Mid-Willamette Valley
Monthly Marketing Update- January 2024

Thank you so much to all of our Mid-Willamette Valley Retirement Connection Sponsors! The guide, website, and all of our events remain free to the community because of the support of our sponsors. We are already working on the next edition and are constantly making updates and additions. Please let us know of additional resources you wish to see included in the upcoming guide. We are never too busy to be a resource to you. Let me know if we can help you post an event, post an article or news, deliver guides, or just be a sounding board.

From a business perspective, I am beyond thankful for our continued growth in print and online. Every week a senior calls to share how the guide has helped their family, or a provider gives a testimonial on how the guide helped grow their business. I am grateful to work with a fantastic team that is passionate about being a resource to the community. I appreciate everyone who posts events online with us, shares the guide, sends someone to our website for help, and networks with us each month. The early bird discount to save 10% for 2024 just ended. Thank you to our sponsors who reserved their ad space early and made all of our work possible because of their advertising. Please return the favor and refer to our sponsors whenever possible. If you missed the discount opportunity, please call us or email right away to capture the discount. (ad copy and payment are not needed until fall 2024)

Nugget Of Knowledge
“Bad news early, is good news.”Angus Brown

No one likes hearing bad news, but typically it is always better to know sooner than later. Whether it is a staffing change, budget cuts, event cancellation, a breakup, etc- the earlier we know, the earlier we can better adapt and shift course. So if you must deliver bad news, don’t procrastinate and help all parties involved plan for the future. Often when we are prepping the next edition of the print guide, we do not get a reply to several email and phone call attempts, only to hear at the 11th hour that budgets or priorities have changed. Giving bad news may be unpleasant, but it is better when given early.
