EXPOSURE FOR YOUR BUSINESS |
In the mail is your invitation to be a part of this year's Chamber Golf Outing. There are so many ways for each chamber member to participate; what is a good fit for you?
This year more than ever, golf sponsorships allow year-round exposure for your business. Golfers will love this event and they can either sign up as a foursome or individuals. Prizes for the Raffle are always needed and some suggestions are gift certificates, electronics, foursomes, summertime paraphenalia (coolers, umbrella chairs), etc. Volunteers are needed to make this day run smoothly. Purchasing raffle tickets is another way to support this major chamber fundraiser.
Sometimes, it's tough to get your business name out there. How do you do it? What is effective for you? Is it a one-time deal?
Save the date - July 18th we'll be at Klein Creek Golf Club, swinging at that little white ball. But sponsorship brings you more than a sign on the course this year. Depending on the level you choose, you can have exposure during the year through our website, eBlasts, and newsletter flyers INCLUDED in your sponsorship!
Add your MUGSHOT to the poster that will be found at our chamber events. Keep that "Top of Mind Awareness"....by being a Sponsor for the 2013 Chamber Golf "Classic! Click here for information on levels and watch for a mailing during April where you can sign up your foursome. FORE!! |
