Brand USA accepts cash contributions that we may deploy to promote international travel to the United States via results-driven programs and platforms. The partnership begins with a conversation with our partner engagement team, where we can walk you through the LOA contribution process and hear your international marketing objectives.

The general path for any of the cooperative activity that we do with any contributing partner is as follows:

• Partner signs a letter of agreement to contribute funds to Brand USA; the contribution is made
• Partner and Brand USA may consult on creative, markets, timing, and media channels ensuring that any plan further our mutual missions
• Brand USA either contracts with a third party vendor (either directly with a media owner or via a media buying agency) or launches programming using internal or affiliated resources
• Brand USA pays for the marketing and promotional work it authorized.

Brand USA will use your contribution solely for marketing or promotional activity designed to attract international visitors. You may specify the international market, marketing channel, seasonality, and target audience. Cooperative marketing is one of the major marketing categories that Brand USA is active in, which provide opportunities for organizations, regardless of their budget, to partner with Brand USA to promote travel experiences to, through, and beyond the gateways.

Brand USA offers cooperative marketing programs in multiple international markets. You can learn more about available programs here.
