Sponsored content is a storytelling-based form of advertising that allows businesses, organizations, or sponsors to share their message in a more engaging and informative way. Instead of a traditional ad, sponsored content appears as an article, interview, spotlight feature, or video that aligns with the overall mission of Harnett Cares while highlighting your brand, product, service, or impact.

It’s a great way to connect with the community, build trust, and share your story in a format that feels authentic, not salesy. If this type of visibility sounds like a good fit, fill out the interest form to explore creative ways to bring your message to life.

Each type of involvement offers a unique way to support and engage with Harnett Cares:

• Advertising is a paid promotional opportunity designed to give your business visibility. This includes featured ads on the website, calendar, directory, digital content, and print media.

• Sponsorship involves financial or in-kind support for specific programs, events, or content. Sponsors receive recognition and visibility tied to their level of support, such as logo placement, mentions, and co-branded opportunities. Sponsors also gain increased access to featured advertising options, priority placement, and exclusive sponsor-only ad perks.

• Partnerships are more collaborative and typically involve an ongoing or active role. Partners may contribute time, services, or shared resources and often work alongside the project to co-create content, lead initiatives, or support long-term goals. Certain types of advertising are also included as part of partnership opportunities, giving partners enhanced access to featured placements, priority visibility, and exclusive partner-only perks that align with their involvement and impact.
