    Your tool belongs in the conversation

    Reach the people shaping social media work

    The Sauce is a specialist publication for people who plan, create, manage and measure social media. They come for useful industry reporting, practitioner insight, career development and tools that help them do better work.

    Our tool directory lets readers discover and compare products in that setting. Start with a free listing so your tool can be found. Upgrade to show people what it does and give them a direct route to your product, demo or trial.

    Who you can reach

    Brands, agencies and the people who run social.

    Our registered audience brings together people working inside brands, agencies and independent businesses, alongside creators and tool providers.

    Discovery is only the beginning

    From "What is this?" to "I want to see it in action."

    People can find your tool while exploring products relevant to their work. Your listing then helps them understand whether it is worth investigating.

    A free listing covers the essentials: your name, logo, category and a short description. A paid listing adds the detail and links that help a reader move from "What is this?" to "I want to see it in action."

    More than a listing

    Where your partnership appears.

    Featured partnerships put your tool into a planned campaign across The Sauce and SocialDay's business channels.

    On The Sauce

    Your tool receives featured placement in a relevant category and a clearly labelled Partner Content article that explains a useful topic or product application.

    In SocialDay email

    Featured partners receive two relevant placements in SocialDay emails or tools roundups. We choose the context and timing with you so the mention makes sense for the readers receiving it.

    On SocialDay LinkedIn

    A dedicated company-page post introduces your tool or partner content to our professional network.

    Through a webinar

    A Webinar Partnership gives your team room to teach, demonstrate and answer questions, supported by SocialDay production, promotion and an on-demand replay.

    Our wider social presence also helps people encounter SocialDay's reporting and events. The package inclusions below state exactly which channel placements are guaranteed.
