Mid-Willamette Valley Monthly Marketing Update - November 2019
This week I am feeling very nostalgic. We are having a big celebration Friday to celebrate 10 years in business. WOW- a decade!!! So many of our sponsors and community partners have been part of our "story". Thank you to everyone who has
shared a guide with a family, provided a testimonial about of services, and to all our sponsors that make it possible for us to provide a comprehensive resource in the local community.
October was crazy busy. We just celebrated our Mid-Willamette Valley Release party in October, and in looking at the pictures I felt a wave of gratitude as I saw so many faces that are still sponsors today. Erin and I delivered 105 bags for Case Management week to all the case managers at Salem Health and Samaritan Medical Centers; the bags were filled with lots of goodies from local providers and were a big hit.
Our new big news- we are now reporting Senior Housing Availability on our website. This is just now going live and we expect a few disruptions, but please work through these with me. Our goal is for every community to be able to report their availability at no cost. Sponsors will be able to add pictures and more details, but EVERYONE is able to report their availability at no cost. Visit RetirementConnection.com/availability now to claim your listing and start reporting. We would love to have tons of examples
to show at the "Transitions of Care" meeting in Albany tomorrow.

Additional Resources
There are so many resources included in Retirement Connection, that often a few may slip past you and may not be noticed. Did you know that the guide also includes:
"When something bad happens, you have three choices:
You can either let it define you, let it destroy you or let it strengthen you. " – Dr. Seuss
As I write this newsletter, we are awaiting results from my husband, Lyman’s scans last week following six months of chemo; hoping that his cancer has not spread. No matter the result- this will not define or destroy anyone in my circle- including him. And more than anything it has showed us what he is made of, what I am made of, and what my team is made of... for that I remain grateful.
