The Grand Prairie Community Directory & Referral Guide will again be produced  IN GRAND PRAIRIE !
 
Dear Chamber Member:

 
The Grand Prairie Chamber of Commerce and its Board of Directors are excited to announce that this year's Community Directory will again be produced by the Chamber of Commerce, its staff and several of our local members. This same information is used to update your listing on the Chamber's website, so please help us keep this information up to date!
 
This Community Directory and Referral Guide publication is a great business tool as Chamber members use it to refer business.  Some of the 6,000 books are used for new businesses and citizens who come to the community looking for products and services as they begin to enjoy our wonderful city through our relocation packets. 
 
This publication will be full-color, high-tech and high quality!  It will be a marketing opportunity for you to promote your company in our chamber's most in demand publication.  It will promote our entire community in a style that you will be proud of.  The Chamber staff will also be looking for new photos of our area for the publication.  If you have a photo or photos you would like to have considered - send them to the chamber office in hard copy or via e-mail in jpeg format.
 
The production of this Directory and Referral Guide will be supported solely by self-generated revenues, with rates from $350 to $10,000.  If you would like to be a bigger part of this valuable and informative new Directory by placing your sponsorship, you can contact Gregory Cashman by calling (972)264-1558, cell: (817)999-2696, fax the form below, or email: greg@grandprairiechamber.org to set up an appointment or to receive more information.   The ad deadline is August 6, 2010.  
 
Thank you in advance for your support and participation.
 
Sincerely,
Lynn McGinley,
President
