Concretely, CPS Network collaborates with two types of clientele: associations and companies who wish to advertise their services or their products to this primary clientele. We are the intermediary between the sponsor and the general partner. Our priority is also to seize all business opportunities and present them to our customers, always with the aim of making their income grow.

CPS Network: Description, Mission, Values, and Team
We pool our expertise in order to help motivated organizations reach their goals and successfully bring to term their projects.
Our Reason for Being
Jean Thibault, President of CPS Media, created the CPS Network entity in 2018, with the goal of offering automated services to optimize the commercial revenues of associations, community media, and advertisers, through sponsorship, advertising placements, and job offers. CPS Network is positioned as the central point through which advertisers can benefit from an economy of scale by reaching their target customers and thus convert qualified prospects through your association or media. Our primary objective is to simplify, standardize, and generate income for all our customers, whether associations, community media, or advertisers wishing to reach a target clientele (personas) who is part of one of our networks of associations. Concretely, we support associations and community media when it comes to generating higher revenues, marketing events through sponsorship, and standardizing and optimizing their media. On the other hand, our strength resides in supporting associations or community media in setting up efficient measurement systems of statistical data for advertisers and recruiters. This data is used to better align the marketing strategies of advertisers or recruiters so that they can maximize their return on investment. We are the pivotal point between partners (associations and community media) and sponsors (advertisers).
Our Corporate Mission and the Values That Transcend Our Way of Being
CPS is the intermediary between the General Partner and the sponsor.
CPS Network has adopted a mission corresponding to its primary vocation: that of simplifying and optimizing the connections between various stakeholders. Its mission is to offer its cutting-edge expertise in the sale of sponsorship and services generating tangible short-term revenues for associations and community media, while optimizing the return on investment of organizations that advertise through these networks. We aspire to accelerate their financial growth by increasing the points of contact with the target audience of advertisers. All while being measurable. Media creativity, the introduction of performance measurement tools, and support in best market practises are intrinsic to our way of collaborating with our customers.
Our Corporate Values Are Born From Our Collaborative Values
These values guide our interactions, our operations, and represent the essence of the nature of each employee who collaborates on files. A human approach oriented towards simplification, flexibility, rigorousness, and collaboration—these are our corporate values.
Our Commitment Is Our Customer Promise
CPS Network centres around a human approach; it’s at the heart of the actions, decisions, and recommendations that we carry out daily. It guides our interpersonal skills and our know-how. Our great knowledge of your issues allows us to better support you, advise you, and help take your organization to the next level. We have been in the area of partnerships, strategic alliances, and sponsorship for 30 years. When we collaborate with an organization, our only goal is to find tips and ways to optimize performance and ensure its sustainability. And we have become experts in this field. We have a global vision allowing us to target the aspects to be optimized in order to achieve your primary objective. This is what we do best.
Our Ambition: Simplification, Enhancement, Growth.
Three keywords define our vision: simplification, enhancement, growth. Our ambition is to create a single, automated platform to allow associations, community media, and advertisers to connect and generate measurable income in the short term. The objective is therefore to concretely help the employees and volunteers of associations to simplify their operations (marketing, event organization, financial management, command program, management of communications to members, and management of job offers) and put them in contact with organizations that wish to speak to their community. The fact is that these same advertisers have provided a marketing budget to help reach this valued clientele which is precisely your members or your listeners or readers, if appropriate.
The Team’s Bios and Mottos!
Our team is essentially made up of collaborators with cutting-edge expertise, strong involvement, and a desire to succeed in the projects entrusted to us. For our team to be finely operational and efficient, everyone has a well-defined role and everyone knows their level of involvement in the file. Each project is seen as a whole, each cell of which is optimized locally, to come to an avant-garde and competent global vision at the highest level.
