What referencing opportunities does SAS offer?

As a reference program participant, you can rest assured that SAS is dedicated to ensuring your success. Imagine having the opportunity to share your thoughts – your expertise – with industry experts, others in your field and even those in your own organization with whom you might not otherwise cross paths.

Tailored to meet your needs

Through a careful balance of formats and channels, SAS works with you to create a communications plan – based on your needs and preferences – that puts the right message in the right place at the right time for your organization.

Media coverage – Our media relations team works with a number of national, regional and industry-specific media outlets to identify opportunities for our customers to share their efforts and best practices. We'll help you develop a communications plan that's unique to you and meets your professional and organizational goals.

Speaking engagements – We work with you to secure speaking opportunities at important business and industry events, as well as SAS executive conferences – putting you in front of top decision makers at leading organizations anxious to learn from your success. Other related opportunities include workshops, Web seminars, roundtable discussions, peer-to-peer sharing and more.

Awards – Winning awards gives your company and your project recognition and validation. Our team works with yours to prepare your organization's applications for awards from respected industry publications and associations.
