What you are buying
The people who sell the Tri-Cities, in one room, every week.
Every Thursday
The council gathers every Thursday morning, all year. Your brand is in the room each time.
Three cities
Agents who work Fremont, Union City and Newark, the people your customers already trust.
Beyond the room
The weekly e-blast, the social channels and the website carry your name past Thursday.
The sponsorship team
Two people, one call to make.
Luchie and Susan coordinate every sponsorship: which tier fits, what the annual term covers, and how to pay. Start with either.
Luchie Grissom
Meet Luchie
Susan Munkner
Meet SusanSponsorships are annual. Pay online through Zeffy from any tier above, or talk to Luchie or Susan; either will confirm what the term covers and when it starts. The Tri-Cities Marketing Council is a professional marketing council, not a charity: a sponsorship is ordinarily a business advertising expense rather than a charitable donation, and your tax professional has the final word on yours.
