How national sponsorship works

Own your category. Across every edition.

Your brand appears in every capital-city edition on your day, every week — not a one-off ad buy, a standing presence in a daily reading habit right across the country.

1

Claim your category

One national sponsor per category. Sign it and no competitor of yours appears anywhere in the network — not in any city, not on any day.

2

Run across all six editions

Your message lands in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and Canberra — the same morning, every week, as a standing national presence.

3

We do the rest

Send us your copy, or we'll write it for you at no charge. You approve everything before it runs, and get one plain-English report across the whole network each month.

What readers say

The kind of audience that writes back

Verbatim, from our May 2026 reader survey — the readers your message would sit beside.

Only you — I love getting it every morning.

Melbourne reader

I love the Adelaide focus and the personalised feel of it.

Adelaide reader

I share the brainteaser with my family every day… we do the quiz together.

Canberra reader

A positive morning read makes my day.

Morning Post reader

Nothing I'd change — honestly, it's great!!

Adelaide reader

I love the local feel, along with bits of everything else.

Why a newsletter?

You could boost another post. Or you could own the morning.

Most of our sponsors' alternative isn't another publication — it's Facebook and Google ads. Here's the honest comparison:

Morning Post sponsorshipFacebook & Google ads
Who sees itThe same over-50s readers, in every capital, every weekWhoever the algorithm serves it to, fleetingly
What it costsOne flat monthly rateAn auction — the price rises as competitors bid
Your competitorsLocked out — one sponsor per categoryBidding on the same audience, and on your name
The settingInside a daily email readers chose and trustInterrupting a feed built to scroll past
Work requiredNone — we write and design it for youCreative testing, campaign management, agency fees

Keep your search ads for people already looking. Sponsorship does the other half of the job: being the name they recognise — and trust — when they do.

Founding national sponsors

Priced to your campaign, not a rate card

We're signing one founding sponsor per category, across the whole network — first in, best dressed.
