Never a Charge!

CES 2013

We have been asked by a number of vendors whether we charge for our Interviews.

Never have, Never will. We would not compromise our editorial integrity to even consider charging for an interview. The handful of sponsors we have for the show will be clearly designated in signage, on air and in post show produced content.

Because some think we are a vendor we have received email solicitations from some media outlets asking us to pay for an interview which is quite shocking. Frankly we are surprised that the Consumers Electronic Association puts up with media companies that do this. We believe in covering vendors that have cool an innovative products not pay for play.

Our expenses to cover CES exceed $40,000 but the value of the conversations and new relationships is worth the expense. Millions of people will watch our coverage because they know from history our team’s integrity and our ability to dig down in weeds and find the cool stuff.

While we would not be able to do this show without our sponsors, we look forward to bringing you unbiased coverage of the show.

TPN CES Live Coverage Vendor Guidelines

CES 2011

TPN CES Live coverage vendor guidelines is to help vendor reps that have never appeared on a live program. We have been getting a lot of questions from vendors on the process for the live broadcast, and what to expect. I have put together a short video that talks about how to get scheduled and what to expect when you come to our broadcast studio in South Hall. One thing is for sure do not worry we plan on having a lot of fun, and all you really need to know is be yourself.

Huge Thanks to our Sponsor: Sponsor: If you headed to Vegas for the holidays, I want you to check out the great rates at The New Luxor Las Vegas. I was really impressed with all the new venues and updated rooms. It’s the new place to be.

Sponsor Announcement: Luxor Las Vegas

CES 2011

The 2011 Tech Podcast Network team is proud to announce that Luxor Las Vegas is one of our official sponsors for the 2011 show.  The TPN team will be basing their CES operations out of the beautiful Luxor Casino and Hotel.

A number of our team members were able to take a tour of the hotel a  few weeks ago, and found the rooms to be fresh and accommodating.

The real action of course is in the casino and in and around the hotel with a very hip vibe in the clubs and restaurants. The team will be exploring everything Luxor Las Vegas has to offer when we hit Vegas on January 2nd in preparation for CES 2011.

We’re excited and the Luxor staff is excited to host the coolest bunch of tech guys and gals to hit Vegas for the show.  Check out the great rates and special offers that the hotel is offering to guest through the holidays, and consider bringing in the New Year at Luxor Las Vegas.
