It seems that most of us are preparing ourselves for the fall season already. Now that most kids are back in school and the summer months are coming to end we are now already thinking about....winter. Planning, prepping and deciding where we will decide to advertise in anticipation of the winter travelers. The question of the year seems to be "How can we get them to our town?" Many of us are brainstorming and wondering how we can maximize the customers and revenue in our businesses without blowing our budgets completely.

There are many effective advertising choices between local newspapers and fall/winter/spring guides that are in the works, as well as many other venues you can choose from. This can be a stressful decision as there are so many choices and some that cost much more than others. As a business owner I would caution you to research all of your choices carefully.

We also want to let everyone know in advance, that we have moved our November meeting from Wednesday the 18th to Tuesday the 17th due to conflicting meeting schedules. We hope to see everyone next month at our October 21st meeting.
