Mark LeBlanc Edition Launched

EcTownUSA (to) Chamber Nation News Update
New Branding, New System and Dealing with Member Retention

July 2008

I hope all of you are having a good summer and still managing to keep membership up during this economic bump.

Recently we've seen a major upswing in membership usage of the system. We feel that the economy is triggering members to use all of the tools they can find to help them succeed.

We know that keeping members is tough right now, so we're hopefully doing our part to help by providing a longer list of tangible member benefits and outstanding support. We're working with a record number of members who are seeking help in promoting their businesses online. The measurable results are impressive and getting much stronger every month.

On that note... I am pleased to announce some soon to be released enhancements to help your members promote their businesses like never before. But unlike our normal release of additional technology (yes that is coming too), we're now launching an educational system that will help your members define their business messaging and manage the process of growing their businesses. (see below)

Announcing the Mark LeBlanc Edition
"Growing Your Business"

I was a guest speaker of the SmallBusinessChamber.Com in Memphis Tennessee several months back. After I spoke to an audience at the small business expo, Mr. LeBlanc suggested that he and I should talk.

Over dinner I learned about Mark and his commitment to Chambers over the years to assist them in growing their members businesses.

Fortunately this relationship has blossomed into a rather exciting program that will be launched in August. This new program will be called Chamber Nation - Mark LeBlanc edition.

The entire program will absolutely help your members grow their businesses.

Mark is the President of the National Speakers Association (NSA) and author of the book "Growing Your Business" that we've transformed into a digital system soon to be available to thousands of members nationwide.

We invite you to read all about Mark LeBlanc and his long list of accomplishments by CLICKING HERE.

This new edition will provide a MAJOR upgrade to the member area, incorporates a FULL WEBSITE that replaces the current TCS pages (but no data is lost and automatically converted into the new system). Members will be able to do a whole lot more and includes a new SEO model that we believe will dramatically improve search results for members.

Although the TCS wizard will remain in tact, the system will offer a new area that includes an interactive business coach, developed using the proven Mark LeBlanc principals, downloadable eBook "growing your business" and a resource area that promotes some of your existing member businesses that can provide tools to help other members grow in your area (pretty unique in our opinion).

Once the member completes the interactive business coach, it produces a fantastic website that communicates their business better than ever online. With the new SUPER search engine optimization features, they will be promoted extensively online with the results to prove it.

A small license fee must be charged for this new service, but it will be quickly justified when you see what's included and able to demonstrate to prospective and current members. We believe that this new edition will truly help retain members during this rough economic period.

I invite you to contact me (Richard Scully) directly to discuss this program. Please feel free to call me at any time on my cell phone at: (925) 699-9997 as I look forward to showing this to you.

EcTownUSA is the Support Company, but Chamber Nation is our NEW BRAND

New Brand, Website and Services



EcTownUSA stood for "E-Chamber Town" and the "USA" was added to be patriotic just like Chambers of Commerce. Over time we've discovered that this name to most Chamber Executives meant we sold "E Commerce" services. Nothing is wrong with that, but it was limiting our ability to present what we're really up to... helping develop state-of-the-art programs designed to help Chambers grow and manage membership.

So this month, we voted as a company to change our branding to "Chamber Nation" which implies what we do much better... educate the entire country that Chamber of Commerce membership is one of the most important investments you can make to help grow your business.

With the edition of Mark LeBlanc we believe participating customers will have just what they need to improve membership sales, retention and most importantly a program that will positively help grow commerce in your area. After all you are a "Chamber of Commerce" !

Our Podcasting strategy is working well as we now have hundreds of Podcast subscribers and fantastic results thus far on iTunes. We thank all of the Chamber Executives who have participated thus far with many more soon to be recorded. If you are still waiting for your Podcast production we did fall a bit behind, but were now back on schedule and will be caught up soon.

You will notice from the new website that our focus is moving towards member education. The website now serves both the Chambers of Commerce and the members who are thinking about joining a Chamber to grow their business. We had to make this change as so many people were coming in from the Podcast and we're sure many of them are prospective members.

I hope you will take a minute to view the new website that can be found at www.ChamberNation.com. We invite any comments and suggestions.
We really appreciate so many of you that have been with us since we started and hope we're delivering outstanding services to each of you.


Sincerely,
Richard Scully, FounderEcTownUSA.Com, LLC.
