I know it seems early, but we have started working on the Santa Buck Giveaway retail promotion. This is the largest retail event, of its kind, in Oklahoma and Kansas.

If you are a chamber member, please consider supporting this important retail event.

Here are the details: The giveaway night is Thursday, Dec. 21, starting at 7 p.m. All of our local radio stations will participate. The fee to be a participant is $250. Payment deadline is Oct.15, 2017.

For your participation, your business will receive radio, TV, chamber web site, newspaper and Facebook advertising, both local and area wide. You will receive your first roll of tickets with additional rolls $6 per roll. You will also receive a window poster showing you are a Santa Buck Giveaway participant. The program kicks off Saturday, Nov. 4.

Benefits of participation include: Prizes given in Santa Bucks and only good at participating businesses. This promotes increased sales during this important retail time of year. This promotion keeps local shoppers in Ponca City. It also brings in shoppers from the surrounding trade areas.

A joint retail promotion means a stronger impact on our economy. This is a low cost way to enhance your holiday marketing. This is an easy promotion for our members – the Chamber does the work for you.

This helps increase our city sales tax revenue. This is a great way for you to say thank you to your customers for shopping with your business.

If you have any questions, please phone the Chamber Office at 765-4400. The more participants with Santa Buck Giveaway the more marketing we can do for Ponca City and for your business. PLEASE SAY YES!
