2010 is Gaining Momentum!

Well, 2010 is certainly off to a brisk start! The New Year has signalled a fresh start for many local businesses and Betsy Linnell Marketing Management clients are no exception.

Many of our projects from the end of 2009 have now launched and we have lots of new stuff on the go for 2010.

AC Petroleum launched a brand new website right before the holidays. The site at www.acpetroleum.com showcases their new logo and look. The site was created in conjunction with Ink Design, provides information on the company's range of services as well as the ability for commercial customers to order their fuel deliveries online.

The Tourism Pemberton 2010 Media Gateway launched in late November and has received great reviews to date. Most recently, the story starter content was updated and a press release has been distributed locally to share news of the site with the community.

Spierings Automotive expanded in late 2009 opening a second service facility in Pemberton. The new shop located on Hwy #99 across from the Industrial park increases their capacity and range of services to better serve Pemberton and surrounding area. Spierings ran ads locally along with the distribution of a press release to local media. 2010 will see promotion of the new location continue. Stay tuned for more!

Finally, Whistler Dental has hired BLMM to develop a Strategic Marketing Plan for their busy dental practice. Welcome aboard! This plan will include a full situation analysis and strategic direction and action plan for the business.

We're also in discussion with several other local businesses - 2010 is going to be a great year. Stay tuned for more on what we're up to in the coming weeks.

AC Petroleum marked their new management of the Pioneer Junction Gas Station & Store in Pemberton today with a Grand Opening Celebration. Mayor Jordan Sturdy was on hand for a ribbon cutting ceremony and to cut the cake along with Councillors Lisa Ames and Susie Gimse. The event featured refreshments, face painting for kids of all ages and a draw for prizes.

The Grand Opening was scheduled as part of the Launch Campaign as recommended in the plan prepared for AC Petroleum by Betsy Linnell Marketing Management. Since taking over the management of the Pioneer Junction location, AC Petroleum has replaced the existing pumps with brand new state-of-the-at fuel dispensers. They have also re-stocked the store and are featuring local products where possible. Locally owned and operated AC Petroleum is proud to be a member of the local community an to offer an independent alternative for fuel.
