Just in time for the Oscars… it’s the first day of filming at A Perfect Smile! We are in the process of creating a video that celebrates the stories of some of our patients. We are hoping these stories will help others understand what patients experience at our office as they receive different types of dental treatments. We hope this will be a useful tool in helping you make decisions about dental care and moving toward you own optimal dental health. If you have questions or interested in being apart of this project, please email me, sarah@portlandmainedentist.com

Cause Marketing Roundtable: Creating strategic partnerships to increase your marketing effectiveness in 2009
Sponsored by A Perfect Smile and the Maine Marketing  Association

Does your company need a brand image boost? Are you looking for a way to improve employee and customer satisfaction and loyalty? Cause related marketing creates a win-win-win business situation: the organization you support gets income it would not otherwise receive, your business is viewed in a positive light while serving more customers, and consumers see their purchase dollars helping a favorite cause or charity.

Join Sarah Nelson for a facilitated discussion on the value of cause marketing in today’s marketing mix on Thursday, February 5, 2009 from 4:30 – 6:30 p.m. at A Perfect Smile located at 168 US Route 1 in Falmouth. The roundtable begins promptly at 4:30 p.m. with a 45 minute networking reception beginning at 5:45 p.m.

The session will help you brainstorm a plan of action for your company including setting priorities, finding the right partner for your business and establishing measurements to insure return on investment. Key topics to be discussed include:

How cause marketing works
Why it makes sense for businesses
Ethical considerations
Attendees will leave this session with share ideas and a fresh perspective on their own business.

Registration is required. The cost is $10 for Maine Marketing Association members and  A Perfect Smile patients and $15 for non-members.

To register or for more information about the event, please contact Sarah Nelson at sarah@focus-evolve-succeed.com or call 206.419.5407
