      HELPING BUSINESSES SUCCEED SO THAT OUR COMMUNITY PROSPERS

Dear Coronado Business Community Members,

Welcome to 2020 and all the exciting possibilities the new decade brings!

Speaking of new, we have a new team in place with the dynamic Rena Clancy of the Ritz Carlton Arizona heading up Membership, supported by former Coronado Chamber of Commerce Board Member and businesswoman extraordinaire Donna Ball. Our new Communications & Marketing Coordinator, Belinda Jones, comes from a magazine journalism background and has written multiple bestselling novels for Random House UK - now she wants to get the word out about your business!

We are all committed to boosting the vitality of our island's hospitality-related shops, services and restaurants, and our strategy begins with these three key marketing initiatives:


1. The Chamber has produced a new ORANGE AVE branded shopping and dining guide to target guests of the Coronado hotels. One side features a handy map, the other gives free promotion to businesses on Orange Avenue and at Ferry Landing.​ If you would like to offer these brochures to your customers, either pop by the Chamber at 1125 Tenth St or request to have a batch delivered to your door. 

2. The Chamber's website - www.CoronadoChamber.com - has undergone an update and refresh with new photography, a new calendaring facility where you can directly submit your events, and the ability to add social media connection and videos to your Business Directory listing. We will also be introducing Member Q&As so you can get to know your fellow Chamber of Commerce members and share more about the personalities powering your business.

3. The Chamber has taken over responsibility for the www.CoronadoVisitorCenter.com website. Originally created five years ago as a joint venture between the Coronado Historical Association (CHA) Visitor Center and Discover Coronado, it is currently being redesigned by Raindrop Marketing to reflect our "state of the art" hospitality. With this comes a huge opportunity for Chamber members to be spotlighted and showcased throughout the new content, ranging from Listings to Themed Itineraries. Look for the impressive new design coming in Summer 2020.​

Funding for these projects comes from membership dues and events, a $60,000 grant from Discover Coronado, and a $15,000 grant from the City of Coronado. 

​We look forward to working closely with you over the coming year and look forward to seeing you in person again very soon!


​




Sincerely, 
Sue Gillingham
Executive Director
