WELCOME

                     Welcome to IHRSA’s 2020 Media Planner. One of the great
                     things about working in an industry such as ours is knowing that for the
                     past 39 years, there has been one organization, IHRSA, that has been,
                     and always is, looking out for best interests of club owners and industry
                     suppliers. In fact, as a not-for-profit association, IHRSA invest all profits
                     that it generates back into initiatives that help fuel industry growth. The
                     owners of IHRSA are its members, not share-holders, not private equity
                     interests, just IHRSA members – like you.
                     In the pages that follow, you will find the editorial and publishing
                     schedules for all of IHRSA’s print and digital media platforms. As

                     to provide credible industry research and news on the trends and
                     interesting happenings in this dynamic global industry of ours.
                      IHRSA members are the club leaders - the “movers and shakers” - who
                     are driving the industry’s growth worldwide. We have the privilege to

ONLINE AD SPECIFICATIONS & GUIDELINES
Image Creatives - An image creative is based on an image file in GIF,
JPG, or PNG format. Only the RGB color format is supported. (If you’re
using a JPG file with a CMYK color format, you can convert the JPG to
GIF or PNG.)

HTML5 DIMENSION GUIDELINES
» Unlike images or videos, HTML documents don’t have dimensions
   on their own. Therefore, use the size meta tag to indicate the
   intended size for your creative and ensure your creative renders
   at the right dimensions:
   .
» HTML5 creatives can only have fixed dimensions (e.g., 300x250,
   400x400, 728x90, etc.). Dynamic sizes such as “Fluid” aren’t supported.
» For creative HTML files in Google Web Designer bundles, the
   minWidth and minHeight properties of the creative Properties
   parameter must be non-zero. For example, “creative
   Properties”:{“minWidth”:0,”minHeight”0,”maxWidth”:0,
   ”maxHeight”:0} results in an error.
