Let's Put Jasper on the Map
Google & Jasper-Lake Sam Rayburn Chamber of Commerce
This will be a hands on workshop where you can learn how to put your business correctly on Google Maps. Since 2011, our Get Your Business Online team has been on a mission to make it fast, easy, and free for businesses to get online. Only 37% of businesses have claimed a local business listing on a search engine - that's a lot of missing information. And, with 4 out of 5 people using search engines to find local info like business hours and directions, it also means a lot missed opportunities for local businesses.

Customer Relationship Management - Redux
Round Table Discussion
Last December we had a lively presentation and discussion about using customer data to help you enhance your customer relationships and grow your business. We want to further explore this area that is partly driven by technology and partly by your own imagination. Whether you're using software that costs tens of thousands of dollars - or a tickler file - come be a part and learn from others and/or teach us a few things!
