Woodstock Chamber Unveil New Website

Wednesday, 19 June 2013 at 11:10

The Woodstock District Chamber of Commerce website has a new look. A new site, designed by Adam McLaughlin of Fresh Idea Websites, along with the Chamber General Manager Martha Dennis, was unveiled during their Annual General Meeting Wednesday morning. The site set up in an icon format similar to Windows 8 or tablet will allow the Chamber to update information and keep members informed in real time. According to Chamber President, Ted Beynen, the website was part of their focus during their Strategic Planning Process. "One of the things we discovered through our Strategic Planning Process is we did a lot of things very well, but we didn't tell the community or the membership that we did it well. For example, advocating for other businesses; one of the things coming in when I became President of the Chamber, I didn't think we were doing a very good job at all and when we went through the process for the Strategic Planning and we started listing out all of the actual things we did advocate for, we've done a fantastic job. We just don't tell anybody. So hopefully we're able to use the website as a medium to improve that". Keynote speaker for the event, Ontario Chamber of Commerce Chair Ann Adair says the new site services businesses and members well. "I think it's the one-stop-shop for issues that you might have as a new business starting in Woodstock or you might be concerned about existing issues and it's just one place that you can go, easy access and it's organized in a way that makes sense to you as a business". The new site also has a link for the Chamber's Annual Business of Excellence Awards where the public can place nominations for this year's event. Click here to visit the newly designed website.
