Mid-Willamette Valley March Marketing Update
|
We have made improvements to our event-submission form on our website. It is now easier and faster to post your upcoming events to share with professionals and the community. Start sending us your events by clicking here. Lucas Johnson, who joined our team in January is now managing all of the event postings and is doing a great job. Send him an email if you would like to connect in person or just want to say "hello". He is looking forward to getting to know each of you.
We continue to grow- We are also please to share that our growth into Linn, Benton and Lincoln county is going quite well and our partners at Oregon Cascades West Council of Governments have already shared 4000 copies of the guide with the seniors they serve. We are also planning our growth into Puget Sound, Washington and have hired 2 local staff from Gig Harbor to run that market and ensure we are always available to support our local sponsors here in Oregon.

Opportunity
"Do one thing every day that scares you."- Eleanor Roosevelt
Every time we hire a new person, add a new feature to the website, promote a new event, or open a new market - I am always afraid. Afraid of failure; afraid I will disappoint others; afraid of the financial implications and more. But in the long run I need to remember that I did my due diligence, made an informed decision and remember I can adjust course as needed. My advise to you- feel the fear and do it anyway. Use the fear to motivate yourself. - Amy
