Alliances website page upgraded

The alliances page on the AMI website has been revamped to reflect the many organisations that provide assistance to the Institute at a national and state level. The organisations have been categorised under major sponsor, national sponsor, state sponsor, and industry ally.

We encourage you to browse this page to find out more about how these organisations aid the Institute and to examine the wide range of products and services they have available. Links to their websites are accessible from the alliances page.

New service for CPMs being developed

An online Marketing Services Directory is being developed exclusively for CPMs, who will be provided with the opportunity to list their marketing-related services on the AMI website. The directory will enable any member of the public or organisations seeking marketing services to search online for service providers by key categories including market research, marketing communications or creative services. More details will be available next month.
