Glasgow-Barren County
Chamber of Commerce
Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
Guide
A ribbon
cutting ceremony is held on your behalf to announce the
opening of a new business or a new location or expansion of
an existing business. The following are suggestions to make
this event a memorable occasion for your business and to
encourage others to become your “customer.”
- The
Chamber of Commerce does not charge to host a ribbon
cutting ceremony if your business is a member.
-
Call 270-651-3161 to schedule a date and time on the
Chamber calendar at least ten days prior to the event.
-
Prepare a written narrative about your business to the
Chamber prior to the event. Provide information
that may be of interest to the public. The Chamber will
edit as needed for press releases and the newsletter
article.
- The
Chamber will prepare a press release and submit to area
news media. Pictures of the ceremony will be taken by
Chamber staff and submitted to area newspapers for
publication. An article will also appear in the Chamber
newsletter before or after the event depending on the
date of the ceremony.
-
Advise the Chamber if the event is “by invitation only.”
- The
Chamber cannot guarantee a number of people that will
attend. It is in the best interest of the business to
advertise the event and/or invite the public and special
guests to attend. This may be done using posters, paid
ads, radio spots, etc.
You may choose to send
personal invitations to those of your choice such as
business partners, board of directors (if appropriate),
financial advisors, suppliers, family, and friends. The
Chamber will invite the Chamber Board of Directors and
members of the Ambassadors Club via e-mail.
- A
ribbon (bow and streamer) is provided by the Chamber.
You choose the color of the ribbon and notify the
Chamber prior to the event. The Chamber also provides
large scissors to cut the ribbon.
-
Agenda: The guests and business representatives are
asked to gather in front of the business for the
ceremony. This usually takes place out of doors, but
that is dependent on the weather. The owner reps stand
in the middle front holding the bow and the scissors.
Others gather around them for a picture. As the ribbon
is cut, the picture is taken.
Speakers: Chamber president
Glasgow
Mayor or representative
County Judge
Executive or representative
Owner/Operator—may want to recognize or
introduce staff at this
time.
-
For
consideration:
a)
Refreshments:
Many businesses offer refreshments immediately following the
ceremony.
b)
Door prizes:
You may want to give away door prizes immediately following
the ceremony. The entries provide a record of who attended
if you want to make contact with guests at a later date.
Keep in mind that Chamber Gift Certificates are available
for purchase in any amount and honored by most businesses in
the community.
Working together . . . building a better
community.br>
