SVCC Membership Directory Is Coming In December!
|
The Cabinet Press and SVCC have partnered to publish a magazine-style Chamber Membership Directory that will be inserted in the December 18 Cabinet Press. All Chamber Members in good standing will be included in the publication Free of charge with their name, business, and contact information. If you are not currently a Chamber member but considering joining, now is the time! Deadline is November 21 to participate.
This is an exciting opportunity for all members. In advertising-speak, the magazine format has a longer 'shelf life,' meaning that readers will hang on to the directory as a reference for services or goods. Besides distribution in the Cabinet, SVCC will also receive copies for distribution in the office, welcome bags and other opportunities. We will have copies available at the December Business After Hours on Wednesday, December 17.
Advertising is what drives publications and makes it possible for the Cabinet to publish our directory. Please consider advertising in the directory when contacted by the Cabinet. Many thanks to the Cabinet Press!
