Now, more than ever. Our Marketing and Communications tools will deliver more value than ever for business and consumers navigating a marketplace where terms of service, hours of operation and consumer confidence are easily affected by emerging circumstances.
Connection. Collaboration. Story-telling. Members use our communication tools to stay informed, connect with others and build their brand in the eyes of other members, residents, visitors and guests.
The Megaphone is our bi-monthly advertising e-communication. Member businesses use this platform to announce sales, launch new products or offerings and build visibility for their special events.
@113 is our bi-weekly Membership Newsletter. Named for our center-city location, it speaks to what's happening in and around our office and downtown; program announcements, event updates and timely opportunities. Each edition of @113 includes a Fortnightly Feature - a free peak at a member business.
Find_It is our walk-around guide and map of Canandaigua, from Fort Hill Performing Arts Center on N. Main Street, through downtown to the pier; east on Lakeshore Dr. to CMAC and Finger Lakes Community College, circling back on Eastern Boulevard. Its primary audience is travelers and tourists.
ONCanandaigua is a lifestyle magazine and community guide; it tells the story of our natural beauty, cultural assets, talented people and vibrant food, beverage and hospitality marketplace. It also includes a comprehensive member list and paid advertisements that help inform and inspire individuals considering our community as a place to live, work or grow a business. Its primary audience is residents and people consider Canandaigua as a place to buy a home or locate a business.
Other opportunities to grow your business and your brand include single-use all-member mailing labels, annual passes for our after-hours monthly mixers and room rental for one-on-one client meetings, online collaboration or just 'room to move' you might not have at home.
