I’m from an ad agency — anything special I should know?

Inside Higher Ed values our agency clients. Register or log in to our special agency page — you’ll be able to post jobs for any client via your account, track all your postings, re-post expired jobs, even track the page views on postings for your clients.

Inside Higher Ed pays a 15% agency commission for any and all products/services sold by recognized ad agencies (we use the Standard Director of Advertising Agencies to identify legitimate agencies). Post jobs via the agency page and we’ll automatically deduct your commission.

Agencies can place postings for institutions receiving special pricing from Inside Higher Ed — your commission will be deducted from the institution price.

And Inside Higher Ed pays full commission on packages sold by ad agencies — please see our rates for information on available packages.

For more help, please contact our Sales Director, Laura McFarland, at 202-659-9208, extension 102 or by e-mail at laura.mcfarland@insidehighered.com
