Advertising/Marketing
We are sponsoring the sports once a week in the mornings on
KICKS96. I have this scheduled thru November. We will take
a month off and then run these ads again in January, February, and October.
Placed order for 500 Bic Roller-ball pens with WayNet, our phone number
and our URL unscripted on them. Should arrive in about 3 weeks.
Log Analysis for
October and 3rd Quarter
Ran weekly and posted on the Members Only
page. Weekly averages are 2,410 visitors and 7,899 hits, a fairly
steady usage. Third quarter figures
remained steady with the 2nd Quarter '99 figures I expect an
increase in the user statistics next month, a flattening in December, and then another
jump as the cold, dark evenings of January descend upon us. October figures reflect a
212% increase
over the same time last year.
Achievements for September/October
- Continued work on re-design of
2nd and 3rd tier pages for WayNet.
- Spoke to the
Richmond Association of Realtors.
- Gathered information
and took it to E. Thomas Kemp to begin process of filing for new IRS
status.
- Ordered sign for
placement on N/S A Street, per Renee Oldham's offer last meeting.
- Changed the

- Spent a great deal
of time recruiting community leaders for our "Welcome"

On-Going Projects for the coming month
