be a part of this gamechanging plan for local journalism in our region, below...

What is The Moonraker's commercial policy?

We have made a commitment not to ruin the reader experience with invasive and intrusive display advertising, but that does not mean the doors are closed to advertising partnerships.

Instead, we want our commercial partners to provide a tangible benefit to our reader community.

This could be a discount, a special offer, a free gift, entry onto a loyalty programme, early access to tickets or other initiatives which show a willingness to engage an audience for all the right reasons.

What will your business get as a commercial partner of The Moonraker?

The Moonraker is all about reconnecting local media with the community it is meant to serve.

Conceived, designed and run by supporters of EFL teams, and driven by Sam Morshead - one of the most established reporters on Swindon Town of recent years - our number one aim is to develop a platform that puts the community first.

As a commercial partner, you will get access to a loyal and engaged audience of fans, most of whom are from families with generational connections to the town of Swindon.

You will have the opportunity to curate original, targeted and bespoke campaigns, within The Moonraker's commercial framework.

You will be able to tap into local digital marketing and audience expertise, and expose your brand or business to captive markets.

What's more, The Moonraker pledges to keep commercial and advertising rates low, giving all Swindon businesses - however small - the chance to be a part of this big change in the direction of local sports journalism.

If you, as a business owner or manager, think your organisation shares the same ethics, intentions and aspirations for the future, we'd be delighted to have a conversation.

How much will commercial partnerships with The Moonraker cost?

There is no set rate card at The Moonraker. We will work with you to design a bespoke campaign which is in line with your marketing strategy and our desire to give something back to our members.

We are a proactive, future-thinking local media outlet which cares about our community, and we're keen to connect with brands and businesses which hold similar outlooks.
