The Financial Planning Association of Iowa members are supported by a number of exceptional sponsors who help offset the cost of delivering benefits. These sponsors are helping to lead FPA's message of building the community of the financial planning profession, with their commitment to the association, its mission and its members.

The FPA of Iowa is excited to announce the Partnership Program which will afford you the opportunity to partner with our association over the course of an entire year rather than by each single event. The Benefits At A Glance explains quickly the differences between the three levels. We believe the Platinum Package offers the best value. You will receive an exhibit booth and attendee list for the annual Symposium; an opportunity to sponsor and provide a presentation at a monthly membership meeting; a golf sponsorship, a scholarship sponsorship, a full page ad in our directory, as well as the chance to network at all of our monthly meetings. Platinum partners also receive exclusive representation at any social gatherings of FPA members. The Gold Package and Silver Package also offer great opportunities to interact with our membership by exhibiting at the Symposium and attending monthly chapter meetings.

These packages offer you an excellent opportunity to become a valued partner of our organization and to reap the rewards of establishing a strong relationship with the premier financial planning organization in the state. We also offer a

If the above packages do not fit your specific needs, we may have openings A la Carte where you can pick and choose those benefits most suited for you. Priority is given to Platinum, Gold and Silver Partners.

The Financial Planning Association of Iowa Partnerships are available on a first-come, first-served basis. To reserve your partnership, call the Partnership Director or contact the FPA Iowa Office at 515-987-8344 or office@fpaiowa.org. A Letter of Agreement also needs to be completed.

Quality Marketing Options
The Chapter sends its members and prospects (approximately 1,200 financial professionals!) a newsletter that contains information about upcoming meetings, Chapter public relations activities, practice management information, national educational opportunities and more. Members tell us it’s the one periodical they are sure to read. This means that your marketing insert and/or advertisement in FPA of Iowa News will be noticed and read!

Membership Mailings
The Chapter values its membership list highly and does not sell the mailing list to the general public. Therefore, our members are not flooded with marketing mailings related to their Chapter membership. So depending on your level of sponsorship, Chapter members tend to read mailings because they are receptive to the information and marketing message.

Symposium
In addition, Partnering opportunities are also available at the Annual Symposium. You must be a Platinum, Gold or Silver Partner to take advantage of these offerings.
