WHY BE A VENDOR
EXTENSIVE MARKETING:
How the Chamber promotes YOUR business and the EXPO:
¨ Promotion through the Chamber’s social media platforms, Week at a Glance newsletter and website
¨ The Chamber will INDIVIDUALLY announce your business as a vendor on social media. You decide how that announcement looks: Business logo w/ fun facts, photo with fun facts, or a video announcement (we’ll provide the guidelines and suggestions, send some past examples, and even record the video if you like)
¨ Your business will be listed as a participant in the Siouxland Business Journal following the event
¨ Live radio remote at the event—be one of the first ten businesses to register and you will get to chat on-air with a radio celebrity from Powell Broadcasting (2 vendors per remote break).
¨ A Positively Siouxland radio feature promoting the EXPO will run on Powell Broadcasting stations the weeks leading up to the event
¨ Electronic invite to all Chamber members
¨ Public announcements and public invitation to the EXPO on media outlets—radio, television & print
