Rich Cody gave the following report on what TCI has done the past year and what they are looking at doing in the future.
Executive Directors Report for February 23, 1998 New Basic Members: Brady, Ware & Schoenfeld, Inc. Marketing and Creative Services Endtime, Inc. Advertising Approximatly $280.00 was spent on ads that ran on Sunday and Wednesday in the Paladium-Item. A large ad (3 1/2" x 2 column) ran on Sunday, February 1, with a 1 2/" x 2 column ad running February 4, 8, 11, 15, 18, 22, 25. We also received a nice article written by Bill Engle on Friday, January 30. Due to the high cost of the large Sunday ad ($111 for one day!), my intention is to run the smaller 1 1/2" ad (perhaps a different version) on Sundays in March. That is the largest coverage day and since Monday is our day with the most hits - it makes sence to get our name and URL out there for people to check on at the begining of the week. Thursday appears to be the least visited day (Jerry Seinfeld night!) so I don't see a compelling reason to continue the Wednesday ads after our first "blitz". Log Anaylisis Check out a sample here. My plan, once it's up and running, is to post the past week, month, quarter, and yearly reports on the web for members to review. Most potential members I have met with have asked questions regarding our hits/visitors, etc. New Benefit and Change to Brochure February Achievements Updated the Levi Coffin site. Updated the Library and Reference site. Research and major update of the Did You Know...? section. Question regarding Mimi Chesterton.
