Fred D. distributed snaps and brochures advertising tourist <br /> attractions and B&B' s in Florence , Mass. and Vermont. <br /> We need to coordinate our efforts with the Mashpee Chamber as <br /> these brochures are expensive to reproduce. He recommended <br /> asking the Selectmen to allot $5 ,000 in EDC' s FY99 budget to <br /> cover this. <br /> Wayne D. noted that the Cha�aber is working with Butterworth <br /> to sponsor the printing of mini maps . The Chamber receives <br /> $4 , 000 from Mashpee , and they are open to working with us. <br /> Jack H. suggested acquiring brochure size MPG stands . <br /> Fred D. stated there is an underground B&B network in <br /> Popponesset, and Jane Coogan took him to see some of these homes. <br /> She is involved in a Project Homestate grant. He also noted <br /> three places to stay in Mashpee on Page 12 of the Chamber ' s <br /> Visitor Guide. <br /> Wayne D. would like to invite the ciiedia to attend one of our. <br /> meetings to interview EDC members on what direction we are going. <br /> In summary, we need to do a formalized B&B effort and/or a broad- <br /> based marketing tool with community sponsorship. <br /> Fred D. moved to table the innkeeper idea and pursue reproducing <br /> maps with the Chamber. Jack H. seconded. Unanimous. <br /> Fred D. will pursue other possibilities for seminars. <br /> Wayne D. will contact the Mashpee Enterprise about placing a' <br /> solicitation ad to attract potential innkeepers in Mashpee and <br /> ask them to contact him by phone or internet. <br /> Marketing: Jack H. researched links and prices for beefing <br /> up the internet and Webb site . <br /> 1 ) $300 to establish links , which lists site with search <br /> engines ; there could be further categorizing ( i .e. sports , <br /> entertainment, dining , travel , etc. ) <br /> - 400 locations <br /> - 4 hours of work on the Webb site ( @ $40 hr. rate) <br /> - Banner advertising available <br /> 2 ) $200 - $600 to make modifications to our Mashpee site <br /> - Add 1-3 panes to the Webb site <br /> - Hot link to the Chamber <br /> Page 2 of 4 <br />
