We are looking forward to another exciting year as we plan for the 2014-2015 edition of the Franklin County Chamber of Commerce Welcome Guide. This annual publication beautifully showcases the numerous assets and plentiful resources we have to offer in Greater Franklin County, including our Chamber Members. The Welcome Guide is a valuable tool used to highlight our region as an attractive place to live, work, play and do business! We are again publishing 14,000 copies of our eye-catching 8.5″ x 11″ full color guide, which will come out prior to Memorial Day in plenty of time to kick off the busy tourist season.

Participation in the Welcome Guide is an exclusive member benefit which provides real value to our members.

Here’s why:

Total distribution of 14,000 copies

Targeted distribution through the Maine Tourism Association’s seven visitor information centers from Kittery to Houlton

Electronic version available on franklincountymaine.org

Every FCCOC member is included in the Welcome Guide directory listing

Used as a recruitment tool by organizations such as Franklin Memorial Hospital, University of Maine at Farmington and Greater Franklin Development Corporation

Available at Franklin County town offices, other state Chambers, FCCOC office, lodging facilities, restaurants and all FCCOC member locations

Distributed weekly to potential visitors and relocation prospects
