Portland/VancouverMonthly Marketing Update- January 2024
My favorite moments of the past month have been the phone calls with individual seniors calling to order an updated copy of Retirement Connection for Portland/Vancouver. It is heartwarming to know that we are making a difference and
bringing value to our community. The new edition will hit the streets this week, and we are distributing it to EVERY hospital, library, senior center, and hundreds of other locations. If your organization would like to keep a supply on hand to assist seniors looking for a copy- please complete this form to be included on the interactive map, where a family can search by location to pick up a copy nearest their location. If a senior does not drive or lives out of the area, we will continue to mail a copy.
Come
celebrate with us, because we are bringing back the Release Party. Join more than 200 referral sources in the Pearl District on February 7th for drinks, hors d'oeuvres, and the biggest networking event of the year. Details below, RSVP requested to assist us with food and beverage planning.
Hopefully, you saw our post on Facebook last week as we welcomed the newest sponsors in the guide. We are excited to be working with so many new sponsors. Please take a moment to connect. Both Retirement Connection and CareAvailability.com continue to thrive, and as always- please let our sponsors (aka Advertisers) know that you found them through these resources. The guide, website, and all of our events remain free to the community because of the support of our sponsors.

“Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.”―Dr Seuss
As the holiday season ends, and I reflect on time with family and miss those no longer with us; sometimes I am overwhelmed with feelings of sadness. I try to be grateful for the amazing memories and wonderful people who have blessed my life for the better. Without the valleys of our lives, we would never appreciate the peaks.
