Marketing Tips!
Many entities are new to marketing their public activities and events. Here's a few pointers on how to
get the best results from our FREE media format.
Plan ahead! If possible, start your ad campaign three months prior to the event or activity date.
We publish bi-monthly Shout-outs on Wednesdays directly to our subscribers and post them on up to
30+ social media sites each edition. "What you say times how many times you say it" is most
effective in any media format!
Branding! Make sure you are consistent with your logo and tagline! It helps the public identify with you and gets them familiar with what you have to offer.
Proper format! Publishing for 10+years we've learned what our audience responds to. It is important that you submit an ad that fits our format!
If you're unable to create an ad but know how tocreate a Facebook Event, you can snip the ad in the
proper format directly from that page. Please include your website or social media link to connect
with it. Ad is published as a hot link that will take the visitor directly to your information.
Call to Action! All ads must have a call to action or activity date. We do not publish generic ads as they are not effective in our format.
In 2014, the "Visit Canoa" eco-tourism media campaign was created to "Keep Tourism Local" by sharing information on local attractions and activities with our audience and new visitors to the Canoa Heritage Area in our bi-monthly Shout-outs.
In 2019, the addition of our "Evolution of Canoa" art/history display at the Canoa Ranch Rest Area on I-19 helped to expand our visitor reach and has generated a fast-growing international market that was previously untapped in our area.
WE'RE SHARING OUR ADVERTISING RESOURCES WITH LOCAL STAKEHOLDERS TO REACH THIS MARKET FOR FREE!
Friends of Canoa Heritage Foundation, Inc. is a historic preservation organization, all volunteers no paid employees. Promotions and marketing are a biproduct of our Canoa Ranch Rest Area art/history preservation project. We share this access to a previously untapped international and loyal local audience with the communities that we serve in the Canoa Heritage Area at no cost.
Tech fees: Our audience and stakeholder contacts have grown considerably, increasing the cost to reach them electronically. These additional costs were slowly draining our foundations general fund, of which we could not continue to sustain for activities outside of our mission. The "Tech Fees" help to cover the increased cost of sharing our audience with you!
Thank you for your support!
Your contributions have allowed us to continue to share our resources and "Keep Tourism Local!"
