Cody Chamber E-Newsletter * October 12, 2012

Exec Bits

Good morning!

As many of you move out of the busy summer season and create your marketing plans for 2013, I want to remind you of the excellent web advertising opportunities the Chamber has available.

Our new site - www.codychamber.org - was redesigned this year, and we have advertising to fit all budgets. The Chamber site is used extensively by visitors, locals and those looking to relocate to the area and is a trusted source of information, and it's the #2 site on Google for "Cody, Wyoming" searches. This is your opportunity to effectively market your business and drive more customers to your door on one of the first places people look for local information.

Ads range from $12.50/month to $100 month and are available throughout the site, including the homepage and webcam. As you set your advertising budget for next year, don't forget one of the best local tools available - www.codychamber.org. Call me today at 587-2777 to reserve your space and put the Chamber site to work for you!

If you haven't done so already, mark Thursday, October 25th from 4-6 p.m. on your calendar. That's when our next Business After Hours will take place. The Chamber will be hosting this to say thank you to our loyal members and also to honor visitor center manager Karen Miller for her 17 years of service to Cody businesses. Come enjoy some food, drink and a chance to network and let Karen know how much she's meant to our community.

Finally, if you have a chance to donate a bag (or bags) of candy to support our downtown businesses who host hundreds of trick-or-treaters on Halloween, it would certainly be appreciated. Drop a bag off at the Chamber or Big Horn Radio Network, or if you prefer to make a cash donation, we'll buy candy and make sure it gets in the hands of our downtown merchants. Let's support these businesses who support our kids.

Thanks for your membership! We have such a great business community, and it's an honor to serve as your director. Please let us know if there is ever anything we can do for you.
